VillaChris Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 30 minutes ago, tom_avfc said: Perfect timing for Mourinho to kick up a fuss and get himself sacked really. He's not really been backed brilliantly there and isn't doing the best of jobs but by leaving "because of the Super League" he can go with his reputation enhanced from the whole thing. I don't doubt that all of the managers involved are against the Super League as a concept but for Mourinho in particular its the perfect get out of Spurs card that he's been waiting for. Not a fan of him any longer but fair play if he stood up for his football principles and they sacked him on the spot (I know he'd have been sacked regardless end of season but still..) Gone up in my estimation if that's true. Hopefully a few more managers stand up for what's right for football in next few weeks, Klopp is already on record as being dead against any super league so that's one to watch. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say he's gutted he's missing the league cup final, a chance to save face. you can imagine the board meeting Levy "how can we replace the revenue from the CL that we're not going to get?" mr head of marketing "get me jose and an amazon documentary" it was a proper look at us still being relevant move, same with the bale loan, neither have worked, now they're going to have to actually do something, they need a top tier manager and 2 or 3 top players to go anywhere, where will they get the money from? i guess they dont need that £350m superleague ground improvement pot... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at the destruction he's left behind him where ever he's been, his treatment of Eva Canerio was incredibly bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 Think Brendan Rodgers is a good bet to be next Spurs manager. Leicester probably going to miss out on top 4 again so will probably feel like he's taken them to their limit. Has top level managerial experience and can improve players on the training pitch so fits the Spurs model for next 5 years pretty well. Similar to when they picked up Pochettino in 2014. Haven't looked at the odds yet but would imagine he's favourite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are being carried by Kane and Son to a far greater degree than we are by Grealish or even United are by Bruno. If Son and Kane go, which is looking increasingly likely, they've only got about 3 players who are top 6 quality imo. We've got at least that many. How many of their first XI would you swap for ours? That stadium is a weight around their neck too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't need to win another game of football in their existence as they'll make their money from the Super League regardless of results.

useless Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 They were being linked with Nuno last week, would be surprisng with Wolves' form this season, and he's quite a similar manager Mourinho. If that did happen, Mourinho would probably be then linked to Wolves given the Mendes connection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
