They spent €50m during his time to Rangers €20m. Celtic have outspent Rangers by €50m in 5 years and during Ange's time Celtics net spend has been 5m whilst rangers have made €25m. Thats a difference of €30m which for that league is practically a new team. Which he did do by getting in 24 players
I'll put it this way. There is a culture at Spurs. Mason is a big part of that culture. Lloris, PEH, Kane as part of the senior membership committee are also a big part of that culture.
Do you have information that we have interviewed him directly? Yes, we may have but without actual info we're just guessing.
But I could say the same that you don't know we haven't spoken to him. I'd be very surprised if we haven't even spoken to a manager we have serious interest in. We've been over 2 months without a manager so must have spoken to all the relevant options by now. If not then we should have. You can't wait 2 months without even getting to that stage. Even with the season running managers talk all the time. Ange can say he's 100% focused on the final but thats just what you tell the media. It's pretty easy to speak to another club and still be focused on your current job.
Not to be confused with their national anthem, 'Tie Me Kangaroo Down, Sport'
Seems unlikely to have spoken directly, but probably through intermediaries.
We’re signing Sam Kerr as a Kane replacementMatilda?
The domestic season comes to a close today. Perhaps the football yearly contract window ending at the end of June will have a bearing for compensation with whomever we go for (JN still affected here as he's on gardening leave and not sacked).
He should promote Yaya Toure too.
Same difference to be honest. The point is you speak about the important stuff with each potential candidate. Do that in good time and then put down a list of the preferences based on that info. If the first doesn't happen you go straight to the next option.
You're right, neither of us know which is why I said we.
I'm not complaining about that, I'm complaining that we haven't decided who our preference is yet. If we have decided on Ange that would be fine but to not know yet is crazy. 2 months and we don't have a list of priorities laid out.
'Permission'.. isn't as BREAKING as it sounds. Ange is on a 12 month rolling contract, which by all accounts has expired and the 'permission' harks back to something Ange said himself; that he doesn't want to know about anything other than Celtic right now, and his reps know better than to bring him nonsense before a cup final. It's not like Celtic have said, 'sure knock yourselves out'.
You mean the wording 'not been decided yet'? Do you think they mean not decided by Ange yet? I don't know what's going on but just finding it frustrating for us not to be decided on who we want. We should have a clear idea by now 1st, 2nd and 3rd choices. That's what a well run club would do. We just seem to have too many people each with their own preference. There's no unified way of thinking here and everyone on a different page, even on a different book.
I kind of do think we did know who were our initial preferences. JN was the most likely, but he wants assurances about a DoF... (which we're working on) and there's the high compensation Bayern want, so we've added him to the list of possibles.
