FORMER Manager Watch: Nuno Espírito Santo

[ComfortablyNumb]

Good players the previous 3 managers couldn't get any change out of.

Players that need a Coach, not a Manager.

 

[Spurzinho]

Good players the previous 3 managers couldn't get any change out of.

Out of context. Poch did indeed get a tune out of them but the group aged out and needed rebuilding. The chairman didn't fancy it so let Poch struggle on until he needed putting out of his misery. Next was Jose who is...Jose. He came in and everyone was dead impressed. Then they got to know him and it all fell in a hole. The painful rebuild was botched - Matt Doherty! Gedson! Vinicius! Then Mason came in and while not brilliant we started to look like a football team again and the players grew in confidence. Then we spent all summer looking the THE GUY. We got Nuno, who even Palace looked at and put back on the shelf. Nuno can't get a tune out of this lot but then Nuno can't get a tune out of a whole lot.

Unfortunately sacking him would do very little. We have a bunch of average players apart from a few and with him being Paraticis first appointment it leads to huge concerns over our footballing structure.
As a club we are broken and whether Nuno stays or not that's not going to change.

Levy will just sack Paratici when he sacks Nuno and move on. He gives zero fucks about consistency or what anyone else thinks.

And this is where Potter would be the right appointment.

These aren’t the same players that the other ‘3’ managers had.

Poch didn’t have Regullion
Jose and Poch didn’t have Romero
Poch or Jose didn’t have Emerson
Jose nor Poch had a matured improved Skipp
Poch didn’t have PEH
Ndombele was barely fit for Poch and not particularly for Jose

But anyway it’s very simple, the players and squad do need a bit of improving but at the same time the manager should be getting much better performances from these players and showing better patterns of attacking plan, a better clear tactical plan and better stats in terms of shots taken, chances made and expected goals.

 

[spursfan77]

Whoever is en vogue at the moment or in the summer is who we’ll go for. Levy doesn’t do planning.

I agree. I voted for Potter in every poll. No one listens to me…

 

[SpursTillIDie1882]

Every time he speaks you want to fall asleep, so boring & his lack of subs shows it.

..... most want to (tbf i feel like that every time i see him looking utterly gormless on the touchline, together with his patented foldy arms )

Palace walked away from Nuno because him and Mendes kept adding demands to the contract.

It wasn't because they didn't think he was good enough.

I don't think he was a good pick for us but let's not twist things

 

[M.I.B.]

Only Simeone can save us

Yeah mason who brought back Dele and winks into the team. Mason was the perfect example why this current crop of players can't play attacking football.

 

[sparx100]

they are mirroring the manager

Yup feels that way to me. He bores the shit out of me just listening to his interviews so I can't imagine he motivates the team in any shape or form.

 

[ohh_when_the_spurs]

I have lost so much love for spurs now, I used to be on here daily, I'd watch every game without fail, that is all gone now. I don't care about Kane leaving, I don't care about us losing.

How has it come to this? From CL final to looking like an absolute shit show every week.

When people used to take the piss out of spurs it genuinely made me mad. Now I feel nothing at all.

Levy get the fuck out of my club. You have ruined it all.

 

[BringBack_leGin]

Haven’t read any of the fl out.

Away to a good side, both sides on the whole cancelled eachother out, we controlled most of the match despite none of the front 4 being on song and we wasted the best opportunities before falling asleep on a set piece. That’s not on Nuno.

What is on Nuno is the fact that it was obvious from about the 60hth that at least one of the front 4 needing hooking if not a couple as we’d become predictable and sloppy, and he didn’t do it.

 

[panoma]

I understand the frustration, but at the end of the day, football is the most important of the unimportant things in my life. Even then, I think it has gone down the order in the last couple of years. Some people just take it too far. Its 22 people kicking a ball for 90 minutes, calm the fuck down.

You are completely right, and I think many wish they didn't care as much as they do when it comes to football.

I know I often wish I would just shrug it off, but sadly the effortless losses linger longer than they should.

Mate everyone seems to agree that 4231 is the best formation that suits this crop of players. Therefore who you play in the double pivot is instrumental to the style of play. Skipp and Hojbjerg in a double pivot would work best if we decide on a counter attacking style of play like West ham where soucek and rice break up the play in the centre. Do you think we should play a counter style of play with the Current crop of players.

But it's not your club. It's Lewis', Levy's and a handful of minority shareholders' club.

If you want a club you can truly call your club, you have to drop out of the PL. Top level football is no longer compatible with fans having a stake in it, it purely exists as an entertainment business now.

The sad thing is how we legacy fans (I hate that term but can't think of anything better) continue to be taken for a ride.

So many feel the same way. Am becoming so apathetic to it all. Every now and again I get that surge of joy or despair. But overall it’s just ambivolence as I know as
long as Levy is around it will not change.

 

[NEVILLEB]

Levy pointed the finger at Poch and most of the fans went along with it.

We deserve to be where we are.

the problem with that is football is the one thing they have going for them that gets them away from their life’s and worries for a few hours a week. For me it’s not important and I forget about most of it the next day, for others it ain’t as simple
