Well, after a long and arduous speculation circus, we've finally appointed a "head coach".
Welcome Andres villas Boas; may your stay bring us joy for years to come...
Now for the part where I pi55 on your chips.
I'm glad we finally have a coach in place and a new infrastructure is shaping up at the Lane it seems.
Can we calm down and judge the man after he's actually overseen a game?
Maybe brought in some players and we see part of this vision that Levy has for us?
Don't get me wrong, I hope he's as great as my fellow spurs fans seem to think, but I'm reserving my praise at least until we've played some friendlies with him taking a poo squat on the touch line.
There's a phrase that's used in Turkey that I think is apt for this occasion...
"If you spit on the floor, be sure that noone forces you to lick it up"
I'm still behind the man and club 100%.
I'm just swallowing my spit for now
WUMs and opinions welcome.
TTID
Call for calm

Grant Holt staying at Norwich.
That might've been a Harry target

Neutral poster here... I think AVB's a good manager (cant win what he won at Porto without having something about him).
However i have my reservations about his man management skills, Harry had this attribute in bucket loads and the players really took to him, be interesting to see if all the players buy into AVB's philosophies

One thing we'll definitely find out from how he does with us is what massive Terry & Co. really are.. as if any proof is needed.

Oh absolutely guys, like I said, I'm behind him 100%.
I'm just saving my words for when he's done the business rather than expecting matadors and miracles.
I know he's in for the long haul as well.
My point is basically, he doesn't need the pressure.
He needs to see we're more patient than other fans.
I just hope The professor gives him the time he needs.

Agreed OP - at least a full season, preferably two before we judge him. it's interesting how none of our players want to leave because Harry was sacked.. I think most of them can't wait for the AVB era.

If modric tries to force a move again avb wont spare any breath convincing him to stay

I think our season could hinge on the players we get in as much as the manager. We sooooo desperately need a striker it's untrue. If Vertonghen comes in, he needs to hit the ground running, and if Mods does go as expected, we have to prove we can cope. It's interesting times. If anything, if Mods does go, it doesn't hurt having a new manager to get the players playing in a different way, as he used to dictate our pace and play so much

AVB failed with big names and top players
Spurs have neither so they should be fine

I'd be more impressed with your Wumming if you hadn't just repeated what Serial Wumaniser said three hours ago.
