That really isn't good. What on earth is he trying to achieve?

You would think he would be mindful of the fact that any potential future employees would not only be scrutinising his results but his conduct and the way he carries himself.

Ah well, his problem really if it was as bad as it reads.

Hi Mr Pink,

Fixed your post

Thanks

Tim

Would need to find where the original tweets come from, but there are a few journalists that tweet during it

While im not twitters biggest fan, for news on our press Confederates it beats everything

From here it seems.

Tim's Lamela update: Went to see Roma physios and others. Training on his own currently. Won't feature this season World Cup possible.



http://talkingthfc.wordpress.com/2014/04/11/my-day-at-hotspur-way/

"The press conference itself was split up into certain sections. First came the broadcast material, which involved filming. When that segment came to a close, all cameras were forcefully switched off, leading to a great dash to the front with recorders for reporters to throw stuff at Sherwood. Several different themes were thrown to him, particularly Erik Lamela. Sherwood was asked about Lamela learning the language, he replied with: “Que?”. The entire contingent of reporters then exploded with laughter. Sherwood was often cracking jokes throughout his presser and many responded to that. After asking some people there, it is clear that the press is much warmer to Sherwood that AVB, many saying they were almost frustrated by AVB at times. Something I found funny was that a reporter asked Sherwood, as a joke, where Lamela was buried. He laughed it off rather mentally and the PR assistant swiftly moved the subject on. I get the impression Tim isn’t a big Erik fan.

I had a truly fantastic day and got to witness first-hand the ins and outs of a press conference and the surrounding write up by various reporters. What I will say about today, is that it changed my opinion about Sherwood. He clearly adores Tottenham Hotspur and that’s important to me as a fan. He hasn’t done too bad a job, just people are blinded by the bad points. I’m not saying I want him to stay, but I’m proud to say he served the club with it in his heart. Thanks for reading!!"

I'm not in a Sherwood ' fan club ' by any reckoning, but choosing to stick the boot into a Spurs Manager at every given real or imagined opportunity isn't really my thing either.

Because people don't call our manager a **** or wanker doesn't make them a sherwood fan club.
There are many people i don't call names.

Sherwood and Eric should both concentrate on Spurs. If Eric gets to go to the world cup then great, but I want him doing well for Spurs.

I honestly didn't realise Sherwood had amassed this many supporters in the Lamela thread. Did you all migrate from 'Sherwood out'?

Roma physios ...training on his own...brother retweeting negative stories.

Reckon he's off.

Sandro went back to Brazil when injured. Wouldn't read too much into it.

Doubt he's happy and he shouldn't be. This is a nightmare season for him. But Levy won't give up on him.

I'd like to think so, but I would've hoped Levy would've ensured the club is seen to be doing all it can to support its biggest ever signing.

The way we've handled such a massive investment has been nothing short of a disgrace.

Think any decent manager has to be at the least 'seen' to be supportive of his players and give the impression that he can help them to achieve their goals. Surely that's just common sense?

http://www.theguardian.com/football/2014/apr/11/tim-sherwood-tottenham-transfer-dealings

"He had some treatment from the Roma physios and our guys – I think he's been pretty much everywhere," Sherwood said. "It's a similar injury to the back problem that Chiriches had and we're pleased to have Chiriches fit so our guys have done a good job with him. Lamela's probably not going to play [again] this season. He's been out a very long time. He's going to need a pre-season before he can play.

"He's basically been out of the picture because of his injury and hopefully he's using this time to learn English. That will stand him in good stead for when he's eventually fit."

Sherwood was asked how Lamela's English was coming on.

"Qué?" he replied."

Found a bit more in the Guardian.
