Let's all keep laughing at Tottenham.

2003 Spurs went to South Africa during preseason to play the second biggest team Orlando Pirates. They got beaten and the Pirates players were taking the piss by the end

That's lovely. The English notion of teams being disrespectful when they showboat is hilarious. I'd much rather a team showboat vs go out to rough 'em up.

Spurs close to appointing Paulo Fonseca as new manager. He did very well and was highly rated in Shakhtar but flopped at Roma.

Unknown quantity, don't mind them appointing him

From whatever little I have seen of his team at Roma -

his teams play attractive football, leak a decent amount of goals and have a horrendous record against their big team rivals.

Mildly amusing if he replaces Mourinho at Sprs and Mourinho replaced him at Roma. From whatever little I have seen of Roma, their style won't really suit Sprs who are more of a quick transition team with Kane and Son. Roma are a much more slow build-up team. Having said that, managers change.

Sucks if they're really getting Thuram.

Gazza M

it's offset by the fact they're losing kane, and son won't stick around long after that

Fonseca is having the same problem agreeing to terms set out by Spurs so they are going for Gattuso instead

mentalvortex

Looks like Spurs's move for Fonseca has hit a snag over his salary demands.

Di Marzio reckons that Spurs will start negotiations with Gattusso instead.

Gattusso resigned from Fiorentina job yesterday (weeks after being appointed) after reports of massive board room in-fighting emerged thanks to Jorge Mendes's meddling (Gattusso's agent) in the proposed summer transfer plans.

I like Gattuso and think he's a good coach. Hope he doesn't go there.

Fonseca coached in Ukraine and Italy before, he's probably not ruined wage wise so this is odd. Levy's probably trying to pay him in food stamps

No! Gennaro don't break my heart.

Clrnc

Don't rate Gattuso. Pretty much flopped everywhere he coached.

goon

Tim Sherwood is starting to believe at this point.

Gazza M

spurs supporters seem to be in shambles over the prospect of rino being appointed. this pleases me

Claudius

This won’t end well.

Spike Italian hothead working for Daniel Levy you say?

Weren't Milan and Napoli both in pretty bad shape when he took over? I may remember wrong, but I seem to remember him doing a decent job of turning around. Nothing very special, but not bad either.

Clrnc

You can be in bad shape and still do a terrible job. Napoli has been underperforming since he took over and he even manage to fucked up the 4th place UCL slot at the last match this season with a very winnable home game to some crap club.

Anyway talks have fallen through sadly. Really wanted spurs to appoint him

Gazza M

I can only chuckle for now, as I forsee similar levels of buffoonery happening at arsenal if mikel is sacked within the next 12 months

Claudius

Such an epic meltdown over Gattuso on this Spurs forum. God is testing their poor souls
