As nice a guy as Ryan Mason evidently is, the odds of him being appointed the head coach of Tottenham. Winning the Carabao Cup wouldn’t harm his chances, but it is unlikely that Daniel Levy would want a decision that had to be made in haste to become a permanent deal.
Corriere di Torino believes that shortlisted Sarri could be an appointment that that might prove influential in helping none other than Paulo Dybala make his mind up on his next club.
Who knows that the turning point may not coincide with the future of Maurizio Sarri who, after his contacts with Roma, also opened at Tottenham.
Sarri is thought to be linked with both Spurs and Roma, and that as a result that either side might benefit from his relationship with Paulo.
My issue with all this business is not just suffering from a heavy dose of ‘Dybala fatigue’, but trying to envisage Maurizio Sarri’s impact at Hotspur Way. If it is true that many of the current squad didn’t care for José Mourinho, it is difficult to believe that Sarri would be seen as the most easy-going, diplomatic character.
If I were running Tottenham right now, I’d swerve any opportunities of a lifetime for expensive stars and hard-faced coaches, and instead concentrate upon finding a unifying solution.
One of the fastest ways to diffuse the stone throwers outside the club is to ensure that internally, things are on an even keel.
