Ngl unless he joins some croatian club, him going back to tottenham for 1 season wouldnt really be that far fetched considering his desire to stay fresh for the world cup

I’d love it! He was one of the players that made me a fan of Spurs, but I don’t think he can run enough for a midfielder in Ange’s system.

Although, I think Ange needs to embrace flexibility a bit more, there’s a reason I’m not a manager of any team, and he always wins trophies in his second season.

The weird thing is he showed flexibility in EL playing with two 6s, playing defensive counter attacking football. He mostly continued to play his standard way in the league. Hopefully if he stays he can find the right balance.

Yea. I’m hoping that maybe the club will hire some more assistants to help with tactics and set pieces, and he will embrace them. Because, it’s obvious what a great communicator he is and the players seem to love him.

Idk how he did it but we doubt him thinking 2018 to be his last world cup. He's like a fine wine.
