This is a fantastic post.I think that there is a lot of reasons why Mason makes sense.
As a club we need to settle and stabilise. Having someone who bleeds Spurs has huge advantages. He won’t walk. He won’t bring the club down. He will support the club in resolving the off field chaos. He genuinely loves the club. Our instability goes right through the club. Having one of our own reinstalling our beliefs and values on and off the pitch as well as in the stands
Every single word he has said in every interview has been absolutely fantastic in my opinion and is indicative of an extremely intelligent person. As well as being a very highly rated coach.
I really am not worried about his lack of experience. I’ve posted about my views on experience before. We’ve had some of the most experienced Managers in global football over the last few years and it hasn’t worked because that isn’t the root cause of our issues
My issue over the last few seasons has been not feeling connected and falling out of love with Spurs. Not the lack of trophies. I want someone who can make me care again. I think that could be Mason.
A lot there to really resonate with going with Mason.
I'd still go with Nagelsmann or Slot and hope Mason takes on a job with a Championship/League 1 team to really develop and implement/test his ideas so he can really implement his football identity.
And when he does that and if Naglesmann moves on, the club and him are ready.
I do agree that there is a case and you never really know.
I'm very impressed with him and people like that often bring everyone together
