What tier is Sami mokbel? Afaik know he is very reliable one of the big ones so was tempted to put tier 1 but didnt want to be mistaken
I know with transfers by the time BBC reports stuff in this manner it’s nearly there
Fuck
This basically means it’s happening, almost 100%. Sami Mokbel is Tier 1 for everyone.
Surely if you had literally any brain power and were running a club in this situation the bare minimum you would want from a new manager would be a unifying figure?
Not a man renowned for his short temper, poor relationships with higher levels of clubs and a rapist apologist who the vast majority of fans want nowhere near the club?
Cannot fathom how stupid this is.
Manager choices ranked from being very serious about not getting relegated to being less serious about getting relegated:
– God Manager: 100% chance of survival. 100% fan support for a long contract and exorbitant wages.
– Pochettino: 50% chance of survival, 80% fan support for a medium contract and high wages.
– Keane: 40% chance of survival, 60% fan support for medium contract on medium wages.
– Dyche: 25% chance of survival, 40% fan support for short contract, medium wages.
– Davies: 20% chance of survival, 30% fan support for an interim contract on low wages.
Manager choice which makes no sense except to an utter idiot with horseshit filled inside the skull:
– De Zerbi: 10% chance of survival, 10% fan support for a long contract and exorbitant wages.
I don’t see this ending well.
Fucking hell
Translation: he’s naming whatever price he wants and they’re bending over spreading their arse cheeks for one final gamble to avoid relegation.
What happens if we go down? Assume he has a release clause or will simply resign
Rdz is the best manager spurs could in their current predicament. His defense of his own player is the only black mark, but from a footballing perspective, this is a much better appointment than other alternatives.
Wow so much confidence of not getting relegated
I still have not seen anyone discuss De Zerbi’s merits as a coach. I get it, we all get it. He is apparently an asshole and morally incongruent with the team’s fans. But is he actually a good coach? His results seem mid, and his commitment to any one team, very lacking.
So let’s assume this happens. Does he get boo’d constantly? If so does he still try to keep us up. If he keeps us up do we support him? If he doesn’t he’s out with a fat paycheck so are we contributing to that?
What is the positive here
This might be the final straw for me
Can someone help me out. I keeping finding the comment that Di Zerbi made that was along the lines of “in the locker room I will reprimand my players but in public I will treat them like a son”. Are there other comments I am not aware of??
Why fuck around till now to do it. Why didnt you push for him before getting tudor in? Just throwing shit around seeing what sticks. Doubt this is going to be a very long term appointment
From Ange to this… i might be out just morally now
Please tell me he is not adept of a back 3
So, this might be a stupid question, but will he stay if we’re relegated? If you look at it in a positive light, he’s got a season to build his squad and play style, before returning and winning the Prem.
Good manager. Knows the league. Will keep the club up.
Fade the opinion of idiots that thought Tudor was the answer, admiring the “fighting spirit” of a manager who conceded 6 goals in his first 120 minutes, and 20 goals over 7 games.
I swear no one is talking about the Mason Greenwood stuff outside of reddit.
I hate my club and it hates me
Genuine question: what if de Zerbi were to repent and offer a substantial (not just PR-speak) apology re: his Greenwood comments
He will surely be asked about it by journalists, so its not far-fetched.
If he did so, would that change your opinion?
