Why Nobody Wants To Manage Tottenham

  • Tottenham's search for a new manager is now over 3 months old, and has seen public and private rejections from Arne Slot, Julien Nagelsmann, Vincent Kompany, and a host of others. All this, after outgoing manager Antonio Conte pointed the finger of blame for the club's poor season squarely at the feet of Chairman Daniel Levy.
    But why are so many managers reluctant to take, what should be, one of the most attractive projects in European football?

      Nah, Levy clearly plans financially around getting Top 4. With Conte and Harry he clearly thought about the possibility of both walking so brought in Richarlison and Djed Spence, people who fit Conte’s need for depth and style, but also could adjust to a new direction if needed such as Richarlison becoming Kane’s replacement and a young Djed Spence developing into a threatening wing back to start with Persic gone.
      There is clear thought into the philosophy of recruitment in wanting players who are capable of playing in the league but can grow in value and skill with the team, but with no consistency in the vision to f what kind of football you are going to play you end up with a bunched of skilled players who have no idea where they will play.

      We knew how we got there. That is why Poch wanted new blood, but Levy refused to buy into his creative project. Now, we see the result of Levy being unable to reach his wallet when quality is desired but grows long arms when he is fleecing other teams of their players. Most of the time, those players turn out to be rubbish.

      I get that Levy is the the main problem but I do feel uneasy when managers like Conte and Jose pass all the blame and don't take any accountability. Whether Levy could get Conte the players to fit his system and win silverware is one thing but Spurs lost and drew plenty games in which they had much better players and they tactically got it wrong. There was a lot of face saving from Conte for me, he wanted to protect his reputation (which I get) so he threw the players and owner under the bus. Surely he knew to some extent how things would go when he first took the job?
      Spurs fans won't wanna hear this but they need to cash in on Kane, get a young manager in like they did with Poch and just be patient, lower expectations for a couple of years and get a set philosophy and style of play worked on. Essentially do what Arsenal did with Arteta (again Spurs fans won't want to hear that).

    Speaking with mates who support Spurs, I've always saw parallels between Levy and Ashley. There are differences of course, Levy wants the business side to thrive and I genuinely think he wants the club to do well but he just isn't good at making the footballing decisions. Ashley was a smart businessman in the sense he knew how to do the bare minimum but keep the club plodding along without having to invest much. They're both examples of successful businessmen trying to run football clubs but like I always said with Ashley, mediocrity just doesn't cut it anymore, if you go out there to get top four you'll end up 7th, if you go out there to get mid table, you'll end up in a relegation fight. If you're not moving forwards you're moving backwards because there are plenty of other clubs on the rise. Much like Ashley, I don't see Levy ever changing, the issue is Ashley couldn't be arsed with the stress as he never really enjoyed running a football club, Levy on the other hand loves it so I can't see him passing the reigns anytime soon.

For me it seemed crazy getting two big personalities who are more short term like Jose and Conte (the opposite of Poch) and expecting it to work. It reminds me a little bit of Ashley bringing in Rafa (although that did breed some success in terms of promotion), it's always going to end in tears. Mourinho and Conte aren't blameless in all this though, for me they were paid handsomely and surely knew what Levy would be like yet they took the money, started alright and ultimately threw everyone but themselves under the bus when things weren't going well - Conte perhaps spoke some home truths about the club as a wider entity but he didn't address the issues that he was there to sort, the motivation, the tactics, the game management.

What we needed was a manager who could rebuild our squad instead, levy got 2 serial winning managers who have never done a rebuild, instead they win trophies with teams that have the ability to win trophies. In our case, we aren’t a team like that. Poch was leading us to that stage of winning trophies, he needed more signings and more quality players to achieve that. Instead, levy panicked and sacked him. He panicked again and got serial winning managers in hopes of them achieving instant success, when he doesn’t realise that spurs need a manager who’ll stay for long term and reset the whole team.

    There are a dozen reasons why Spurs are where they are. The Champions League final against Liverpool was the high point for that squad of players, and many should have been sold or moved on after that and replaced with 'better' to help grow the club in Europe. It didn't happen, and that was four years ago. Then covid hit and suddenly Levy realizes if he wants to be 'competitive' he needs a bigger stadium and tries to build one with all the covid restrictions. (This, twenty years after United; City; Arsenal, hell, even NEWCASTLE had already figured this out PRE covid !) The consequence of that meant there were expenses and delays not planned for and that meant 'stop-gap' Managers until it was completed and Spurs had a guaranteed 50,000+ through the gate each week. Then they come up with a convoluted ticketing system which instantly priced the occasional WHL fan completely out of the chance of getting a ticket. WHL becoming a 'shopping experience', a 'nightclub experience', A dining experience....but not a footballing one. I'm sure it's a 'great' business model, but it's also a lousy footballing one.

    The decision to sack Mourinho the week of the League Cup final against Man City remains baffling to this day.
    I understand why Mourinho was sacked the league performance was poor, but by sacking him without giving him a chance to try and win a trophy, remains staggering.
    Effectively Tottenham said in that moment 'we don't care about winning the League Cup'. And for some clubs that's understandable (especially those like Man City which win trophies on a regular basis), and the League Cup can be regarded as a distraction... but when you are team that has not won trophy in over a decade (now almost two decades), you should prioritise winning any trophy at any cost.
    Look at Manchester United, look at how important they played up their League Cup win as an 'ending of a trophy drought'. Then look at Tottenham which fields weakened teams for stuff like the League Cup or FA Cup because their bosses only care about Champions League football.

