The talk of Ange to Spurs has really picked up tonight. He's a clear favourite now, Celtic fans are upset and Spurs fans are trying to trend #NoToPostecoglu. 

I think Ange has to take the job but it's going to be tough. Realistically Spurs shouldn't finish higher than 7th next year as there are clearly 6 clubs that will spend a lot more money. But if he finishes 7th he wont survive.

Love the though going into your post mate

Just something I disagree with here is that Leeds just isn't a club you want to go to at the moment. I have followed Leeds since the Harr/Duke days and all through relegation and survival and at the moment the club is in a poor, poor state.

1. The management is gormless. They spent the whole last year distracted by the 49ers takeover and Radrizzani just wants his pay day. And good on him, he stabilised the club and wants to get something back from that. But how it played out was that 2 seasons ago we survive relegation on the final day of the season and our transfers goes with us selling 90 million euro worth of footballer in Raphinha and Phillips, most of the money goes into the bank and we bring in 5 million of footballers to replace it. Is that a club that survived relegation by a point? Then running concurrently we have this rediculous dreamy idea of redeveloping Elland Rd and the management's "plan" was, shit you not, statistically if you survive the first 3 years, you stay up, so let's start a build in year 4. And no players to back that up after surviving relo in year 2.

2. Look at what happens to Marcelo. He built our team in the championship and it's probably unknown to the general masses who don't have championship football sprawled over their screens like EPL, but in the 2 years before promotion, we were playing some football that was just premeditated murder on the pitch, utterly fucking teams up and playing with our food. We get to the EPL and finish a few points out of Europe, then what do we get after that? No players to maintain it and Bielsa gets arsed for not getting blood from a stone.

3. We take in an untested American manager who, credit to him, helps us beat relegation and then gets the nod to rebuild the squad, but being the tight arses we are, we try moneyballing it with a little success - not immediate successes, but top long term bets like Sinisterra and Gnonto who will be great EPL players except we won't fuckin be there in 5 years, but our key attacking platform is based on an underperforming Rodrigo whom we just assume has to be the main man because we're too proud to admit we paid overs for him. Credit to him he still manages to step up despite his arms hanging from their sockets, but the club is tighter than a nun's and we go the whole season knowing we're dead in the water after round 10, so out come the knives and suddenly we're 3 managers for the season and trying to command a squad that was built by an ex manager with no budget and a Spanish business man who knows how to count profits from selling and nothing about getting along with managers and getting in the players we need.

All of this combined, what will happen to Ange at Leeds? He'll have us singing in the championship, we'll get promoted, he'll have a dreamy first year, the money either goes in Radrizzani's pockets or the 49ers if they haven't already run, then he'll be done by round 15 the following year while we're running around trying to scrape bargain bins in Holland.

Love Ange, Love Leeds, don't go. We need to work on ourselves.



This is some next level self critiquing honesty... Hope your journey in the champs is a short one this time round bud :)

Last time I checked his sportsbet odds were $1.53. I can't find his odds right now which suggests they have suspended betting. Some British newspapers are going with the story that its happening. Would be huge.

If Ange is offered the Spurs job, he has to take it. The trend in the EPL is the younger the manager, the better (for whatever reason....). 

It's an extremely ageist league (fans prefer 30-somethings in sweaters), and given Ange is on the other side of 55 his opportunity for getting a gig down south is closing.

I would hardly call it career suicide either, as he is at the back end of his career and Spurs will likely be the best pay-day he's ever going to get. 

As far as challenges go, re-building Spurs doesn't get any bigger. Will he get the time? Probably not. Will he get the pay-day that will look after his family for long once he retires? You bet!

Like I said previously, there is an obsession in England with young coaches in cashmere v-necks. 

It's a Bourgeois thing. 

Could you imagine a Sir Alex trying to get a job in the EPL now from Aberdeen or Wenger from Nagoya?

LOL.....this will be good, like I said here or another thread, all comes down to the interview, I'm sure Levy has other/s in wings for talks but AP, tread the waters, see what the $$$'s are, feel Levy out and I'm sure his "gut" will tell him yay or nay.

If im Ange I would not touch the job, its a poisoned chalice job when top managers leave on bad terms see Mourinho, Conte and even Poch who I think wanted to stay...another year with Celtic whilst playing champions league again would be more beneficial for him in my opinion.

If I'm 57, I'm not fucking around pondering how high I can go, I'm taking the opportunities. If it doesn't work out, he's not falling farther than Celtic that's for sure.

I also wouldn't make life determning decisions based on Mourinho's ego.

Gladbach just fired their coach. That would be a very interesting role for him.

Ange went from Japan to Scotland but from Scotland to Germany seems like something very far off at this point. He's certainly going to be in the UK. I say this as Ange is still seemingly unknown in the German football media. You'd think by now there'd at least be some whispers suggesting his capabilities to revive clubs like Schalke and Hamburg.

I've just caught up with how hot the Spurs link is now. Surely he can have a go. It's hardly career suicide. It's got to be long term and with absolute clarity. I'm not entire in the know but see comments of how absolutely shit the club is upstairs.

He's one who'll want success everywhere he goes but if Spurs still can't allow Ange to shake their curse he's got a lot of points in reserve to get a job at numerous other clubs.

Celtic fans reckon he's gone because of the similarity between his comments this week and what he said just before leaving YFM.

I think they're looking too much into what is otherwise just general FM platitudes and putting the focus on the next game.

But you gotta love it how passionate that they are to even be analysing it on this level.

If Ange goes to Spurs, I wonder if HK will follow him or stay at Celtic. Even better, imagine if Ange recommended to the board that HK be his replacement. Ahahahaha. From beyond left field. 

I'm not sure Harry is interested in pursuing that role at any club anymore. Harry's found his niche, should stick with it imo.

This. 

And also let’s face it, ange is always ready to take the next offer. 

This is an opportunity anyone would take in his position.

I watched a couple of Anges interviews post treble win and, despite not coming straight out with it, it really does seem like hes about to move on.... 

Still not sure its a smart move for him but holy Moses how could anyone say no to EPL football?  From Middle Park to White Heart Lane????  Go Angie.

With the new WHL construction, Tottenham has gone through the transition phase of becoming a global powerhouse club. The first feww years of that you'd expect in hindsight to have been issues with the squad adjusting to a new home and the budget limitations (especially with COVID coming at the exact wrong time). Honestly, what a time for him to get the job after that's worked its way through the system. He's going to have the budget to get the players he needs to play the way he wants to play. It's just going to be fkn huge.

Media here is absolutely convinced he gets the job offer this afternoon. Of course he's taking it. He worked his life for this. 

My boys Leeds went down but fuck have I got something to watch next season!!!!!
