That quote about no Plan B worries me. Maybe he just means that he has corp beliefs about football that won't change. If a manager doesn't have humility when he comes to the Premier League there's a good chance he will possess it when he leaves.
I think the headline would probably be something like-"The Blunder From Down Under"

He didn’t change his formation but on several occasions the story coming out of press conferences was about being more attacking
Games? Time-frames?
If Kane stays for this season I think Spurs will be top 8. In most sport it is the case that innovative managers with a fresh tactical approach do well initially just because teams aren't prepared to counter what they are doing. I don't worry about the first half of next season as much as after Christmas. But even if the wheels fall off and he's gone in two years Spurs would have picked a direction, gotten rid of players who aren't capable of playing in an attacking system, and got the fans reasonably happy. Who knows, maybe Postecoglou is all that people make him out to be. All there is to now is just buckle up and enjoy the ride.
Honestly, I think we’re in a worse state than our 8th suggests.
Some had said that had it not been for Tuchel, the Chavs could’ve been relegated.
I think the same applies in that had we not ground out some results whilst still under Conte, we’d ended up 15th-16th.
Unless we're Everton bad than at least a couple of seasons.
Tbh my enthusiasm for Spurs is at it's lowest for quite some time, probably since Sherwood was manager and we were regularly getting thumped by the good teams and could only beat dross. That salute to Adebayor, what a joke!
Might as well accept we're winning nothing whilst Levy and ENIC remain in charge, who the manager is is almost irrelevant.

I'm not up on our finances but we may be set to lose money on one or two players ? Ndombele and Loco perhaps ? Richarlison ? Any money coming in via Harry could be offset ?
OoohAnother fucking idiot. Well done
Why bother discussing transfers?? Putting up your preferred teams?? We don’t make transfers or pick the starting 11
Why not just shut the whole page down. There’s no point in any of it then is there.
Who's mister grumpy pants today?
And you are calling me an idiot - yet you want to know when we sack a guy who hasn't actually started yet, decided on a transfer - in or out, picked a team, made a press conference or probably been to the ground yet.
God knows what you'll do when we lose the first game in his tenure....... Arrange a lynching, crowd fund the hiring of a professional hit man?
Yet you think I'm bereft of intellect.
Overly simplistic.
Our form at the end of the season was directly related to the change of coach and also the damage done by Conte already. The fact that he didn't stick around to see it fall apart doesn't mean what was good was because of him and what was bad wasn't his fault.
Our form even before Conte walked was awful..... What kept us in the top 4 mix until then was Man U & NC dropping lots of points around that same time too.

From the clubs point of view Ndombele is worth about 11m as he has one year left of his contract. Amortisation and all that. If we got 20m for him it would go down as 9m profit. Who will pay that.
Villa might come for Lo Celso as Emery was his manager at Villarreal .
Equivalent presumably goes for Villa & Brighton too.
Man U will spend up and bulk up as necessary, but yeh; next season is an open book....... Top 6 will level out and be fascinating, but Man C will walk it IMO.
Really depends on table position and results so impossible to know. If we are a relegation situation half way into the season he would need to go. Mid table but some signs of promise? Let him keep going. I have no delusions about the project he is up against, so as long as there is progress he gets my backing.
I think we both hope it's me that's right here, but I guess we'll see.
Difficult to assume that he will do as well as we hope, given that, he will be limited by, working under Levy's flawed/failed set up.
If we finish between 6th -8th that would be amazing in itself, considering the other clubs will spend, in order to really push on, we won't enter that race.
