    Nobody can blame him I mean 99.99% of people on here would do the same.

    Only issue and think a few have touched on it is stop saying * about being here a long time etc... just don't say that * and Nobody can have any hard feelings

    Everyone saying this but managers can change things around then everything changes with it.

    It's not just about finding a club to play him. I'm sure plenty of clubs would take him. It's the fact he's earning a * fortune and the level he should be operating at, mid table EPL at best, in my opinion, clubs can't afford the massive fee and the massive salary it will take to get him in.

    Yes, Ange just won't play him but Spurs don't have an endless budget. They need to wheel and deal to a certain extent. If he can't get rid of Richarlison, they don't bring in another striker for millions and thousands of pounds a week. Richarlison has a contract and might not want to leave London. Again, you can't force the move and the club doesn't have the budget to entertain a third striker.

    He will almost certainly try and sign Mcgregor and Kyogo.

    Yep, money talks its as simple as that. NO ONE in their right mind would ever turn down 5 -10 times your salary in a bigger environment. Its madness to think otherwise. The day Tierney left us was the day I full realised that if an EPL team comes calling, they are off.

    What annoys me is the thought that Spurs cut his Celtic sea short only to sack him in 7 months for failing to live up to their delusional expectations

    It could be mate. Could be making contingency plans for a worst case scenario, could be deciding how we announce a new deal, could be following the government’s seemingly growing campaign about fan behaviour last Saturday. I honestly don’t know.

    For what it’s worth, I don’t believe Ange has spoken officially with Spurs yet and therefore I don’t believe a definitive decision has been made either way.

    I’ll hold out hope, but it’s the hope that kills you.

    He'll get binned I reckon after a few months...player egos will be a massive issue and freezing out players never works in the Premier League...but who knows?

    As mental as it sounds, I don't think he comes in for any of our players.

    Maybe Hatate but I'm not too worried about McGregor or Kyogo. Certainly not worried about CCV. Johnstone maybe. Certainly given they can't sign a decent Right back to save themselves. That Emerson, Porro and Docherty are all dug meat.

    Our league is * killing us. How many more times does a significant player/manager have to leave for people to wise up to this?

    It was obvious that if Spurs approached him he'd go. I can't understand people thinking he'd stay lol. You just get disappointed time and time again. Clueless and delusional.

    Absolutely * gutted. 2 years is way too short man. This is awful, awful news. I don't trust the board to make the right replacement either. How many will want to leave now too that he's gone? Who else has the bollocks to go toe-to-toe with Europe's elite?

    Feel sick.

    Which is exactly why Kyogo would go with him. Cheap option that will do what is required.

    Anyway, it’s all hypothetical because Ange hasn’t left and I’m not believing it until he’s gone. I still don’t think it’ll happen.

    Yeah this frustrates me too, what if he gets sacked in a few months at Spurs.

    We will constantly be asking "what if", and the reality is once he leaves we cannot bring him back.

    You must not know much about Spurs.

    Complete joke club who are in tatters from the very top to the bottom.

    There’s a reason so many top managers have gone there and failed.

    You’re daft if you don’t think we are at least drafting up options for replacements.

    You have to be doing that at the very least and all times.

    They got the last one right, either Howe or Ange was the right choice, hopefully that continues

    Have some faith in the board mate. Last time around they landed on Howe and Ange as the top 2 options.

    Kyogo might be a cheap option to some teams but it's not cheap for Spurs. £15m is the minimum we would want. They aren't spending that on a 3rd striker.

    You go through their team and they've spunked so much money on utter garbage that they can't get them off their books and get any sort of fees for them. One of their main wingers is still on loan because they couldn't afford the £30m fee to buy him last season.
