AVB = Ramos the second.

He will piss off the players and they wont want to play for him. You can get away with it at Porto but not at Spurs. I hope to god I'm wrong.

I think we have to accept that this is a possibility ....hopefully he's learned something at Chelski tho .

Ever tried smiling? :D Your post proves my point. I highly doubt you're the only person who knows his past, and I highly doubt DL and Co don't either, and in my opinion the players themselves know more than anyone and have been consulted before DL made the approach to AVB thus avoiding your scenario. DL wouldn't bring in a manager if he thought those kind of petty problems would arise.

I find that highly doubtful if I'm honest. Never heard of ANY business that would consult its staff on a suitable individual to manage them. This may be Football but DL is a businessman first and foremost. Consulting the staff would go a long way to undermining his own credibility.

"get away with it at Porto" = "win three trophies in your first season"
"I hope to god I'm wrong" = "I hope to god I'm right so that I can say I told you so."

I do wish people would stop calling Modric "rat face". He's still a spurs player and has been the best player to wear a spurs shirt since Ginola left. He has NEVER said he was spurs through and through so why we should feel betrayed that he wants to go to RM or play in the Champions League is beyond me.

He has given his all when he has played and guided us to our best ever premier league finishes since he joined the club. The only times he has looked less than perfect is after recovering from breakling his leg and towards the end of the season when he suffered from being a virtual ever present and our only creative spark in CM.

I know he agitated for a move last year but he never went on strike and got on with it despite his obvious frustration with Levy. He won't be remembered as a club Legend because of it but I don't think he wanted it either.

Insulting him is churlish and beneath us. Please stop.

I didn't use it in an offensive way so I apologize if it offended you, If you took the time to read the rest of my post you'd see I praised his efforts for us and I hope he kicks the shit out of Xavi all season if he moves to RM :) He is the best box to box midfielder and playmaker ( Bar messi ) in the world and will only get better. It's only a nickname :)

Where's today's round up? I can't start doing any work until I have read today's round up! So many new posts in the ITK thread...mmm! So, for now can we just summarise as AVB will be manager, we are signing Verts and Budgen and hoping to bring in some more middies and a couple of decent quality strikers...? That'll do.

Think the summary if i got the gist right, is:

It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life
For Spurs
And I'm feeling good

Not at all, if we do get him I'll support him 100% and be absolutely gutted if he is a failure. You can look through my posts I doubt you'll find one slagging off anyone at Spurs.
