Why would he go to a club that looks like it may finish below us?

Also what kind of reputation do you have after about a dozen games given the cost of compensation AND TB's growing reputation for stopping big clubs? Man City didn't get Cucarella and arsenal came unstuck a couple of weeks ago.

Even when things are going fantastic you will always have people who find a way to wet the bed with mental gymnastics.

Nothing burger.

A case of someone putting two and two together and coming up with 137 l think.

Just because Antonio Conte is resting at home after his operation do you autom atically seem to assume that Spurs are going to look to changing their manager?

Conte’s contract is up at the end of the season and it’s been widely reported he’s held off renewing for any further seasons.

It wouldn’t be a far stretch to assume RDZ would be on their short list for the summer.

They should finish above us, as they have done for as long as I know, and they have a much bigger budget to attract new players and keep them and progress in the future.

Thomas Frank is doing a fantastic job but there's no doubt whose football is easier on the eye.
An attractive style of play didn't enter their thinking when appointing Mourinho or Conte.

Under Ardiles was probably the last time they were anything approaching flair.

Surely still too early to say if de zerbi is good enough. Would be a pretty mad move.

Would be a terrible move for de zerbi under current owners. Expectation is too high for their budget.

But Conte and Mourinho had a proven track record of winning trophies.

I'm fairly certain Conte would do anything to get out of Spurs - sure dying is a bit extreme but he definitely wants out.

He's not been looking himself after the operation. Hope he gets the time he needs and makes a good recovery.

'Conte to remain in Italy after post-operation check | Stellini takes charge'


You just know Spurs would come a knocking for RDZ if Conte not fit to continue. Recent history tells us that our succession planning is superb but could we really pull another gem out of the bag?

Is there any chance RDZ would would want to stan or like Potter would the lure of the wages be too strong to resist?
Nothing to see here. He just returned to work about a month early!
