brummie Posted May 29, 2023 Share Posted May 29, 2023 Palace have always struck me as a sort of 1980s manufactured nothingness. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted May 31, 2023 Share Posted May 31, 2023 Think that's a solid move for Potter. Palace spend fairly decent money on good players, and also have a pretty good pipeline for young players in their area. Getting to work with Eze, Olise, Edouard, Doucoure, Guehi, Anderson, Mitchell and Zaha is well worthwhile for him. Could see him doing well with that bunch for sure.

TRon Posted June 1, 2023 Share Posted June 1, 2023 Don't think anyone can do much at Spurs these days, they've hired some of the best managers around, but Levy always manages to find some way of sticking hurdles in their path. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted June 1, 2023 Share Posted June 1, 2023 Without Kane they're a mid-table club, so they will have to set their targets and ambitions accordingly for next season. A season of building, without any major crises, followed by Europa League would be a good year IMO. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kimbo Posted June 1, 2023 Share Posted June 1, 2023 The SPL probably isn’t even in the top 15 leagues in Europe, the championship is a stronger and more competitive league. Even Neil Lennon won it 5 times with Celtic and he was a horrible manager. Spurs hiring this guy would be a big gamble, but that’s good news for us.

Guest Posted June 1, 2023 Share Posted June 1, 2023 He might be able to keep them around 7-8th rather than them completely flopping. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted June 1, 2023 Share Posted June 1, 2023 To be fair Spurs have recently appointed two expensive 'sure thing' high profile managers in Mourinho and Conte and both have been rubbish. They might as well gamble on somebody a bit more left field. Poch had a less impressive career record when they went for him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

scotia1997 Posted June 1, 2023 Share Posted June 1, 2023 I'm gutted that we are losing Ange, great manager very set in his way. Took us through 4 transfer windows essentially rebuilding our first team, in previous years we've been lucky to bring in 2 players that make a difference to our team. A massive loss for Celtic and well deserved with the job he has done since coming in.. he was totally written off by the media when arriving and has caused havoc since arriving up here. He's got a huge job on his hands though at Tottenham, massive rebuild due there but if he's able to hold on to players like Kane, Son, Hojberg etc then he will definitely bring in players to help them out. He has major contacts in Asia and has brought a few stars into our squad. Good luck to him, he deserves every success as long as he's backed properly by the prick Levy.

But it's also only fair to point out that they managed to get rid of Poch when he probably needed a bit of extra support to win trophies, and they decided to get Mourinho instead, then stopped HIM from winning a trophy purely out of spite.

Expand Possibly, but equally loads of average managers have got average teams to top half finishes. I don't think at face value there's a huge difference between Poch finishing 8th with Southampton and Postecoglu's record in Scotland, Japan, Oz and at international level. It comes down ultimately to whether they think the manager has the character and acumen to step up. Personally I have no idea if he does - but I wouldn't rule the bloke out completely based on his track record. He has at least had coaching success on a few different continents and cultural environments. Edited June 1, 2023 by ponsaelius Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 1, 2023 Share Posted June 1, 2023 I think what Poch did with Southampton after taking over from Adkins was remarkable tbh. Transformed them from a mediocre team, to a high pressing unit playing good football. Laid down the foundation for Koeman. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted June 1, 2023 Share Posted June 1, 2023 Spurs just seem to be throwing darts when it comes to managers these days; there's an incredibly desperate feel about it all. If they're going to establish any stability whatsoever then they need to: A, appoint a manager who is both capable of rebuilding the squad and is happy to be subservient to Daniel and B, recalibrate their short-term expectations. If they don't do both of those things then they'll struggle to retain a manager for more than six months. They're lightyears away from being a Champions League outfit at the moment.

Kid Icarus Posted June 1, 2023 Share Posted June 1, 2023 Personally think Spurs' DoF is the much more important appointment for them at the moment. There's a huge Kane and Son shaped hole to fill in the next couple of years. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