    @tobaepebinuade5830 Před rokem +12

    I mentioned the poor managerial decisions and that contributes to the lack of success a team has. During their trophy drought, their best period came under Mauricio Pochettino where Tottenham were always in top 3-4 in the premier league when he was there and they played attractive football too and this was the manager who got your team to a champions league final, the farthest they've ever gotten to in the competition, the next season he was sacked, they had a slow start in the league that year but who fires a coach who gets your team to the champions league final months before he got fired, it makes no sense. Then they got Jose Mourinho who wasn't any better. He again wasn't really backed by Levy and one of the dumbest things he did was sacking him 6 days before a cup final. The football they played under him wasn't great either but you're playing a cup final and the timing of his sacking shocked the footballing world and it made no sense, many Tottenham fans can argue that if Mourinho wasn't fired, he would probably have ended their trophy drought. Nuno Santos was worse, after a poor run of results to start the 2021/22 season, he was fired and then his replacement Antonio Conte started well, he improved the team as the season went on and his system helped Tottenham play a well-oriented style of football good attack and solid all around and he got them in the top 4. He was backed by Levy and they brought in a lot of players last summer and many felt like Tottenham would challenge for the premier league title, I never believed that even though they signed a lot of players. Tottenham's football this season was bland, it wasn't interesting at all, and Conte made a rant about the history of Tottenham and their small club mentality the owners and the players are the reason why they haven't won anything in 20 years. After all that, he was sacked at the time they got rid of him they were in 4th place and Stellini the caretaker the results started to suffer and were slowly out of top 4 contention and then after a 6-1 loss to Newcastle, Stellini was fired and they finished 8th. When a club is lacking consistency with their managers, how will you win a trophy. Now we're not sure who'll be in charge of Tottenham next season but whoever is their coach, there has to be a structure within their squad and backing of the manager because you cannot continue sacking managers left right and center because there's absolutely no sporting project at Tottenham right now and the owner has absolutely no idea how to properly run the club and now they're in a situation where no manager wants to go to this club and Daniel Levy only has himself to blame for his incompetence with managers in recent years.

      Poch openly said in the summer following the champions league final that the house needed new furniture ie new, different players and wasn’t backed by Levy. When it all fell apart Poch was sacked for something he said was going to happen not Levy for ignoring the recommendations of his experts. In any other business Levy would have been removed from his post years ago, he’s a destructive force in the club and the primary if not only reason for the utter shambles we’re seeing today

Tottenham are not a football club, the way things have been playing out for them it's a football circus and this ownership he's a disaster and the lack of consistency in the managerial department baffles me because they constantly change managers and as a result, it's been difficult for them to hire a new coach. Sacking Mauricio Pochettino was stupid, during this 15 trophy drought, Tottenham had their best period under him, they finished in the top 4 in 4 straight seasons and got them to a champions league final, yet got rid of him next season, they lack a direction when it comes to manager and have no sporting project whatsoever and they'll keep struggling if Levy continues to follow this model.

    As other comments have mentioned, spurs have no real plan, and building a new stadium that didn’t give funds to their best manager poch, is the reason why they’re at, where they’re at. Imagine having a squad good enough to actually challenge for the prem from 2016-2019, and also being able to challenge for the Ucl, but instead of backing your manger up with the ability to buy depth, you say nah.
    That’s crazy, could you imagine the out rage from other fans if your team finished 3rd in the prem, and actually was always top 4, and also did well in the Ucl, even going to the final once? And not backing the manager and young players? Harry Kane, and Son were 25/26 when they got to the Ucl final, and they stayed good up until now.
    Maybe spurs feel like they’ll find another good player like how they had bale, and then Kane and son, but I really hope they don’t. I really hope the don’t find another good player and they stay stuck in limbo for a while. You can’t reach the Ucl final, and not try to add depth to your team and try again, spurs literally could’ve been Liverpool, had they actually invested in the squad. It’ll never make sense to me how you could do this to a team. It’s actually crazy.
    Hopefully son and Kane leave soon, I’d love to see son win some trophies, maybe he can join Bayern and be their new striker, I mean he’s pretty dumb good considering he’s a second scoring option.

    it not like levy is flexible in his approach he is determined to drag out negotiations until he thinks he gets the right price so potentially that is a considerable amount of the transfer window in which spurs are missing out on their transfer targets whilst negotiations drag out until kane is sold than a frantic last minute search for replacements.

    One thing you didn’t add was the fancy new stadium has to be paid and financed for
    It doesn’t come for free

      Why haven't they just sold the right to the name already? Tottenham Hotspur stadium sounds shit as it is, just sell it to Google, and there you've paid off a huge chunk of the cost - never mind all these gigs and american football they're putting on there. I never get the point of paying for a big fancy stadium if it means you can't invest in the team properly for a decade.

      The stadium financing is NOT an issue. It is secured against long term loans which are extremely easy for the club to service.

      As for the Naming Rights, Levy wants to retain this as a revenue carrot within any sale of the club. Indeed, it shows how strong the club is, that they don’t need it.

    As a Spurs fan, I wouldn’t either.
