Spurs Thread - 2022/23 Review.

[mothbanquet]

For me it's between one of these two:

Citeh need a No.9, they've won the PL without a proper centre-forward.

Chelsea because of their locality plus they are looking for a quality No.9.

Can't see anyone but City winning the bidding war, it's all going to come down to who has the deepest pockets I reckon.

Kane will be near guaranteed trophies of some description with City mind.

[billysboots]

He wants champions league footie and he doesn’t fancy Spurs to finish in the top 4 next season.

[whiteswan]

I'm slightly concerned. If Harry Kane were to leave Spurs, would they go after Paddy?

Its possible Swannie isnt it?

Spurs wont be a draw to top level strikers, Paddy would be a leading candidate a level down i suppose.

His agent is The Stellar Group who represent Bale, they will know Paddy is in a very strong negotiating position.

If Spurs dangle £100,000+ in front of Paddy we have to be very careful about trying to compete on wages like that.

If he is tempted and Spurs offered £40mil+ for him would it be time to cash out like Leicester do on players from time to time?

Also cant be forgotten Paddy has had a wonderful season infront of no fans, will that continue when fans are back?

Radz has spoken about the Leicester model.

This may be Bamford's peak value.

Hmmm I wouldn't say no personally. A better finisher would get 30 goals in this team.

Aguero on a free and Cunha as his replacement.

Tottenham manager news: The four leading candidates have been revealed

While more options could emerge, the major names leading the race are believed to be:
Erik Ten Hag.
Roberto Martinez.
Ralf Rangnick.
Graham Potter.

Ten Hag just signed an extension of his contract at Ajax a month ago or so. I doubt he will go there.

Martinez has a world cup with Belgium coming up in 2022 with a very good Belgium side with a lot players at the near end of their prime. De Bruyne for instance is still world class but the world cup in 2022 could be his last tournament in his prime. I don’t think Martinez will leave them for an uncertain job in London.

The other two doesn’t sound very ambitieus. Spurs will have a hard time the next couple of years I think. They had their moment with Pochetino, hard to see them do so well again in the near future.

Well it looks pretty nailed on Kane will go , though somehow I can't see City paying that sort of fee , even though they can , look at it and they don't pay those sort of fee's .They walked away from McGuire as the fee went up. Spurs however probably need to sell as he is probably at peak value now , and rather injury prone nowadays . Spurs and Paddy ? Don't know , they maybe might go for Ings or abroad first . I think it's why Paddy won't be at Euros too , used to a Bielsa system that suits him now , England might have to adapt to get best from him..........and I don't think that's in Southall's skill set as a manager .

[Mountain]

A couple of years ago it was all about the new stadium, having the best young manager around, reaching CL finals, plotting the Super League, runner up in the league and the best chairman.

Now they're managerless, aimless, fighting to reach the Europa Conference, a stadium costed at 300 million ending up costing 1.2 billion, their star player eyeing the exit door, and a chairman trying to hide his male pattern baldness...

Paris St-Germain boss Mauricio Pochettino is seriously considering a return to former club Spurs, however, Spurs are in talks with Belgium head coach Roberto Martinez

Levy should never have given Poch the boot in the first place, big mistake!

If Martinez gets the job will he want Pascal? We know he wants him to exercise his Belgian heritage for the national side.

[Cjay]

Looks like Poch may go back to Spurs.

Suppose his stock is very low given he failed at PSG, didnt win the league which is practically impossible with PSG and failed to win the Champions League.

Have to be mad to join Spurs atm

Guessing Lille winning it is a bit like Crystal Palace winning it here .PSG so far ahead of the rest in terms of players and cash , yet Poch once again showing he can't win anything. Didn't he once say at Spurs that winning trophies doesn't matter ? The people above him obviously think otherwise .......maybe not Levy though .

Don't even go there....Pascal is going to become one of the best defenders in the Premier League. We need to keep him

Yeah i think not winning the title with PSG is like not winning the title with Rangers or Celtic, almost impossible.

Had a read lf the Spurs forum earlier it is interesting to see some of the things they say about Poch.

Plays his favourites.
Overly stubborn.
Predictive substitutions
Refuses to loan out youngsters to allow them to develop.

These are all things MB has been accused of.

He really is BielsaLite

[Norm]

For interest, in the 1960/61 season, Spurs were the 3rd team to do the League/FA Cup double (first in the 20th century). Away record was something like W16 D1 L4
Set points record at 66 (2 points per win then).

I don't think they will be at quite those lofty heights next season.

Spurs in negotiations with Fabio Paratici who was a Director at Juve.

They are also talking to Conte.

Be a really good double swoop.
