First two was before we had ever got into the CL. It was all about Europa qualification then.
From then on It was by and large about CL after Redknapp had given us a taster.

They have a very good DoF there now. They could do well if he aligns with a good, forward thinking manager. Doesn’t come without risk though and I’d say Moyes is the safest of safe hands when it comes to doing reasonably well in the league.
I'd have kept him.

None of them were sacked due to fan pressure…. Well Nuno was sacked due to fan pressure but it was fan pressure of ‘ENIC out!’ There was quite a funny Duncan Squires cartoon on it in the grauniad.

Why would we expect our managers not to want to be considered for other jobs? The club shows them no loyalty (I mean look at Pochettino for example) so it works both ways. The fact is we finished 4th (again) under Redknapp. He was a good manager that we should’ve kept at the time, especially as it was then clear he would never manage England.
Didn't jol drive up and had a meeting with them though?

Yes he did, i was working through the FA coaching team at the time and [ rent a quote] was making all the noises that he wanted the job and through his mates in the press he was convinced he would get it. Truth is he was never in with a shout as the last thing the FA wanted was a liar and someone who had legal problems on going.
The guy is a fraud and the reason he was popular with the press guys is because he was always willing to give them a story to fill their papers.

There's being considered for other jobs versus shadow leading a campaign via Fleet St mates. He took his eye off the ball massively and publicly. Even Rosie could see it mate...

Yes , as I understand it he had a meeting with them. I love Martin, but he wasn't afraid of seeking opportunities whether those were fiscal bumps within or potentially better jobs outside...

They play good football now, and should have won far more games than they have. They have a good foundation with good, young players, who will only get better with more experience and confidence.

I'm not calling for a change of manager, but calling this a bad patch, is a big understatement! We haven't played well since December, other than in 20 minute periods of games. I didn't expect us to continue the form from the first 10 games, but in many ways we haven't improved at all, quite the opposite.
And teams have found some very prominent weak spots.
Ange believe those can be mitigated by being fully committed to playing his style, but that's where I think he's partially wrong. At some point, you have to adapt a bit and adress the situation directly.

And structure and stability
But I don’t see that happening there
Their fan base doesn’t think the club needs a project
The oniy thing a couple of them did say was who the hell would they get instead
Tottenham possible lineup and formation for the 2024-2025 season
My 'hear me out' set up for Tottenham to trial out is 3/5 at the back. This is why. No doubt there would have been some eye rolls when reading that, with Conte-
Anyone else like to see this trialled?

Yes, the more defenders the better.

No, and it doesn't make sense in context of Ange's Spurs
- 3/5 at the back is for one of two reasons, 1. You want the FBs free to go up pitch, ours already are, 2. You want to be more defensive in nature (meaning more players, the 5, will be back/sit deep), simply not Ange's style, and we don't want to sit deep, invite opposition closer to our goal.
- I'd argue there is a case for doing the play CB at FB play (felt a bit more solid with VDV at LB) for certain games, where you simply have better defenders in the FB positions.

I think it's quite likely that there will be a narrative next season that "finally Ange is adapting" and in reality it will be either Ange doing similar adaptations to this season, us having better players, or Ange being able to adapt more being further into the process.
I don't think he's wrong.
