    Here is what blows my mind - THEY DID CALL A FOUL!!! There is the ref signalling advantage on the push on Moura. So clearly he saw that as a foul. Then would have come the handball, then the

So far everything on the twitters says Mourinho.

The idea of Mourinho working with Levy is hilarious.

Yeah, y'all have fun with that, if true.  

The only reason they sack him like this, at this time is because they have someone else lined up.   Word was that he lost the locker room.  Duh.

Can't say I agree with this at all.   This season has sucked for sure but he should have been given the chance to turn it around and to go through another transfer window.  

OK.. I am not as knowledgeable on this stuff as most of you but can someone explain to me why Spurs want a guy who couldn't get it done with Man U's resources?

Also coming from a casual observer.   Look at what Ole has done with the same group.  Nothing and maybe even regressed.  It was a bunch of talent with bad attitudes.  It wasn't Jose who was the problem.   The guy is by all accounts an asshole.  But so are a lot of great coaches.   Every interview Ive seen of him shoes he is smart AF about the game.   

 

I feel like we just fired Mack Brown or Rick Barnes for Charlie and Shaka.   We are going to be like a child who has just wandered in from the desert. 

Holy shit.  Two people in a row admitting that they are not the end all be all most knowledgeable motherfucker on any topic on Surly has to be some kind of record.

Ryan Mason running through team for now. Hope they find someone other than Jose. That would suck.

because premier league teams have some sort of weird fetish about hiring managers who have previously coached in the premier league, success or not. it’s why woy hodgson is still employed.

mou has reportedly agreed to terms. 

It's official.. Mourinho named manager.

Mou has succeeded everywhere he has gone outside of his stent at manure and he loves London.  Mou, Hodgson, Allardyce, Pulis are not the same animal.

The real question is why Levy agreed to this. I think this is an awful choice and there could be some immediate success early next season, but this is going to blow up and I'll enjoy watching it.

The fact that no one thinks it's going work tells me that it might just work.

Someone mentioned that when Mou was at United he talked about how United couldn’t just buy whichever players from Tottenham anymore. He specifically named Kane, Dele, and Son.

Something about Mous comments on BT after the UCL loss make me think he wanted the job.

I've read one thing that said he's been scouting and watching Spurs for a year so he could take over.

Another said he was told by Levy that there would be no transfer $$ in January.

I know it's all mostly crap.

Eww Matic? Isn't he like 40. Also, at what point does he go after Modric?

I read this morning that he wants Bale and Matic. 
Good luck getting Levy to spend.
Not if I what I read is correct. I can see Jose saying to Levy. I don't need anyone else to win. I can win with this squad as is.

Clearly you haven't had Jose as your manager yet.

No but we've had Levy as an owner.  And when Levy said.  You're not getting any money in Jan.  I assume Jose said.  I don't need money to win with this team.

I am feeling more and more this move is all about the CL... Outside of Liverpool and maybe Barca i dont see really any team that Spurs wouldnt feel like they have a good chance against

City, beat them last year( with lots of craziness)

Bayern...will see how 2nd match goes and wont face them first knockout rd

Psg,real,juventus....meh
Will be an interesting draw for sure

Of course spurs have to play well under mo but if there is improvement they have the talent

I think José is betting on the FA this year. He can probably go deep in that tourney with the current squad.

I dunno.  Maybe it’s because this is Levy’s first every job involving a sports franchise?

Words Jose would never say honestly.

Son opens the scoring of the Mou era. 
 

So I will say this - the team is playing a lot better. This lineup is good. What this appears to do is put the team on reset. The doghouse is empty. Everyone starts at zero. I can’t stand Mou, but this game makes you realize something had to change.

Moura!!!

I like seeing Moura in the starting XI, and there is definitely a different feel to the team today.

Does Dele make that play 2 weeks ago?

 

That goal was so good.

Pochettino kept playing Dele as a winger. Dele plays much better centrally.

They didn’t finish well, but a win is a win. They have work to do, including getting into shape. Hopefully this starts the turnaround. 

It's a start.  And Aurier only did one stupid ass thing.
