I think he played at Sporting Lisbon.
Has Moutinho played outside of Portugal? How many coaches has he worked under full stop!?
They removed the Puma logo from Parker's shirt on the welcome banner
My point is... He thinks AVB is a top coach! But I don't think he's experienced many other coaches in his pro career.No, he played for Sporting before Porto (very controversial transfer). Don't know how many coaches he had in that time.
Well the Telegraph seem to think all will be revealed on Tuesday...

Fuck's sake, don't give them ideas.As has been pointed out in the Joao thread; he never played under Jose.
Actually makes me worry as to the authenticity of the article as a whole. If that part is bs then what about the 'jump at the chance to play for AVB again' bit.
But then I think if The Sun were to fabricate an AVB interview it would be to implicate him in the Lockerbie Bombing or something.

Well, how many top coaches have any of us even met? He's a professional player, and not an untalented one at that, who has direct experience of working under the guy. If he thinks, after all his yrs of working his nuts off through youth, reserve and first team football under various coaches and managers and likes the cut of AVB's jib, I'm willing to listen to his opinion. Not as gospel of course but it's at least as valid as anyone's. More valid than most, in fact.My point is... He thinks AVB is a top coach!

Like who???? How many years has he been playing for Portugal? If he had played under Mourinho, Capello, Pep, Ancelloti etc etc some real big names in the coaching world and then said AVB is a top coach, i would take his opinion more into consideration! But having only played in Portugal of course he thinks AVB is a top coach.plenty of Portugal coaches at major tournaments.
Adebayor has played under Wenger, Mourinho, Mancini, HR, if he said AVB is a top coach then you would have to believe it. Yes experienced the best! Moutinho hasn't experienced any big name managers for him to compare AVB.Well, how many top coaches have any of us even met?

Well, Tuesday actually makes a lot more sense to be honest. Announcing things on Sunday and it will be overshadowed by the Final. Monday will most likely be a fair amount of discussion on the Final, on how either Spain is the greatest team of all time, or on how Italy managed to beat them and the parallels of the last time there was a match fixing scandal in 2006 and the Italians banded together to win it all and now they've done it again. So the newspapers on Monday will be fairly full.
On Tuesday though, we can dominate the news, and honestly, spacing out some signings over Tue, Wed, and Thur means that Spurs can pretty much dominate the football news world for the rest of a week. Announcing Sunday or Monday means we end up overshadowed by, or at least competing against, the Euro Final.
Agree!I think the point is that if he did say that and HE thinks AVB is a top coach, then we have a great chance of signing him. Whether AVB IS a top coach, that is another matter. I personally think he is, but then what do I know.

I think the key point is that I'm not working on Tuesday and therefore have the opportunity to find out Spurs-related news slightly earlier than I would normally. Obviously Levy has factored this in.
