After a good 4-0 win over Derby County, all the talk should be about the game, instead, we’ve got rumours and reports surrounding the future of manager Martin Jol.<\/p>\nAfter a good 4-0 win over Derby County, all the talk should be about the game, instead, we’ve got rumours and reports surrounding the future of manager Martin Jol.<\/p>\n
At the moment there’s nothing official, therefore the Dutchman hasn’t been sacked and is still manager at Spurs, however, for how much longer?<\/p>\n
Jol himself has already said: “I thought there were whispers last year – and there are whispers at any club all the time.<\/p>\n
“I don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t know if I’m being undermined. I don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t think so but you never know.”<\/p>\n
I would be very disappointed if he was to be sacked after just three games. However, if the club have good reason, then obviously I’d more than likely understand.<\/p>\n
Who would replace Jol? Seems Seville manager Juande Ramos is favourite, although he has denied that he’s already held talks with a Spurs ‘representative’.<\/p>\n
Ramos said: “I totally deny that I met with any Tottenham representative. Is there any evidence that demonstrates the contrary?<\/p>\n
“It’s totally false. I was with one friend in two hotels and I’m only shown leaving and in my car.<\/p>\n
“I didn’t speak to anyone about Tottenham or any other team.<\/p>\n
“It’s true I was in the hotel as I went to see a friend who has nothing to do with football and who was in Seville on a visit. But there was no meeting about Tottenham.”<\/p>\n
Jurgen Klinsmann, who impressed whilst German national coach, has been linked to a return to White Hart Lane too.<\/p>\n
Only time will tell if Martin Jol will be leaving, but after seeing him after Saturday’s win in post match interviews, he certainly didn’t seem his old self.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
