I was referring to the points dropped domestically. They’d usually have the league won by now.Quote:

Interested to see how quickly they improve under Tuchel
As MW said maybe as simple as losing the best goal scorer in Europe and not replacing him.Quote:

Poch knew the squad needed refreshing and gave the club his plan to do it. Levy ignored him. Insane decision making.
Spurs sniffing around Nagelsmann apparently to replace Conte
Would be a terrible move for Naglesmann. Should wait for a club with ambition.Quote:

More or less, but the 20 point gap between them and The Arse, won't be going unnoticed.Quote:

Yet they are always spoke about and defined against winning something, or not. Challenging for top 4 is about right IMO.Quote:

The problem is that the owner and chairman don’t actually know how to put together a winning team, but think they know better than anyone else.
It’s embarrassing how empty their trophy cabinet is given the circumstances.
I don't envy the next spurs manager btw , previous spurs manager's have had easier times with big clubs like arsenal, Liverpool, Man United being poor, these are all improving , Newcastle United will also improve and be in the mix for top 4 as will Chelsea and city too . 7 teams fighting it out for a top four finish ! Somebody's going to be disappointed.
Always interesting to see an outside view and this is the Aberdeen job as seen from Denmark.
Aberdeen are keen to make Danish coach Jess Thorup, who was sacked by Copenhagen in September, their new manager, but the 53-year-old is unlikely to accept the job as the Pittodrie outfit have become a club in chaos. (Ekstrabladet)
They completely mismanaged the stadium build and that cost an awful lot more than it should have done. Typical of Levy knowing best...Quote:

He's a good manager, but Leicester should be doing better. They have been dragged into the relegation dogfight now. Leicester is a good job for someone to take.Quote:

Agree , sold some of there best players and didn't back Rodgers , not the managers fault imo , rate Rodgers highlyQuote:
