Igor the Interim

Nope. Dier player almost exclusively DM in the 15/16 season. In 16/17 Alderwireld got injured and Dier was playing CB in a 4 next to Vertonghen. When Alderwireld returned they went to the 3.

I thought Toby's injury was in the lead up to a WC year. That would have made it the 17/18 season. Wasn't he getting frustrated that Poch wouldn't put him back in and left him on the bech for a while?

Well he can talk the talk that’s for sure. Impressed with his approach

He's a lot, lot more assertive than TF ever was.

Clever words in there too about the need to work first with what he has, then instil his own style on things.

If he is the taskmaster he's alleged to be, that may be why his approach doesn't survive past the short term. What I hope is that Arsenal know they are in a game - if we can get a point or better from what is essentially a free hit, and really set the Lane buzzing then Igor will find the Spurs faithful will roar him on.

Champions league is going to be interesting too, as he will need to determine whether we focus on one or the other, or both where league and CL are concerned.

I'm happier having heard him speak that we can get something from this spell.

- Rumour, data and logic suggest Tudor was a Paratici nomination
- You can have all the qualifications in the world, but if your fudging company owner had to override you (after disagreeing with you two months earlier) on Frank, it shows some flaws in judgement.
- The fact that we got to where we got to, shows three things, 1/Intention was there to keep Frank to end of season regardless, 2/Insane levels of hubris that we couldn't go down, 4/A willingness to accept a massive hit to club revenue (positions and lack of european football next year)
- This decision was made two months late, which again indicates the owners had more clue than the football people.

None of those things paint Vinai and Lange in a decent light, and I personally have worked with CEO's of much larger companies that are fudging clueless, got their jobs because their buddies went to said elite school and Daddy's connections, so quoting degrees and who they worked for never quite means what you think it does,

In any decently run organization those guys would be facing a very difficult time now, with very little likelihood of long-term future at club.

None of what you said is wrong but none of it mean Tudor was not already highlighted as the potential interim in case the needed to do it.
