those quotes are old. i remember reading them before christmas. typical media jumping on the bandwaggon and regurgitating old news to make a headline.
Spot on, it's an easy job...pick up a large cheque no need to win anything and do whatever you want......there's isn't another club in the world where he'd get that sort of money and not be expected to deliver success.
Every single manager in the world is above him in the table.
It's an easy job compared to what most managers have to put up with at top clubs, they don't get the luxury of failing to pick up trophies for 7 years, not many get 7 million a year either.
Every single manager in the world is above him in the table.
He's not at a small or average small club here.
He was at an average Club when he arrived.
An average club don't win the amount of trophies we won when Graham was here, so that's nonsense. We haven't even won a European trophy in the time he's been here, we did before.
Loser managers would be queuing round the block for this job, 7 million and no need to deliver any success...that a manager's dream unless winning is important to you (which it is to the best managers).
Have a look at the League positions before he came.
Find another set of comparable league positions in the entire history of the Club.
Why are none of these 'loser' Managers not finishing above him.
If you disagree on big club or not, lets compare to the Club closest to us at that point in terms of resources - Tottenham. How many of their managers have come and gone?
How many finished above him?
He may not be the guy to win us the title, but to suggest he has an easy job, that anyone can replicate what he has done, suggests you have not got the first clue about what you post.
League position isn't that important to me, trophies delivered is more important...as I said before coming 4th is meaningless in every way other than financially...Id' rather win an FA Cup and feel the joy of getting to a final and being triumphant.
On a success basis, we weren't a small club, 2 league titles, an FA Cup, two league cups (when they meant something) and a CWC. Success in Europe elevates you to a new level without question and Wenger has failed to deliver in eall his time (even when in the UEFA Cup).
Spurs have changed a lot of managers, I don't necessarily agree, but they have more ambition to win then we do and in fact have won a trophy since we last won one (as have Portsmouth and Birmingham).
It's an easy job in that he doesn't have to deliver success or indeed even CL football (the club have said as much)..yet he gets 7 million a year....name one other manager on that type of salary who doesn't.
In fact name one manager who's been at a top club for 7 years and kept his job.
They have more ambition - look where that has them.
A £1 with a Spurs supporter on who will finish higher, going doule or quits since Wenger joined would in May have returned £65536. This amongst two teams with similar resources.
I have an ambition to fuck the brains out of Isla Fisher - aint gonna happen.
I can't name a Manager who has remained in post for so long at a top club without a trophy nor can I name a Manager that has been present during such a transition period.
I'd like a new Manager because we need to change something - players have come and gone, but he has been the constant. But to suggest he has it easy and lacks ambition, is absurd when supposedly more ambitious Clubs can never surpass us. In fact in more seasons than not, Tottenham's main ambition has been to surpass us.
