AVB was probably as good as we could get at the time. Not the most entertaining football, but he got us some great points tally. Having Bale, King, etc isn't his fault is it? It's like saying Guardiola is not a good manager because he had Messi, Xavi, Iniesta etc....
AVB had a plan and a style. If you don't like it - Don't hire him.
I liked him, espescially because he was a likeable guy who acted respectfully. I believe Spurs is a nice club (off pitch), with high moral and ethics to the contrary of Mourinho and many others. Didn't like the entertainment at the end, but think he should be treated with respect for what he achieved here.
It was a time when we had quite good players, but a chaotic board and management. It's been like that since before and after AVB - and is probably only doing better now with Poch...
