The Daily ITK & Harry Hokey-Cokey Discussion thread 13th June 2012

[Spurvert]

I don't care for the media condemnation.

Every one of them has an agenda.

All that matters is we move forward from this and I'm certain we will.

According to latest itk fro Aqyid it's klinsmanm. Would be disappointed if true. Prodigal sons returning as managers rarely work out

Pep?!?

 

[arnoldlayne]

What about Marcelo Bielsa?

contract extension with Bilbao

 

[Dan Ashcroft]

I'm still waiting to hear about the other members of staff.

I'd imagine


Gone: Bond, Jordan, Sherwood, Ferdinand

Staying: Allen, Inglethorpe

Debatable: Parks (mainly depending if the new guy wants to bring his own GK coach)

 

[stevenb7]

Where did akqayid say that??

Twitter thread I think

 

[matrixity]

i cant see how klinsman can attract the big na,es and the bales/Modric wanting to stay. Hasnt done anything for years as he prefered life in thhe usa. I really hope its not true.

Can't see this he loves California and is enjoying the project with the USA by all accounts.

Pep?!?

di Matteo!?!

 

[VincenzoCoccotti]

Klinsmann would be a bad move, was nothing more than a figurehead at Germany, sucked at Bayern and as we saw with Hoddle and Ardiles never appoint people for sentimental reasons

 

[cockeral]

Pep?!?

Hoddle, ardiles. Need I say more

 

[Qualsonic]

Pep?!?

Conte ?!?

 

[Indisguise]

Who's most like Harry but better?

 

[JUSTINSIGNAL]

I can't see it being Ancellotti. The compensation we have to pay PSG would be astronomical.

Hope not comes across as a intelligent coach/future manager from what I heard from him and stuff about him

I read somewhere that Blanc's contract expires soon, 2/3 weeks. Could tie in nicely !!!

damn good shout
just saw this on the wiki
" On 26 June, French media confirmed that Blanc had signed a two-year contract with the Federation to lead the team to UEFA Euro 2012. The deal was finalized a week later and Blanc was officially named as manager of the team on 2 July.[15][16]"
so 2 years from july 2nd?

Roy hodgeson???

Klinsmann is a DoF, not a coach.

Klinsmann as DoF and Low as coach would be amazing. They would transform our whole culture, just like they did with German football a decade ago. Won't happen though.

 

[arnoldlayne]

Samuel loves Redknapp as he is West ham through and through, consequently he also hates us.

He also talks utter drivel & for the record Burkinshaw wasn't sacked

Yes Redknapp did very well but something has happened to provoke Levy's actions

it's very little to do with fans or message boards either (at least Samuels admitted he gets his info from message boards)

 

[Hotspur_Hero]

No chance of Klinsmann. The US side is clearly a work in progress and he doesn't seem like the type to jump ship in he middle of his own project. With World Cup qualification having just started rather poorly, Jurgen's job is only just now really starting. In my opinion, we have more of a chance of signing Messi than Klinsmann at this point in time. He doesn't want to leave, and US Soccer and Gulati don't want him to leave. He took the job, not because of the money being offered, but because he wanted to really set something special up. He wanted to change everything about US soccer from the ground up. He isn't the type to just dump that after a year in charge and two games into qualification. He has stated he loves it in California and his wife and kids are Americans. He stated that he had plenty of offers all over Europe after being let go by Bayern, but that he only wanted to move home. Loyalty to Spurs, which I doubt runs that deep, is the only reason I could see him even consider taking the job.​
