O/T Capello Resigns / New England Manager Speculation Thread

This couldn't have come at a worse time. Not because I think Arry will take it and leave Spurs now. But because he's lost focus for the last couple of weeks already. Now there will be the 'New England Manager' Circus.

We had our best run when we were under radar, going about our business quietly and assured. At least we know Levy will fight our corner, he doesn't let people leave very easily any more, unless he wants them to.
 
There's one small hitch with the Mourinho to Spurs theory- he earns something like 15 million euros a year at Madrid. That's sixty million over four years. a little over 50 million pounds. Can we afford that? I doubt it. Unless he's willing to lower his wage demands by a preposterously large amount, we won't get him. So take a chill pill and relax. What will happen, will happen, and I'm sure of one thing; Daniel Levy will NOT put the future of the club in jeopardy. I trust him, and thus I'm pretty confident about Harry staying till the summer at least.

Good post. If the FA do approach us now, I'm sure Levy will tell them to do one until the summer.
 
Imagine the Chelsea fans if Mourinho comes to us...

Sent you down, took your best goalscorer, won 2 finals and now have your best manager....
 
What happens when Mourinho rules us out.. not sure I could face a thread discussing the merits or Coyle and Martinez
 
Mourinho to Spurs is trending world wide on Twitter. It's crazy! I can't see it at all - at least not until the stadium is built and paid for and we can afford top level wages.

I can see it happening for sure. I think that Mourinho wants a project. He has been places like Chelsea and Real Madrid where money has been no object and won things. He has gone to Italy and bettered Mancini when the natives said he couldn't. I truly feel he wants to go somewhere at our sort of level where the potential is close to fruition but needs that final push, which is where Mourinho comes in.

Its all about Ego. Can you imagine how he will be viewed if he somehow managed to win us the Premiership or the Champions League, even just once? Combine that with maybe an FA Cup/League cup and consistent top 4 finishes and he just reinforces his own view of being possibly the greatest manager alive and it would be hard to disagree with his record.

Given the fact it is an ego based thing, he wouldn't be my first choice, which would be Hiddink. However, If Mourinho came on board then we would be in a stronger position than we are now, of that I am very certain.
 
Levy wouldnt necessarily interfere, rather just deal with Finances and negotiation like he does now

And that no issue for Redknapp - something many anticipated it would be
Indeed, Levy may do the negotiations but I'm sure he's never bought a player that Harry hasn't asked for. The problem Mourhino had at Chelsea was Abramovic buying someone like Schevchenko without consulting Mourhino at all.
 
Mourinho will go to City after Mancini leaves having lost the tiitle to Utd

Why would he choose us instead? Just out of interest

He likes a challenge

Chelsea hadnt won title for 50 years
Inter were in the doldrums
Madrid been in Barca's shadow

He always talked us up saying we are a proper proper football club and how he loved the fans and the stadium
 
Harry will be staying on to the end of the season.
England have one game on the 29th February before the Spurs season is over.
There's no way he's leaving Spurs' run in to do nothing with England for the next 3 months.

He can easily do both jobs for the next 3 months. Expect Levy to get a huge pay out from the FA to facilitate this.

I hope Mourinho doesn't come anywhere near WHL. Not because of his football. Chelsea played some good stuff under him at their peak. But because he will turn the Club into a circus with a different media controversy every other week.

But Redknapp has to keep winning for the sake of his career as well. Lets say Mourinho wins la liga and the Champions League, the FA will at least consider him for the job surely? Pardew is a candidate too. If he gets Saudi Sportswashing Machine in the top 4 that would be a massive achievement!

Mass suicide

A myth born on this board and perpetuated after every article mentioning him leaving. He'll never come to us - that's like him taking on Sevilla or Valencia in Spain or Napoli in Serie A
 
Ssn say hiddink wants the England job. I honestly think he'd be the best choice for England tbh.

My Turkish mate absolutely hates Hiddink from his time at Turkey.. I brought up his record at other nations and he wasn't having it, apparently the turkish fans hate their managers as much as we have hated most of ours!!
 
Listening to some clown on BBC news 'would be the pinnacle of Harry's career' WAFLOB

Tell that to Schteeev can't hold a job in the championship McClaren

pinnacle of the end of Harry's career
