Next Tottenham manager, who? I'll have a guess!
Next Tottenham manager, who? I'll have a guess!
Odds on it could be Simone Inzaghi, as
he has been tipped to replace Jose Mourinho.
The press love it, speculation, article
after article on who is the next manager to manage Spurs, then once he has been
appointed, how long will he stay for?
It has been almost three weeks since
Daniel Levy decided to kick Mourinho in the proverbials.
Our hopes of securing UEFA Champions
League football for next season were all but ended yesterday following a 3-1
defeat to Leeds United at Elland Road.
Failure to qualify for European club
football's top-level competition could significantly impact on who we can appoint
to become our next stooge to have his strings pulled by Chairman Daniel Levy's,
who is searching to select the next court jester.
Mourinho, who has already sealed a
return to Roma ahead of the start of next season, was axed three weeks ago
tomorrow, with Levy having already suffered blows concerning his hopes of
appointing either Julian Nagelsmann or Erik ten Hag as his replacement.
Nagelsmann was immediately favourite
with the bookmakers to replace Mourinho. Still, Bayern Munich moved quickly to
secure the services of the RB Leipzig boss, confirming he will replace Hansi
Flick ahead of the start of the 2021/22 campaign. Ten Hag, however, has put pen
to paper on a new contract at Ajax, which will stop Levy in his tracks where Hag
is concerned.
However, who we get must be allowed to
give the club a bloody good kicking in the crystal balls and bring them back up
to scratch (with a few new arrivals).
Other names linked to the Tottenham job
include Brendan Rodgers, Graham Potter and even Belgium boss Roberto Martinez.
Concerning Simone Inzaghi, the odds
have heavily reduced with him now the favourite to replace Mourinho. After being priced at 20/1 by SkyBet, he is now
the favourite for the job. He has gone through the youth
systems as a coach and manager at Lazio. Currently, he has the Italian club in sixth place in Serie A, with four matches left to play (similar to Tottenham's
position in the league).
Scott Parker, Potter and Rodgers are all currently joint-second favourites, with odds on those three presently being offered at 7/1.
Just behind those three, Nuno Espirito
Santo, former Liverpool and Chelsea boss Rafael Benitez and German Ralf
Rangnick are priced at 12/1.
Ryan
Mason is priced at 20/1.
Here is the complete list of current odds to be the next Spurs
manager, courtesy of SkyBet:
Simone
Inzaghi - 9/4
Brendan
Rodgers - 7/1
Graham Potter
- 7/1
Scott
Parker - 7/1
Nuno
Espirito Santo - 12/1
Rafael
Benitez - 12/1
Ralf
Rangnick - 12/1
Antonio
Conte - 14/1
Roberto
Martinez - 14/1
Eddie
Howe - 18/1
Hansi
Flick - 18/1
Julen Lopetegui
- 18/1
Maurizio
Sarri - 18/1
Jurgen
Klinsmann - 20/1
Ryan
Mason - 20/1
Massimiliano
Allegri - 22/1
Mauricio
Pochettino - 22/1
Ralph
Hasenhuttl - 22/1
Erik ten
Hag - 25/1
Marcelo
Bielsa - 25/1
Gareth
Southgate - 28/1
Joachim
Low - 28/1
Ledley King - 28/1
So, that is it, who do you fancy? I would like Brendon Rogers or Klinsmann, who I don't want is Ledley King, Scott Parker or Mason; they are too inexperienced.
I also
noticed that Pochetino was on the list, which is stupid. Would he be that daft
to come back to a cash-starved team dominated by Daniel Levy? I don't think so.
He has a club that is prepared to invest in the team, where Levy won't. Daniel Levy
believes that investing in large amounts of money in teams isn't sustainable,
however, investing enormous sums in himself, the board and investors is money
well spent.
It is finally here, a new super
book about the greats, Glories and all you want to know about the Tottenham
great players (we are not worthy!) who have graced White Hart Lane and beyond.
Sixty years ago this month, the Greatest Football club in the world won the
double with probably the most outstanding team on this planet.
Has
your eye's seen the Glory? If yes (or even no) click HERE and follow the link, then they/ you will, and for
those that are longer in the tooth (in other words, old like me).... be
prepared to be dazzled all over again!
COYS!
All the
best, Glenn
