I could be wrong but I think it’s the case that when managers take new jobs whatever wages are still owed to them under their previous contracts are extinguished. Suppose it would depend on the wording of the specific contract in question but I’m sure I’ve seen that be the case in the past.

Poch is effectively on gardening leave and hasn’t been outright dismissed I believe. Him and his staff are continuing to be paid their monthly wage instead of full compensation for what was left of their tenure. When they sign for a new club, that club will still owe us compensation or something to that effect

Finally excited for a PL game and not dreading one watching turgid football and praying somehow we scrape a win.

It's a culture thing, the Portuguese/Spanish are more hands on, but as you said it's meant to be a sign of affection nothing sinister, like they greet people with kisses on both sides of the cheek, in the UK guys don't do that, but in other parts of Europe it's normal.
Really?

But does he sweat and like Pizza Express?

"Almost impossible task, off course. But I think Mourinho is the man who can manage to do it. My prediction: Mourinho will be the first human being in the history who manages to getting into a conflict with Heung-Min Son." ?

:LOL: :LOL: :LOL:

Son is such a universally liked bloke that I’m sure even Andre Gomes sent him an apology letter stating “I’m sorry my broken ankle caused you distress. Thoughts and prayers mate”

I know we are some norwegians here. My impression from internet now is that most norwegian Spurs fans are shocked and devastated over the hiring of Mourinho. While I get the impression from this english/International forum here, that many of us are quite happy and optimistic about our new manager. Is that the right impression? Mourinho might be more hated in Scandinavian than in UK? I don't know..?

Same with the Swedish ones, but they seem to be very sentimental. Can't see a lot of arguments except Poch got us to a CL final and Levy is a twat.

That makes me really despise Levy. It's not as bad as what he did to Martin Jol....nothing will top that level of public humiliation.

It was on Levy's watch that farcical stadium delay dragged on month after month. That led to apathy in the fanbase and no doubt apathy in the dressing room. He should be out of a job.

Wow. Only the 8 dohs and 2 wtfs for posting two criticisms of the dear leader. This place is going to the dogs.

A very famous norwegian author (Jo Nesbø) was quoted in newspaper today saying this is like swapping Luke Skywalker with Darth Vader.. Well, I like Darth Vader! ⛧

I see Jose as more like Harry Hole. Unconventional and pisses people off, but gets the job done (y)

No ndombele in that training session

definitely there in the earlier parts - assume he was part of a separate group doing fitness away from the Mourinho group.

when they all gather for the first time you can see Jan in the background jogging. The fitness group:geek:
