Don't nearly all managers, at all clubs either get sacked or leave for a bigger job?

yeah, very smart..........
Compared to some of the fans, Levy is quite patient.
If we were underachieving, ie. bottom half, I'd see the issue, but we are where we can realistically expect to be. I think it's more down to a disagreement on what players should be signed, who the manager should be etc. than ENIC and Levy doing a bad job.
Not that I've seen. I'll be happy (and I think most fans would be) with the calibre of a LVG. But again levy is hardly giving Sherwood a chance. But it probably always was a temporary fix.
Not sure what the right course of action for levy is right now. I just want to be proud of the team I support and the decisions the club makes.

Probably horrify some on here but IF Tim Sherwood proves to be temporary, I would be quite happy to have a British manager managing, someone who knows this league. Mark Hughes for instance. I wouldn't go for Pochettino because his test will be when Lallana etc have been poached and he has a worse squad to manage. If LVG gets a better offer, which current PL managers would you be happy to see manage at the Lane?

well he is the one who makes the weird appointments in the first place, so he HAS to be the more patient
By all accounts he's letting Sherwood do what he wants and it was Sherwood that didn't want to add any more players (ulterior motives or not).
No I mean if the LVG story is true.

i dont blame Sherwood not wanting to blow 20 mill on the likes of Konyplonker if thats what was being presented to him
Van Gaal held talks with Levy in December – as revealed by Sunday Mirror Sport – but would not combine the job with his Dutch role and so will only join after the World Cup.
That was before Sherwood was given a permanent deal.

I meant generally rather than specific to our current case
I doubt levy would have lost faith in TS that quickly, he's only been here 2 months, and he must have seen something in him which made him believe he could do it
my issue with the situation is that I don't think you should be learning on the job at spurs, we should only be hiring the finished article

yep, horrified
Well I can't say I wouldn't be happy if that happened.
And the cycle would continue, Tactician, Motivator, Tactician, Motivator...
England is such a different culture for astute tactical managers to succeed. It still remains or gives the impression that it's an old boys club. Intellectualising anything to do with football seems to rub people up the wrong way.
I really hope LVG is a massive success if it happens. Hell I hope Sherwood is a huge success. We could analyse everything til we're blue in the face, but sometimes these players will only respond to 'just ****ing run around a bit'
I'm in favour of whatever works for us. But by the same token I want to be proud of the club, the vision we adopt, and the morals we live by. Probably asking too much

WAKE UP PEOPLE
LVG - a manager very set in his ways, doesn't adjust his system to his players, plays players out of position and falls out with everyone. left the dutch team the first time around due to players rejecting his methods. big deal he won with barca and ajax (yes he did well at AZ im not sayin his ****) so lets hire tito vilanova and frank rikjarrd then.
Tim Sherwood - has potential, ajusts his system more times in a month than avb did in 2 years. ITS HIS FIRST JOB IN MANAGEMENT, all we need at this stage is to see potential, willingness to adjust and learn which he is pretty much showing. FFS did you expect him to take the world by storm in less than 2 months and we beat everybody 10-0?? he has done as much as fergy and mourinho would have done when they took there first job in management all those years ago.
AVB - from day 1 I could tell he was useless, we played the same way in our first game as we did in his last - absolutely zero progression and ideas.
TIM has done as well as ANYONE would in his first job in management. if you cant see his potential to at least give him a couple years then your just as short sighted as the people who called mourinho "a translator" back in the day. sack Tim and watch him be good somewhere else.
