Bit OTT all things considered. You’ve dived in 2-footed on a poster that’s challenged the credibility of your post.

Expect to be challenged on an internet forum. Drop the insults out - no need.
It's got to be said that the lad's had a bit of a mare these last few pages. 🤣

To be fair, i also heard that on the spurs show and the guy who mentions it has contacts at Chelsea. So it was worth mentioning without a pile on

Was listening to the spurs show podcast last night. Some dude on there mentioned that Nags Chelsea interview was a car crash. He was super arrogant, hadn’t done any research on the team (in fairness that’s a lot of research😀). Was up himself basically.
Sounds more like Boehly tbh! 🤣

I don't think there would have been a "pile on", not that there really was, if it wasn't for the OP's overly childish and aggressive responses to the source being questioned.

People need to calm down. There’s essentially no rush now as the season is essentially over and no manager is gonna take over till the summer.

Having a a proper shortlisting process, interviews, and choosing someone is the right way to do it.
Getting a DoF would be a good first step...

Let me put it this way - I don't think there's a coherent plan in place. I don't think the people making these decisions are capable of putting a coherent plan together.

I obviously hope they luck out again and land a BMJ/Arry or even better a Poch type outcome but it'll be more by luck than judgment.

The sheer number of possibilities makes me nervous.

Blind reported that there's only a fee if he takes a job this season, I found the below quote:

"The Bild report goes on to claim that, because Nagelsmann has been sacked before the end of his second season, automatic severance clauses cannot apply, hence getting rid of him may prove an expensive process for Bayern."

So if they wait until the summer to "officially" sack him they don't pay the expensive buy out, and won't seek a large fee?
Gonna be a long wait till July 1 if true.

At least Nagelsmann to Amorim signals a bit of joined up thinking. Both play back 3/5 formation which I think we need to stick with in the medium term with Spence, Porro & Udogie to build around, and Perisic possibly still here.
Sadly, that is the sensible option I'm afraid. I don't like the back 3/5, never have but you are quite right.

I hope we don’t pick a manager at an absolutely crucial moment in our history just because he plays a formation that suits a couple of recent signings that have not even established themselves as key players for us yet.

Alonso also plays a back 3. As you say, it actually makes sense from a tactical perspective.

Hope I'm wrong but I think it would be a minor miracle if we got a DoF anytime soon. Certainly don't think we'll get one before we bring in a new manager.

Think our main hope atm is that Munn knows what he's doing and is a positive influence on the manager recruitment process as he seems quite heavily involved if he's jetting around with Levy.
