Is it most likely Slot or is there a twist per Hercules itk from the other day?
I guess you don’t know for sure until it’s done but at this point it looks very very likely to be Slot going by most media reports. Supposedly tomorrow there are meetings scheduled between Slot’s agent and the board so I’d hope we hear something in the few days ether way.

New article on Slot. They say he can be domineering and a fiery personality contrary to what we’ve been under the impression of and can flirt with other clubs on the regular. Worth a read. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/f...ttacking-entertaining-football-Tottenham.html
I just read this and he seems like almost a Mourinho type but with attacking football.

He's managed to charm our board after all the success so he clearly has something about him.

Interesting times ahead.

Erm, yes please:
The Dutchman is a cutting-edge operator who understands the psychology of the modern-day footballer. He can be a shoulder to cry on, but is equally happy to dish out kicks up the backside if required. He will quickly create a siege mentality and place a huge emphasis on team bonding.

I think it will be a sticking point for me.....him meeting secretly with Feyenoord whilst employed by AZ Alkmaar....shows he pays no regard to his contract.

I get he would have to have had a degree of success with us or have us competing at the top end of the league for other bigger clubs to want him....... but I would like our next manager here long term and committed to the club and not dropping his knickers at the slightest opportunityof a another club flirting with him or his agent.

He wanted Leeds in January!

The guy is clearly really ambitious so if he screw's us over for someone higher up the food chain I hope it means he has left us with a trophy or two

It's the same terribly unambitious argument people on here put forward with regard to players. Don't buy player x because if he does well he'll be on the first flight to join real madrid.

If Slot joins and does well enough to peak the interest of the mega clubs, it means we as a club have done well.

Be brave

You've missed the point completely..... I want a manager who is committed to us and not dropping us at a moments notice.

Nothing about ambition..... we want a top manager to make us successful not to make up the numbers i don't think there's a single fan who is happy with us to just be mediocre as a team.
