Tim sherwood sacked

klose

Shock horror!


Not really though, left with the highest win % of any spurs at 59% despite it being a small sample size. What next for spurs and their revolving door?

Dempsey

If spurs had any sense, they'd sack Daniel Levy too

djPSB

Tim you facking Lemon.

Back to Eastenders.

ShaneU

Who would have thought a manager who let a fan take his seat on the bench would be sacked soon after?!

keano_afc

Good work Agent Tim. You may report for further assignments.

mike65

De Boer or Mauricio Pochettino

cson

He knew the game was up hence his stunt on Sunday with inviting the fan into the dugout.

You'd imagine the myth of Levy being some transfer guru is well and truly blown out of the water now.

Agent Tim, we have role for you in Manchester as successor to Agent Moyes.

Please deploy.

wandatowell

hahaha excellent work Spurs.

upstairs for coffee

The Telegraph says Levy wants Pochettino. Would be career suicide for Pochettino.

May the Silly Season Begin

Sherwood's CV will show 59% Premier League win record in his first management job.

He's our agent, hands off!

Was always going to be the case.

I can only imagine he did not want to drop back down the ladder at the club, which from his point of view (if nothing else is lined up) is a bit strange, and from the clubs point of view is even more strange.

I don't like his 'breath of fresh air' approach, but he was doing a very good job with it being his first job.

Agent Coulson

Just when Tim was starting to grow on me.

SlickRic

Moyes-ho!

gandalf

LOL Agent Moyes your new assignment should you choose to accept is to infiltrate White Hart Lane for "Operation Championship bound!".

Thing is, Spurs aren't even the biggest circus club in London - that honour rests with Chelsea.

What's even more sad is it is like they are trying to replicate the Chelsea way of doing things

Slagging off your players & employers in the media was never going to end well.

Mr.Micro

Sherwood is far too volatile, IMO. Never thought he had the longevity to be the permanent manager. I think it's very difficult to get the right fit of manager for Spurs.

feel sorry for the fans.. as usual knee jerk reactions by the men in blazers wanting instant success... just like at chelsea (and I am a Chelsea fan) constant quick hiring & firing does more damage than good.

I'm confused, do you think this sacking was a good idea or not?
Your post quoted suggest not, but your post in the Chelsea thread calling him "Tim nice but dim" suggests that it was the right decision, considering he is, in your opinion, dim.

As a footballing decision I dont think it's a good one by Spurs for them as a club, they will never have stability with endlessly going through managers.

The child in me (as a fan of a rival club) thinks it's always (IMO) good to see rivals (big or small) go through some upheaval.

Very messy club. AVB should have been given more time - especially as he was trying to bed in what was basically a new team. Sherwood was a stupid appointment and one that was always going to end this way.

He wouldn't be my cup of tea but he tried and he seemed to have a genuine feeling for the club so sorry for him on that front.

Kudos LL on managing to integrate your hatred of all things Chelsea into a thread which has nothing to do with us. 8788 days and counting :pac::pac:

rob316

He had to go but Lewis should sack Levy too, he has past his sell by date. Spurs have an almighty battle to get even near top 4 next season.

I must say enjoyed his honesty but he is to volatile to be a manager. If he can keep the passion in check he can be a good manager.

GavRedKing

I'm going miss Tim.

We need more gilets in football.

Gringo180

Spurs are a joke with managers. Who in there right mind will want to go there with Levys track record of giving coaches the bullet prematurely?

In fairness Arsenal don't need moles to beat Spurs.

No clue where Spurs go from here. Pissed away a ton of money to flounder around in 6th place.

PropJoe10

Nobody in their right mind would work for Daniel Levy. Sherwood was fupped the minute he went in there. Awful club.

QPR scoff at this suggestion.

I am pie

Pochettino will take the job I fear, he seems unsettled at Southampton after the changes in boardroom and has mentioned he'd think about his future. Sadly for them I see a lot of their better players going too, some no doubt up the road to Spurs who are clearly looking to field a B,C and D team with the amount of players they have in !

Would not be surprised to see Tiger Tim pop up at West Brom now

Rumour has it Harry Redknapp for a return...

- Sherwood has done all that could be expected. For people to suggest that he's done as badly as David Moyes is just nonsense.
- His contract (18 months) meant it was guaranteed that he was undermined from day 1.
- His team's confidence looked utterly shattered when he took over.
- He wasn't given any leeway to bring in his own players in the January transfer window.
- He brought Adebayor back out of the cold and got him scoring.
- He got Eriksen back on track, looking like the top flight player I think he will become.
- He had a higher PPG than AVB in the Premier League.
- He beat United and Everton in the league (AVB failed to do the same this year).

He's got his team finishing in 6th place, which is exactly where most people would have had them at the start of the season.

grumpymunster

Could be a job for the interim one, if he wants to get back into English football and leave Napoli.

AVB was a charlatan and a spoofer.

Tim Sherwood. We want you to stay

Sacked? I thought it was a temporary position.

18 month contract with a break clause at the end of the season.

Rumour is he got sacked because he failed to do the one thing he was asked this season, keeping Spurs out of next years Europa Cup.

I did state that it was a rumour...that I started :pac:

Lukker-

In fairness he did a good job.

AVB had them playing dour predictable football.

He went back to basics and had them playing some decent stuff at times, he really got the best out of Eriksen and Adebayor too. And he put a lot of faith in Harry Keane too which seems to have paid off.

He was certainly a little bit naive both tactically in the big games and with some of his comments, a little too honest at times which obviously isn't going to endear him to the board.

I think he has done himself plenty of favors though, he could end up at bottom half PL club or at the very least a Championship club.

BBC reported it as "Tottenham have parted company with manager Tim Sherwood after the club finished sixth in the Premier League". Says it all really.

Roaster

I saw something on twitter last night (think from Paul Hyland) that Sherwood is 6/1 ON to become the new Brighton manager.

Most of the pundits (at the start of the season, pre-Ozil signing) had Spurs finishing above Arsenal because of the so-called great signings Spurs had made. That was a lot higher than sixth.

Never believed it myself though.
