Daniel Levy - Chairman

I guess, but didnt BMJ also go up to have some talks with Saudi Sportswashing Machine prior to his sacking?

So Jol spoke to another club, Levy spoke to another manager, tit-for-tat, same for both.
His sacking only came out because someone leaked it, so not Levy just being a clam.
 
I will be really interested to see what he does now, if the is any sort of a plan.

Really wished Mitchell had been allowed to be the sort of director of football he wanted to be.

There is always a plan with Levy

Nobody gets to do their job exactly how they want, we need a DoF but I'm not completely sold that we missed out on the 2nd coming with Mitchell
 
Plus ca change... wonder if Levy’s transfer committee will be brave or opt for the cheaper option of managerial revolving door...

Thanks Steve. Plus ca change indeed. I feel like we tried 20 managers and none of them could properly motivate and focus the players.
So we signed a deal with the devil and allowed the Might Mourinho to have a go at motivating our players, and he has failed.

I don't know the reasons, but I feel pretty resigned now to Spurs never being properly motivated and focussed for all games, it just seems impossible to motivate a Spurs team, they just don't care as much as the opposition, so we always fail. Forever.

Not quite sure how one can conclude that Redknapp and Pochettino couldn’t motivate the players?
 
Their final years were woeful. Absolutely woeful "efforts" and performances. They managed to motivate them for a while, then it all crumbled as usual. Poch was a shell of a human by the end, mumbling darkly and looking like he had 3 hours sleep per night.
Is that not the description for most managers tenures to varying degrees. Team does well, then not so well, manager leaves. Otherwise they'll be in the job forever.
 
Poch got the best out of our players for a while for sure so he could motivate, sadly he had lost that at the end and i guess we will never really know why. But its obvious that the same players who downed tools at the end of Poch are doing it again for another manager, we need to get those players out and get some in who are willing to put more effort into their games then we have at the moment.
