Ryan Mason is probably one of the nicest guys one might meet, but is he fit to manage Tottenham? One fan commenting on talkSPORT’s You Tube channel remarked, ‘Give it to Mason and Spurs will end up in the Championship’, which is a sentiment I have to agree with.
Beyond all the rather banal corporate chat from the former player in pressers, it was difficult to get a sense of anything tactically brought to the table by the Englishman. Daniel Levy will need better plan than to look in-house again.
Tactics Timmy, he used to play
Sits in the stands with his magic gilet
He won a few with Adebayor
Got the waster to run and score
Football’s a simple game, innit?
Run about a bit and win it.
Last I saw Sherwood, he was on the Kelly & Wrighty show, attempting punditry, embarrassing himself.
What about Timmy Sherwood? Had one hell of a win percentage with us! 🤔 😂
I’m pleased that the Seville president has confirmed that Levy’s offer for their manager and his subsequent rejection of it is true. World class stadium and world class training ground yet no decent manager wants to touch the job with a barge pole.
Levy has run the club into the ground in order to build his retail space wet dream. I have no words right now, just disbelief really…
You talk about him. Start your own rumor. Apparently these notehead to not need to have verified facts to print stories.
We will always produce great English players… Its the managers that are the problem surely.. Southgate, Allardyce, Hodgson, Mclaren, Capello, Sven goran Erikson… Whoever picks these clowns needs to up their game.
I’m getting a feeling I’ve had numerous times in my (reasonably) short but colourful life, but that I’ve never had in terms of support for this club.
That sudden churning, sick feeling, like when you’re on the cross-channel ferry in a force 10 gale, like being called to the boss’s boss’s office at work, like when I was looking for bathroom silicone for a nanosecond and my 18 month old daughter vanished in B&Q, like that look from the missus (you know the one) and the silence that follows after you’ve had a night out on the razz and can’t remember past 10pm.
Like during all of those scenarios, I’m struggling to envisage how this is going to end remotely well.
Mason set up well to beat Rodgers and stopping their CL hopes. 4 goals soon shut up those Leicester fans. We need a proper manager though its too much too soon for Ryan… Simon Jordon talking to pro boxers like a snotty kid on talksport I find hilarious.. What a fall from grace, 75million mobile phone fortune, to losing it all taking Palace into administration, to a daily talksport host.. Imagine Levy doing that..
Why on earth is nobody talking about Christoph Galtier? We should be going all out for him.. Marco Biesla left Lille in relegation trouble. Galtier saved them from the drop. Then to fourth, then to second. Then champions beating Botches PSG.
Well, nothing dodgy in the Spain match then. Player goes to clear the ball, wasn’t even looking at Koke who puts his foot in so he kicks it, if anything it’s Slovakia free kick….ref gives a pen via VAR….then player passes straight to attacker then the keeper palms it in his own net.
Absolute circus of corruption.
I’ve got a strange feeling the Spanish may get dumped out today. It’s a long shot but there hasn’t been a big casualty yet and Spain have been pedestrian.
Just when you thought it could not get much more cringeworthy yet another manager (Seville) declines the opportunity to take the reins at Hotspur Way. With not much more than a couple of weeks to go till pre-season training it seems likely that the “trying to find a manager” saga must soon be wound up before the next episode of embarrassment visits us-namely training with no permanent coach. Perhaps it will be Mason and King taking on this role again at least in the short term. This level of embarrassment deserves some unpicking because we are still talking about an elite football club-right? A club whose CEO thought it deserved to be in the ESL-right? So who decides who to get rid of and who to bring in to the current squad? If it is the DOF then what kind of manager is going to accept this state of affairs? The decent ones are not queueing up are they. I think that the longer this search goes on the more likely supporters will be disappointed with the outcome. The deliberate time wasting by Levy will surely backfire this time around.
I fear the truth is, it may as well be Mason. Hiding to nothing.
Spot on eddie
As nice a bloke he is, I’m not sure Mason has it in him to dish out the hairdryer treatment when needed. There was also a hint of favouritism in his selections with old buddies finding themselves higher up the pecking order for no apparent reason related to performance. I’m not sure he’d find it easy to drop a mate if he should.
Levy doesn’t want any trophies to be won,because it increases expectation of investment being put into the team.For that very reason Mourinho was sacked because it would have meant paying him a bonus for his success.
Whilst i have suggested that Mason could be in charge come the start of the season,it would be an admission of defeat by Levy [although he won’t see it that way] and a complete humiliation for the club.However he doesn’t care because it will save him money and he is impervious to critcism.
Mason simply not an option – after the chaos of the search so far, handing it to this noob would be a ridiculously humiliating admission of defeat for Levy, and he doesn’t strike me as the sort to sit well with ridiculous humiliation.
Would be a disaster if Mason continued as manager. Perhaps a few years down the line he might be fit to manage a championship club but not a top club like Spurs yet. Levy could already have cost us a trophy by sacking Mourinho just before the cup final (so much for him being an alleged Spurs fan), surely he wouldn’t be stupid enough to sentence us to a relegation battle too?
I’ve actually lost all interest in the manager’s job saga……never thought after 49 years of supporting Spurs this would happen. Thanks Levy for making a mockery of our great club.
The biggest risk to English football is the reluctance of coaches like Southgate and Mason to take risks and realise they are in the entertainment business.
I’ve said it since after the final mason n king will get a joint manger on a 1 year rolling contract cheapest option levy has n it’s more or less what he wants a proper yea man
