Well they have scored 15 goals in 16 games, lost 5-0 and 6-0 to top 4 rival. Haven't beaten a top 4 rival and haven't looked very threatening at all.

Well they have an almost entirely new squad that have to get used to AVB's system. And you don't just change your system on a whim just because a couple of players are injured. You make those players better until they can fit in just anyone.

Give the man a season to work with. So what if they get 6th place. It's a long term plan that you should follow where every team in your club plays the same system. The reason English clubs are always so terrible tactically is because of the constant manager changes and changing systems etc. There are no automatisms at all. Except at Arsenal.

Should Man U just fire Moyes as well? Actually he should get the boot before AVB because he is actually trying to change everything that has worked for years (i.e. giving Meulensteen the boot).

Why do people still give AVB the benefit of the doubt? I mean besides that one year at Porto (where he had Falcao, Moutinho, Falcao, Meireles, Hulk, did I mention Falcao?) where he won the Europa League while competition in the Portuguese League was laughable that year (Porto had a 21 pt advantage over Benfica, 36 pts over 3rd placed Sporting), where has he shown flashes of being a good manager?

He did will with that one club though? Saved them from relegation made them finish mid table? Porto then gave him the chance to manage them and like you said inherited probably Protos best squad in YEARS. Wins Europa League, Roman takes a stab at him does fucking awful and everything wrong at Chelsea. Spurs think yeah he is good and young hire him. Now we are where are now, Spurs playing awful 1 dimensional football and everyone is wondering why he has been sacked.

Also LOL all journalists moaning at spurs for sacking him. They were all saying he should be sacked yesterday, fml xD You can't win

Haha just saw the news. Immediately thought of your bet.

And yeah. AVB's squad that year was incredible. Mourinho would have won the champions league with that squad :p

That 5-0 at HOME for Tottenham was so shockingly hilarious.

Again unfortunately AVB just went for the all the standard football manager / FIFA picks, but I don't rate that team, far too many players playing for too few positions, weakness in other positions and just general lack of leadership and character. Don't rate AVB as a manager at all personally.

I agree with Gary Linekar...get Hoddle back in! Who cares about what he said about karma and disabled people lol.

Just can't believe how easily Liverpool were scoring at the end, even with a man advantage. No defensive organisation whatsoever, and a completely muddled and disjointed attack.

Haha well 3 semi finals finishes and all with narrow defeats, so it wasn't all that bad. But honestly that Porto side was incredible, I think in a serious contest during those times Madrid would have lost against Porto.

Yeah it was an awesome team xD
Falcao finished with like 40goals in 30games that season or something daft. Plus you have young Moutinho Merieles etcetc.

Since when does AVB have any experience with long-term plans and why should a top club waste time discovering whether he will come good after he has clearly displayed a lack of leadership in general and the ability to manage people?

victim of his own success. I do think that if he hadn't lost by that large of a margin, 6-0 to City and 5-0 to pool, he wouldn't have gotten the sack though.

According to Bild, Borussia Dortmund are close to agreeing terms with Sunderland's Ji Dong Won, who is out of contract at the end of the season.


Huh didn't see that one coming?

I was going to write a long post but can't be bothered. Spurs are playing worse now than they did when AVB first took the job. Much worse. The 0-3 home loss to strikerless West Ham was simply embarrassing and his tactics have been consistently horrible.

My selfish wish for the next manager is Frank de Boer, but in truth I hope he stays at Ajax. They deserve a great manager like him.
