@BharadTA @thespursweb No I get that the cost is higher. But if you miss out, you will have already lost the money. Also paying 2 years of wages AND bringing in a new manager AND then also paying him sounds counter productive to me. Or at least too expensive to Levy.

@simonyemane @thespursweb I guess we will have to wait and see. There have also been suggestions that Jose could be put on gardening leave like Poch was rather than receiving a pay off. Ultimately, the opportunity cost of missing out on CL football is higher than Jose's contract.

@BharadTA @thespursweb What do you make of the reports out of sky and Ornstein yesterday stating the opposite, as well as the financial implications in a pandemic year. I get the “judging by Levy’s record” but this is not any other year, and Jose’s salary is not any managers salary.

@simonyemane @thespursweb Reports certainly seem to suggest so and going by Daniel Levy's record, I think Jose would have to get us into the top four if he is to keep his job.

On an unrelated note, it's these types of beautifully chaotic Spurs performances that made me first fall in love with the club. #COYS

Mourinho on Rodon: "Next game he plays for sure... Not a coward in the duels. A brave boy. He made one mistake, unlucky. One mistake out of context of a very good solid performance."

Just like how the West Ham result prompted Jose to change his tactics and adopt a more pragmatic approach, our recent results should hopefully convince him to play more on the front foot instead of defending 1 goal leads. We clearly still haven't found the right balance

That was the 10th goal of 15 Spurs have conceded from set-plays this season. Four pens and six from corners or lateral free-kicks. A clear weakness #THFC #COYS

@simonyemane Yup. It'll be interesting to see if Dier plays as the sweeper and Sanchez as the RCB or vice versa. I would guess the latter.

@BharadTA same tactics as against Antwerp. high line and the high pressing means the quicker Sanchez and Davis are the better options.

The result at Anfield was painful. This one is just disappointing as we got what we deserved. We have just proven all of our critics right with our inability to really impose ourselves on the game even when we were chasing it. Some serious tactical question marks

Strip away any Mourinho prejudice and the rage of losing in those circumstances, and I struggle to see how that was anything other than a really encouraging performance. Were the better side in 2nd half and created three really good chances to beat Liverpool at Anfield. #THFC

@simonyemane @LaurensJulien It's not just an analysis piece mate. Love him or hate him, he has a few sources when it comes to French players and there are some interesting revelations in there.

@BharadTA @LaurensJulien ok, I'll read it bc YOU recommended it. But man I don't like Juliens analysis of most things football. listen to his pod and you get what I mean. The man knows next to nothing about the game.

When we were playing attacking football under Poch and were beaten to the title by two counter-attacking sides in Leicester and Conte's Chelsea, people were calling us bottle jobs. Now that we are sitting at the top, the same people are questioning Mourinho's style of play.
