I'm convinced!

Now explain how we're going to persuade him to come to the Lane.

Jesus,I am convinced as well.
He sounds like the manager of all our dreams.

What about a suitcase full of bank notes?
I wonder how that would do for starters.

Players would be dreading this as well in my opinion... I have seen the mumblings from Sherwood that the players are tired and suggestions that AVB's training sessions are to blame. Doesn't bode well for Simeone, Pochettino or whoever would come in...

Really does need to be a whole change in the ethos of everything associated with the club.

At the time, I couldn't believe how knackered our players looked in the Pool game.
Our conditioning was shocking compared to their players.

I said this the other night, strange that Sherwood was then moaning that the players weren't fit enough to carry out his "run araaand a lot" strategy against West Ham. he then blathered on about "resting in possession" which again, is kind of what people have been moaning about in a roundabout way.

Bullshit baffles fools and all that.

Look at Paulinho this last few months,Brazilian players are some of the fittest,bets conditioned players in the world yet he looks like he has been run into the ground.

There has been something seriously wrong with the coaching of these players and also look at the horrendous amount of injuries our squad has.
It stinks.

Simeone would be a fantastic but very unlikely appointment.

Personally I think our best bet is for Levy to bribe someone on the Swansea board for the name of the manager they've got lined up when somebody nicks Laudrup.

This guy is top class but we may as well discuss signing messi as if am honest at the moment we are a step down to AM. He has got them from mediocre to top 3 losing aguero then falcao and now looks like costa but it shows he knows a good goalscorer!

they sold ageuro for 40m and spent that 40m on falcao ... straight forward .. what will spurs and levy and his transfer committee will do is buy atleast 4 players with each for 10m by that 40m pound who has the potential to reach but they need time .. so we will struggle !!

They would have to pay Moyes near £25million to sack him
Yeah that could very well be the case, but missing out on CL would easily lead to a reduction in yearly turnover between £70-100 m. Not to mention longterm effects. Find it doubtful that £25 m would affect their decision making too much.
