Looks like it's going to be Antonio Conte - can't see him getting on with Levy for very long but a fine coach nonetheless.

Wonder if they will run a book on when the first bust up happens with Levy ? If the odds are good might have a flutter.

Will not be looking forward to playing against Conte…

Indeed not but I'd have been a lot more concerned if he'd gone to United (Manchester that is).

Good point! Get the only decent manager available installed at a team with one weapon and that’s one that’s sulking, then sack Ole. Perfect. That’s deep and devious thinking there my friend, I like it.

Steve Bruce is available. He is a top manager with 1,000 matches of experience.

 

[Spraggons Den]

Son is a pretty special player for Spurs, I just think it is a very unhappy ship.

Yes, Son and Mora are class players as is Kane on his day but they haven’t been the same since Ericsson left.

If he does take over at Spurs, I'm hoping he's more successful than the two previous Chelsea managerial hand-me-downs that have washed up at Tottenham.

Once we've done with 'em, they ain't much use to anyone anymore

Don't take it personally - AVB's been crap wherever he's gone.

Were top of the league for employing daft managers for daft reasons and also for buying decent ones but hamstringing them with overpriced players who were great a few years ago

True - also true - we're now totl for all the right reasons.

 

[martin dawson]

Conte doesn’t want to take over a time mid season.

Will we now see similar hand-wringing from the media and internet trolls now Spurs have sacked their manager and after only 4 months. Or pehaps he’s not as great a bloke as cabbage and nowhere near as brilliant at football management.

They’ll be going after Rafa next. Or the Everton fans will.

Take those 3 out and that Spurs squad looks very ordinary.

 

[Woodface]

Rafa’s honeymoon period is officially over.

Chris Sutton seems to agree with you on the BBC website.

They were better in the second half but they've got problems and the Benitez factor is a huge problem for them. A lot of fans didn't want him.

In the first half they came with very little intent. He's got real issues. Under Benitez they're not going to be on the front foot and this is going to grow and grow and grow.

 

[Weekender]

Emery may be emerging...he'd very much do for me.

 

[Woodface]

I am probably wrong then?

About Lampard, Gerrard and Martinez? Hopefully.
