grifty Posted April 24, 2023 Report Share Posted April 24, 2023 14 hours ago, The Coach said: Newcastle are on the up and will pick up silverware sooner rather than later. Kane is hardly going to win back to back PL medals and cups now. But joining Newcastle or Man Utd will increase his chances massively of winning something. I look at Kane and think what a waste of a career some way. Should have left Tottenham years ago. A waste of a career? 2nd highest goal scorer in Premier League history, Highest England goal scorer and you think it’s a waste of a career? He’s stayed loyal to the club he’s been at since a kid. Had he moved 3-4 years ago when linked you would have said only interested in money. If I was the best player in the world, I would only want to play for Bristol City, I would prefer to play 700 games for us and win nothing than 50 for a premier league team and win a cup. Not everyone is motivated by jumping ship to win anything. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he was so loyal to Tottenham. Why did Kane fail to report to training when Man City and came calling? He wanted to go. It’s all his own doing as should have never signed a long term deal with Spurs. 2nd highest goal scorer in PL? Could have done that with likes of Man City or another top club with trophies to go with it. He will run his contract down and will then jump to likes of Man Utd, Chelsea or Newcastle. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not so much the trophies but you'd stay at Bristol City on £10k or week or go to Barcelona/whenever and earn £300k a week? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if I ‘was’ the best player in the world you think they would pay Kalas £25k p/w and me £10k? Id like to think if we signed Messi at 16, had him his whole career he might be the difference to get us to the Prem… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TonyTonyTony Posted April 24, 2023 Report Share Posted April 24, 2023 Wasted career? All time England top scorer and may well take Shearers all time PL scoring record as well. I kind of admire players that stay loyal to their own club. Gerrard, Shearer could have all moved to clubs and won medals but they stayed at the club they support. Hardly wasted 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldyman Posted April 24, 2023 Report Share Posted April 24, 2023 Spurs are “ considering the future of their Acting manager Cristian Stellini “ . Could there be anything more embarrassing for a Manager than to be sacked whilst you’re just filling in as the club look for a permanent new boss ?

Just did some research and surprising the list of incredible short appointments, but Leroy Rosenior lasted just 10 minutes - Rosenior holds the unenviable record for the shortest ever period as manager in the history of English football, albeit through no fault of his own. He was appointed to the head job at the same time as the managing interest in the club was being transferred to a new consortium of owners. The incoming chief executive, Colin Lee, immediately installed his own choice as manager, meaning that Rosenior was out of a job before the ink on his contract had time to dry.

Mr Popodopolous Posted April 24, 2023 Report Share Posted April 24, 2023 Caretakers usually get demoted, this is unusal- they seem to have written off the season like 2 years ago when they stuck Mason in charge from about March! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silvio Dante Posted April 24, 2023 Report Share Posted April 24, 2023 Tbf Stellini appears to have played the same way as Conte but in a less inspirational and charismatic way. Things were going downhill and appointing a man with the same football philosophy but less likely to be able to coach the players effectively was never going to work.

Northern Red Posted April 24, 2023 Report Share Posted April 24, 2023 The surprise was that Stellini stuck around in the first place. He was very much Conte's man and the assumption was that he'd leave with him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Popodopolous Posted April 24, 2023 Report Share Posted April 24, 2023 True but when they beat Man City under caretaker Stellini when Conte was out unwell they looked very decent, more positive than usual. Sacking Conte for a run in even if flawed was always likely to leave them a bit rudderless. Even moreso now I reckon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Coach Posted April 24, 2023 Report Share Posted April 24, 2023 Wouldn’t surprise me if Ryan Mason will get the job full time. I can’t see a top manager wanting the job there. Think they need to lower their standards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
