Mabbsy Tells Timmsy Don’t Be A Whimsy

By The Boy -

As ever, Gary Mabbutt is the voice of calm and reason.

The last few days have been filled with comment about Time Sherwood’s post match interview on Saturday. Was it brave, was it insane, was it up there with Princess Diana’s interview with Martin Bashir?

Mabbutt was a great player, and as an ambassador for the club, he simply never puts a foot wrong.

If you’re in the realms of being a football manager, speculation about your role happens every single week. Whether your team is winning, losing, there’s always speculation.

It’s one of those professions where no matter what happens there’s always going to be questions asked. The only time you believe any of it, is when something definitely happens.

I’ve said before Tim’s doing a fantastic job. I think Tim’s learned very quickly. Going from the role he had to being the first team manager was a very different role and a big step up.

For any Spurs fans if we could be in Turin at the Europa League final and see Michael Dawson lift that trophy at the end of the season that would be fantastic.

People have spoken about different competitions and the value of competitions. It’s nonsense. Every player wants to win every trophy they’re involved with.

It’s normally everybody else who starts talking about devaluing competitions. Whatever players are playing in, they want to win.”

There appears to be a slow but steady avenue of thought emerging, that the Europa is the now the priority. The question is, will Tim take the hint? Will Levy & Co. encourage him to put all his eggs in that basket?

They should.

The league campaign is a mess. We’ve no goal difference (literally, we’re on zero) and our remaining games are; Arses at home, Saints at home, Liverpool away, Sunderland at home, West Brom away, Fulham at home, Stoke away, West Ham away.

Instead of imploding as was wildly asserted by some, Liverpool and Arsenal are both resilient. City have 3 games in hand. Does next season’s manager really want the marathon distraction of the Europa to deal with?

I wouldn’t.
