There is one thing certain that is going to occur between now and whenever Daniel Levy names a permanent replacement for the sacked Jose Mourinho and that is a mass of speculation.
Front runners will come and go as has already been the case with Julian Nagelsmann.
The Leipzig boss was leading the pack until yesterday when it was announced that he is set to become the new Bayern Munich and just like that, he is out of the picture.
There are other names in the mix, the usual suspects as some will call them, Brendan Rodgers, Maurizio Sarri and Max Allegri and the chances are they will be in the gossip pages the next time Levy wants a new manager and the time after that.
Then we have the young English managers like Scott Parker and Eddie Howe, managers that are not brand names and probably not the type that Levy will be keen on giving an opportunity.
The new front runner, both in the gossip columns but also with the sportsbooks is Ajax manager Erik Ten Hag.
He is now leading the markets and his name is prominent on today’s BBC gossip page.
Ten Hag comes across as a young exciting manager that plays the sort of football that would suit Tottenham.
The chances are that Ten Hag will drop down the rankings before the day is out and replaced by someone else, largely based on a Daily Mail or Daily Star article, such is the state of the speculation at this moment in time.
But right now, it is Ten Hag and I reckon that most Spurs fans will be ok with that if it actually happens.
