Expand They came up against a better France team in 2018, and lost narrowly to a very good Italy team at the Euros. As good as they are, it’s taken the best team in the tournament each time to knock them out. Edited November 1, 2021 by Optimistic Nut Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happinesstan Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 Going to look weird after we spend 3 weeks working on getting the right man, only to sign Nuno the day after he's fired. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

cookidge Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 Wouldn't go with Nuno right now. It's unlikely that he's been watching / analysing the team like the other prospective candidates will have. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

PlymouthGeordie Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 How have Spurs pretty much appointed Conte already? I thought a new manager took at least 3 weeks to appoint? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought a new manager took at least 3 weeks to appoint? Expand They’re a more attractive club right now due to league position, players, infrastructure. Plus the owners have been there longer than three weeks and have spoken to Conte for longer than that- they even interviewed him in the summer- they just needed to pick up where they left off. Still not done though- can’t see them having too much cash to spend which Conte would want, and not sure that Conte and Levy would be best buddies with their individual personalities. He turned them down in the summer, after all. We’ll see. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skeletor Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 They were too slow to sack Bruce and the new manager search is taking too long. We're not in an easy mid table position at the end of the day. We're a hopeless team who looks like they won't win a game all season without big changes and we're already over a quarter of the way through the season.

wormy Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 I'd take Nuno.

Ganninup Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 Spurs Sacking a decent coach and possibly appointing the best around instead within days. Us taking an age to sack a guy about as much use as a teabag in a tsunami and leaving a guy who was head assistant coach or whatever the fuck during a period of the worst shapeless,styleless period in my time supporting (1989) to take charge of more than one game whilst struggling to make an appointment is not a good look.
