Pfft, the fee is fuck all… half a Jack Clarke! Any commentator saying that’s a problem is kidding themselves.

I’m more worried about Paratici - the guy who recommended Nuno & Gattuso and seems to not like possession-based football - still having Levy’s ear on this appointment.

Blatantly true aswell , otherwise why would Enrique's name be hanging around like this. Was always Paratici's pick . That was confirmed all across the media

Dutch journo, Marcel van der Kraan has just said on SSN that he thinks it will be tough for Spurs to get him out of his contract because his release clause isnt active until next season. Apparently Leeds and Palace both tried back in February and 5m euros wasnt enough to do it.

Beyond that he gave him a GLOWING review, having followed Feyenord for 40 years and before that Ajax when Cruyff was manager. He mentioned Pep being a follower of Cruyff and said that Slot is the closest to that he's seen. Described him as a Pep style manager, super attacking, phenomenal coach that the players love and the Feyenord fans can't believe what they've seen over the time he's been head coach.

Player contacts normally run until end of June, his probably similar. So next season starts Jul 1?

If he doesn't like possession based football why on Earth would he recommend Enrique.

If they really like Slot (there's a reason he's high up on the list) and he wants to come, then it shouldn't matter who comes available now.

That's your man, don't deviate
and to add.

How can you expect to have stability or success if you let other factors effect a decision you have made or likely about to make?

Pretty much every club who is having success or is on the right path has been decisive and not let things waver.

Benfica identified Schmidt with data and once they spoke to him they were 100% convinced. Didn't matter of a 'better' coach became available.

Brighton have been decisive from their list and it shows.

Even Arsenal were not 100% on Emery and talked to Arteta too, it ended up being the wrong choice but they were able to rectify it.

United knew early on they wanted Ten Hag and didn't waver.

This is why it so important you ket the data analysts identify the best options. From that you do interviews etc to see who stands out and then you decide. Final. No indecision

I mean yeah Enrique certainly doesn't like possession based football.

It's going to be easy getting him out of his contract, that won't a problem imo

Have covered my bets enough that if it's one of Slot, Nagelsmann or Amorim I'm golden.

Anyone else and the wife's going without a birthday present this year.

I’m calling bullshit on the paratici rumours. Why would we risk getting in trouble with the authorities by keeping him around in the background involved in our discussions, even informally?
It makes no sense at all. The media are probably including Enrique because he was spoken to in the past and until we appoint someone or categorically rule him out, they are going to mention him.

DeZerbi had been my wish, but got to like Slot from that interview, if he can bring his Feyenord tactics to success in north London then all for it.
Yidarne is next level shit.

And why would we be so stupid as to do that in a way that allows any 'journalist' to find that out. I know we can actually be that fucking stupid but not that stupid, put it all together and none of it adds up.

There’s a real undertone to your messages giving the impression you know exactly what’s going on 😂

Cock tease!!!
