The new, new manager thread - Pt 3

All over twitter. Apparently it's robbed off CCTV (explains the angle?).

Sounds suspect to me. The club are hardly going to let anyone be able to download CCTV images from their security systems (it would be illegal under the DPA and against SIA regs) and it should be reasonably easy to trace it back.
 
don't know how true but this post turned up just after the pic


@DiamondLights61 it got rubbished quite quickly! Apparently no turnstiles at training ground #sherlock holmes

I guess the two kids are his sons (Sebastiano 18 and Maurizio 12 according to Soton's OS)?

Colour scheme looks fairly Spurs blue?

It's been sort of debunked on twitter. As in apparently no turnstile type entrance but there could always be a separate entrance for players or VIP guests I suppose.

Looks more like Heathrow to me. The pic seems to defo be him and his sons. Not sure why his sons would be there with him though.

Either way this is stuff of ITK heaven. All we need now is David Villa in Burger King with Levy.

@SimonPeach: Getting so many contradicting stories on Pochettino's future, even from the most reliable of sources. #SaintsFC need to sort it out quickly.

Just in case people don't know and are interested. Simon Peach is probably the most reliable journo on all things Saints. Also I think he covers us too.

He also tweeted that picture out which pretty much confirms he was there. For me anyway.
 
Get off Gutter Boy's back.

This is not the place for personal slights believe it or not, so cut that **** out. If you disagree, great, but try and do it in a way that is somewhat decent.

I'll give you the reasons why I would like FDB as our manager.

In no particular order:

1. As a player and a manager he is a winner. I do not think he will settle for second best and I think he will bring a true winning mentality to the club.
2. He has huge respect in the game of football and will have the English press eating out of the palm of his hand.
3. He has worked successfully with two of our best players before and both seem to speak highly of him.
4. His teams play (predominantly) a 4-3-3 formation with good, quick, passing football that I think will suit our current squad.
5. He has a philosophy where he wants to change the club from the bottom up. Every team down to the under 11s (or something like that) playing the same formation and the same tactics to make it easier to integrate young players.
6. He has a history of developing young players and bringing them from the academy into the first team.
7. He should have a good knowledge of potential players available for transfer who are not in the top price bracket (the sort of price bracket that
8. He has kept Ajax performing as the best team in the league despite them losing key players every year.
9. He seems to have a good relationship with his Director of Football at Ajax and therefore it is possible (probable?) that he can fit into our structure.
10. He likes to set his team up to play in an attacking manner and provide good entertainment.
11. He will immediately have the respect of every player in that dressing room. They will all know (or at least soon find out) that he was his country's captain and held the record for the number of Dutch caps with well over 100. They will also know that he won numerous titles as a player, including the Champions League.he is
12. He is used to managing at a high pressure club. Ajax are the Man Utd of The Netherlands and therefore he is already used to the kind of high pressure situation that managing Spurs is.
13. He is used to managing in the Champions League and Europa league. He knows what it is like to be under pressure to do well in both the league and a European competition and the squad management that this entails.
14. He doesn't seem to be a manager who would make huge demands of the chairman/DoF in terms of going out and getting high transfer fee/wage cost players. He is used to working within a set of constraints and seems to relish this.
15. He seems to really want the Spurs job. He talks about building something for the future, leaving his mark on the club which I love the sound of.
16. There is something that just seems to fit with THFC and a Dutch manager.... Perhaps because the Netherlands have always kind of been the more attractive underdog to the German efficiency.
17. I just want to have some shexy football back at the Lane.

Note that I realise not all of these are exclusive to FDB and Pochettino also fits some of the above (but not all) and Benitez does too (but, again, not all of the above).
