CB Posted April 19, 2021 Report Share Posted April 19, 2021 Jose Mourinho is facing the sack at Tottenham Hotspur after being summoned for talks on Monday morning, less than a week before the Carabao Cup final. Mourinho's stormy tenure is close to an end as chairman Daniel Levy takes drastic action over the club's disappointing second half to the Premier League season. It is understood that first-team coaches Ryan Mason and Chris Powell are in line to take charge for the remainder of the campaign. Tottenham's 2-2 draw at Everton on Friday night leaves them seventh in the table, five points adrift of the Champions League places, and Levy has decided the time has come to axe the Portuguese. Mourinho has dropped more points from winning positions this season than any other Premier League club and his relationship with a number of players has been fractious. Appointed as Mauricio Pochettino's successor in November 2019, Mourinho guided Tottenham to a sixth-placed finish in his first season. Tottenham return to league action on Wednesday night with a game against Southampton. The 58 year-old was told the news this morning according to sources, with his Spurs reign in considerable trouble: the draw with Everton on Friday night meant they have just one win from their last five games and were eliminated from the Europa League in March. They play the League Cup final against Manchester City at Wembley on Sunday, in what could be the club’s first trophy since they won the same competition in 2008. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2021/04/19/jose-mourinho-facing-tottenham-sack-today-brought-talks/ 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds more like peak Levy bull to deflect attention from the elephant in the room. Like Arsenal, can't string two wins together but are flying off to join a Super League. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warney Posted April 19, 2021 Report Share Posted April 19, 2021 Very strange to sack a manager six days before a cup final. Must've been something major for this to happen this morning 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scouser2 Posted April 19, 2021 Report Share Posted April 19, 2021 Spurs as a club over past few years seem to have spent more on hiring , salaries and then paying off coaching staff than on players .....the number of staff also leaving with Jose sounds-like a team sheet.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

casual observer Posted April 19, 2021 Report Share Posted April 19, 2021 Poch will be chuckling in his Parisian mansion no doubt! If he is taking a stand as a point of principle - who really knows - I don’t think (m)any of the “big 6” managers will be impressed with the announcement re the Breakaway league. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’ll have known the axe wasn’t far away and this type of move could force the boards hand while still protecting Mourinho’s reputation a bit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
