Seems very similar vibes to when we hired Kinnear out the blue if it ends up being Hoddle like.

 

Whole thing feels like us in 09, heading towards relegation and one last hope with Shearer.

 

As funny as it would be to see them relegated, theyd walk the Championship next season, theyd have a great time (09/10 and 16/17) are probably my favourite seasons ever supporting us and id expect Tottenham to have the same

 

Will probably end up being good for them to have a season like that, come back up happy, have a clear out, certainly did us no harm and theyre just a big a club as us with the finances etc.

 

The days of huge clubs going down and staying down, unless financial ruin like Leeds, are over with how the finances and parachute payments etc are these days.

im not certain Spurs would come straight back up, we had a unique set of circumstances on both occasions which set us up well to go up but only time will tell if something similar would happen at Spurs

It wouldn't be the worst idea for Spurs to pay attention to what's been going on at Celtic this season.

When they hired O'Neill, everyone laughed at the idea of a TalkSport pundit going back into management but in fact all he did was simply the game for them and use his very good man management skills to elevate the players a few levels above what they'd sloped down into, of course he was supported by a back room staff who were all semi competent as well.

Then they hired Nancy, a manager completely wedded to a system none of the players knew and some were simply incapable of learning in the short time.

 

Now I'm not comparing De Zerbi to Nancy or even Spurs to Celtic for that matter, it just seems that there's a time and place to hire a revolutionary "system" manager, and it's not when you're teetering on the brink of relegation with a crap squad most of whom have chucked it. It's too late to introduce new ideas/formations, the best you can hope for is finding a motivator who makes the players feel 10 foot tall and ready to run through brick walls

Hope they appoint De Zerbi, get relegated and have to pay him a large pay off and then they end up with Ryan Mason in the Championship who steadies the ship and keeps them there for three seasons before they’re relegated to league one

De Zerbi is class, he will keep them up, get screwed by the board in the summer and they wont kick on as much as he wants and his stock will be at an all time high in 12 months.

Is those unique set or circumstances being we had by far the highest wage bill and best squad in the league both times?

 

Spurs would obviously cruise the Championship.

I thought Pochettino was all but a done deal for the summer regardless of what division they were in. 

 

Think I'd actually rather have Pochettino and do a year in the Championship than De Zerbi.

Aye if they binned off the vast majority of their “stars/saleable assets/bellends” they’d still have a decent core of good enough players for the league plus could do what we did and buy or loan some established older lads who are just better than the rest.

 

Kinsky

Spence, Long throw guy, DragonballZ, Phillips, Vuskevic, Davies, that Brazilian lad

Gallacher, Gray, Madders, Sarr, 

Moore, Yang, Solomon, Odobert

 

Quite a lot of whom have already played in (and in cases got promoted from) the league.


Hopefully we’re proven wrong and they go bust as a football club and become a full time stadium and events operation.
