fair point Kendall - but who's the second most revered manager in Spurs history - probably Burkinshaw, he's certainly one of the most revered, - but his was a reputation based mainly on the cups he won, and the finals and semi finals he also reached
if we look at Redknapp now - for years whenever people have praised him I've always thought 'fine, but what's he won?' - howevver if he wins the Cup to me his reputation is transformed
and please also let's remember the lge position we were in when Jol left - it sure weren't top six-
ok blame the board if you like - but whoever was at fault it sure ain't JR for not getting top 6 this season
More cups and I might change my mind. But at the moment I stand by the notion that Juande winning 1 cup and Jol not, does not automatically mean he's done a better job, or indeed, has proven himself a massive step up.
I have no doubt that this is the beginning of many good things to come, but Juande still has much to prove. If he can get us to any kind of consistency that Jol did, then I will change my mind also.
