One Guy Lacks The Marbles
One Guy Lacks The Marbles
A managerial appointment is for next season, not this season.
A new manager Vhen Conte was sacked makes no difference, indeed it probably drops us even more points than we have dropped already.
Ten Haag for instance, had Manchester United bottom of the Premier League because it takes time, if you change a system, for players to learn it and adjust to it.
That is not the only example, Graham Potter and Frank Lampard for instance.
However, retaining the same basic system can work, like it has for Brighton under Roberto De Zerbi.
Next season Tottenham will change direction and thus, with managers unavailable until the summer, yes including Poch, Tottenham, rightly, chose to stick with the system until the end of the season.
Thus an interim manager was needed, mason has dome it before with this basic system so he and Stellini were the obvious choices.
Can the players play this system better than they are, YES.
They proved that by being third in the League, howeber, when players decide they have had enough, they get managers sacked.
Happens at every club.
The players know they are waiting for next season and aren't bothered.
As a commentator said watching the Giro D' Italia, if you are not 100% committed you can't produce your best performance.
Some fantasists seem to expect that of the last 11 games.
Dream on.
All that is happening if proving me right when I say purs have to use sports psychologists as a compulsory part of weekly training to improve mentality.
These issues should be being managed, but they aren't.
Football doesn't use psychologists in this way, they use them as a voluntary option for players who feel they might have a problem and that is generally not improving their football, but their general mental health.
As Trippier says, abuse from fans makes life difficult, meaning abuse doesn't improve your mentality, it makes it worse resulting in worse performances.
Players are telling you this, not me, players.
Still, the anti-fan buries their head to it and can't see the actual message when you write something.
If you have to explain every detail to these people so they don't misinterpret things.
I credit you guys with some intelligence.
Not everything is literal, there is a bigger message and everything you read has to be taken in the context it is written.
Thankfully it is only one guy who lacks the marbles for this.
I'll end this section by saying I think Spurs will return, as many other clubs are now doing, Chelsea, PSG, to buying and developing youth under a coach with a record of working with them.
I also don't think they are going to give the Head Coach huge power in who is purchased. It will be more about providing him with the type of player he is asking for to fit his system.
My big concern remains the same, not using sports psychologists to assess potential transfer targets mentally so that it remains a hit-and-miss affair.
Football needs to get out of the dark ages in this respect and catch up with other sports.
Spurs have the 1st XI sports psychologist I was calling for but not in the right role, we have the dead ball coach I was asking for (specialist coaches).
The club still needs to appoint a throw-in coach for instance or this be added to his remit and as you are seeing with our midfield, we need vision training added to everyday training.
I have explained that one before and how it is achieved by training the brain, again, something football coaches are behind the times with.
Tottenham are pushing new boundaries off the pitch but hasn't found the right coach to push the boundaries on the pitch, or more accurately as a part of training the complete player.
A holistic approach to training, instead of the limitations of traditional coaching.
Sevilla are pushing the boundaries in assessing players to help recruitment, but I believe it can be taken further and continued after signing.
It is a huge opportunity going begging at the moment.
Prize Money Comparison: Champions League vs Europa League
The financial rewards of playing in European competitions can be a significant factor for clubs in the transfer market, and there is a notable difference in prize money between the Champions League and the Europa League.Champions League Prize Money
In the Champions League, the prize money for the winning team in the final is around €19 million, while the runner-up receives €15 million.Additionally, clubs are awarded a significant sum of money for each win and draw in the group stage, with a win being worth around €3 million and a draw worth around €1 million.
Moreover, clubs also earn money for reaching the knockout stages, with each subsequent round bringing in additional prize money.
However, the prize money is not the only source of revenue for clubs participating in the Champions League. TV money and gate receipts also play a significant role in the overall earnings of clubs.
The broadcasting rights for the Champions League are sold for billions of dollars worldwide, and clubs receive a portion of this revenue based on their participation and success in the competition.
Additionally, clubs earn money from ticket sales for home matches, with higher attendances leading to higher gate receipts and associated merchandising.
Europa League Prize Money
In contrast, the Europa League offers lower prize money, with the winning team in the final receiving around €8 million and the runner-up receiving around €4.5 million.The prize money for each win and draw in the group stage is also lower, with a win being worth around €570,000 and a draw worth around €190,000.
Similarly to the Champions League, TV money and gate receipts are also sources of revenue for clubs in the Europa League.
However, the amounts earned from these sources are much lower than in the Champions League due to the lower profile of the competition.
Total Earnings Comparison
When considering the total earnings of clubs in each competition, the difference in revenue between the two becomes even more apparent.In the 2020-21 season, the winner of the Champions League could earn up to €82.4 million, while the Europa League winner could earn up to €21.3 million.
This shows the significant gap in earnings between the two competitions and how it can affect clubs like Tottenham Hotspur in the transfer market.
The fact the knee-jerk fans forget here is that signing a player is generally a 5-year financial commitment, not one year.
Additional revenue for one year does not enable a 5-year outlay on wages, you need guaranteed income to fund your purchase for the remaining four years, which transfer fees are generally split over.
The difference in revenue between the Champions League and the Europa League can have a significant impact on clubs like Tottenham Hotspur in the transfer market.
For a club like Tottenham, which has traditionally been more financially conservative than some of their rivals, the additional revenue from playing in the Champions League can help to fund player signings and improve the overall quality of the squad.
Moreover, the lure of Champions League football can also be a factor in attracting top-level players to the club.
The opportunity to compete against the best teams in Europe and potentially earn significant prize money can be a powerful incentive for players, and clubs that are unable to offer Champions League football may struggle to attract the very best talent.
For years, Tottenham has faced challenges in the transfer market due to their lack of consistent Champions League football.
That gap in guaranteed income needed to be addressed so that there is less reliance on it and thus the ability to sustain a better level of player.
The lower prize money and less prestigious nature of the competition may make it more difficult for Tottenham to attract top-level players who these days prioritize playing in the UEFA Champions League.
Final Thoughts
The difference in prize money between the Champions League and the Europa League, along with the difference in TV money and gate receipts, can have a significant impact on clubs in the transfer market, particularly those who are more financially conservative like Tottenham.
While the Europa League offers a lower level of revenue and prestige, the lure of Champions League football and the potential financial rewards can be a powerful incentive for both clubs and players.
Tomorrow I'll reveal the next Tottenham head coach.
