Think Mourinho is back where he wants to be: London, with a big club that’s won nothing, but a ruthless Chairman.
His mastery is cobbling together his type of players into a team that can win trophies. I think that while Top 4 is the golden chalice, CUP silverware would be manna from heaven for Spurs...and Mourinho & Levy!
Levy strikes me as significantly “less” than many thought he was...more Swales than Khaldoon.
Haven’t seen too much of substance from the players, as it’s been all about José so far, but from what I have seen, they’re the stupid rich numpties you’d expect.
Not impressed by anyone yet, even Mourinho. I’d like to see more of his tactical stuff, as that’s what he’s famous for, and the minimum on field stuff possible. It’s all about “behind the curtain” for me, as I’ve been immersed in football my whole life. However, watching how a top modern football club operates is much more fascinating to me than rewatching on field activities, esp if they’re not directly related to the behind the scenes action. One example of the latter was the discussion of Aurier getting forward on the right, which leads to him getting on the end of a pass that he smashes in the bottom corner to win the game.
Like I said, I’m a football fan and am enjoying it. Would I prefer it to be City every year though? Absolutely!
