Never ever going to happen. Far too risky a move and completely the wrong type of appointment required at this moment in time. Levy is guaranteed to go safe with an experienced coach to steady the ship, get last summer's imports playing well, and get the fans back on side.

Well, those 3 things aren't the reasons I'd really want him but yes, would be a fantastic appointment.

Let's get #TuchelToTottenham trending on Twitter. Serious.

An ideal (and I do mean ideal) scenario would be LVG (coming over with either Davids or Kluivert, as a protege under his wing)... instilling confidence in our players, integrating his winning philosophy, laying a strong foundation, and developing our young talent. Then either Davids or Kluivert takes over as Manager after 3-4 years or so.
Secondary option would be Spalletti coming on (for continuity purposes, among other reasons). He is good at massaging egos, working with youngsters, and establishing innovative strategy along with an effective training approach. That way we can also keep Baldini going with the "continental" model, etc.
If the above two fall through, I'd go with Pochettino.
Don't get me wrong, I'd absolutely love to have Tuchel or Favre take over the club's managerial duties (preferably keeping Steffen Freund on the Assistant Staff, with hopes of him eventually driving the bus).
However, I'm afraid Levy and Co. wouldn't be interested in either of these candidates. In case of Tuchel (or Favre for that matter), I am not sure if Levy even knows who he is (although Baldini probably does...at least I hope so, for our sakes).
So, to sum it up in 3 brief lines:
1) LVG + Davids
2) Spalletti
3) Pochettino
-->> then 4....5....6.....(Tuchel, Favre, FDB, followed by all my other choices)
What are the chances any of the aforementioned names come even remotely close though? That remains to be seen.
COYFS!

The buzz came from us just "shooting the breeze" so to speak.
The likes of @Klinsmann33 // @Lufti // @wiggo24 // @Riandor // @whitelanefever // @spurs9 // and myself started throwing around bits and pieces about Tuchel in the last few days, and it began to spread like wildfire.
I made a comment that Tuchel is likely to take over at Borussia Dortmund if Klopp leaves for Manure, and it went viral. It's madness, I tell ya!
Also a couple of months ago, the kids over @ CFC suggested that someone should take a closer look at Tuchel as a potential candidate for us, as follows: http://cartilagefreecaptain.sbnatio...enham-hotspur-manager-shortlist-thomas-tuchel
Cheers!

And put bets on him to bring the odds down and make him favorite. Might get Levy's attention.

What the players need now is someone who the players respect. Respect has to be earned. He has shown through his relatively short career that his players will do anything for him. He bonds teams in a way not many managers can do. I think he would be the PERFECT appointment for Levy to make.
Problem is i dont believe Levy has the stones to do it!

According to Greg Stobart, Levy and co are aware of Tuchel but considered him too high risk, when LVG was a possibility. If LVG does go to Man Utd (or if Levy gets pissed off at being messes around) the apperently it will be back to the drawing board, so Tuchel could well be up for consideration.
Personally, LVG is my 1st choice and Tuchel second.

The pressure element is a good point and something we won't know how he will handle until he is in that situation. I think the same could be said about most of the managers we are being linked with and even LVG has cracked under the pressure at Barcelona.
The quality of the Bundesliga isn't a good point when you go on to say we would be better off with a Klopp sytle appointment, as Klopp manages in a league if only one team better than you and the difference in quality between you and say 6th place is huge. Tuchel however manages a team that arguably on paper have 17 teams that are better than them and have a higher budger etc, but despite this he has them 7th (7 points from 4th). The quality might thin quickly but his squad (player for player) is at the very thin end, but beating teams at the thick end.
Have a look at the link below to see his squad and compare that to say SV Hamburger or Hoffenheim.

And we off..........started at 50/1, now 33/1.
He definitely deserves to have the opportunity to speak to Levy. Before AVB was interviewed, I don't think he was considered a front runner but he apparently wowed them and the rest is history. I think the same would happen to Tuchel, very knowledgable and likeable. He just needs that chance before someone else gets him

Here you go. It was on Twitter.
In a convo about Tuchel and in response to someone commenting that we are unlikely to know who he is as "we don't scout players properly so we aren't going to scout managers properly either":
Follow
Greg Stobart@gstobart@realchazlacey @bankruptspurs @WindyCOYS @bbqbobs They know him but will be seen as too high risk
And his tweet about back to the drawing board:
Greg Stobart@gstobart
@e_spurs @crackersTHFC @StevenLDN Pochettino would get an interview and be favourite. But back to square one really - all much of muchness

He is also starting to get popular with Spurs Journalists/bloggers too. Greg Stobart has suggested he may be his favorite option, Chris Miller (aka Windy) has also said Tuchel is the most interesting option.
Him as an option is definitely picking up momentum and it is only a matter of time before the red tops pick it up and start having "source's close to" someone suggesting he is an option.

Its amazing that Poch would be seen as the fav. This in my mind is as much a risk as Tuchel would be.Here you go. It was on Twitter.
