Thomas Tuchel admitted that he used to love Tottenham when he was a child after pretending to be the club as he played with his friends. The German is reportedly under consideration to become the next Spurs’ manager with Antonio Conte increasingly likely to leave at the end of the season when his contract expires.

The Spurs board are becoming reluctant to activate their option for a 12-month extension given the team’s recent on-field struggles according to the Daily Mail. The Lilywhites have won just three of their last nine games in the Premier League in an alarming slump of form which has seen the club fall out of the Champions League places.

Conte is my favorite coach but Tuchel is better IMO. He changed Lampard's Chelsea in a day and dominated CL. But I also watched his Chelsea against Dinamo Zagreb at the stadium and they were more dull to watch than Dinamo that parked the bus. He would try to sign more technical players at least, but football wouldn't be a great watch. Even at peak Tuchel it would be worse than Conte last year when it comes to entertaining football, but he won't get destroyed by Arteta every time, he knows how to deal with Pep's tactics. I wouldn't mind him coaching us some day because I like tactical genius weirdos, but I can see why some wouldn't want him.

Awful clickbait. He absolutely does not give his view on managing Spurs at all.

He just says he liked Spurs as a child. That's it.

Did the reason why he was sacked by Chelsea ever come out?

It was reported they fell out over transfer activity, with the new owners feeling Tuchel wasn't as helpful, positive and aligned as he could have been about their summer activity.

Plus new owners usually want someone new.

Simon Jordon said that the Chairman told him that there was more to it, and he would have sacked him immediately too.

Not enough away from what Mourinho, Nuno and Conte stand for tactically.

Yes because appointing ex-Chelsea managers always works so well for us lol.
