Juande Ramos had won trophies before his failed tenure at Spurs. There was still hope there yet.

He won consecutive UEFA Cups with Sevilla, much like another Spanish manager who poo poo the bed with a London club. What's hilarious is that Ramos got hired by Madrid immediately after his time with Tottenham.

We're talking about someone who said that Juande Ramos is comparable to Pochettino, when Ramos had not only won trophies before he got to England, but is also the last manager to win a trophy for Spurs.

Basically, Pochettino is the mid 2010s 'arry. Ramos is just weird.

Juande Ramos and David Moyes both tried to get their players to stop eating ketchup and fries.

I haven’t actually seen these, but regardless, they’re being linked to literally everyone at the moment, and it seems like they have legitimately no clue what they’re doing, so I wouldn’t put much stock in any rumors right now.

In the least surprising news in the history of the world, contrary to their big words in August, United have now started briefing the press that they are unlikely to sign anyone in January and may look at loans at best. "Hard to get players", "nobody wants to sell" etc.

which is true for most good players?? nobody wants to sell until you offer them how much they value the player

Yeah, but people called this in August when United were giving it the whole "yes we ran out of time now but just you see the rebuilding will continue in January and this time we really mean it!" treatment. Nobody's coming in, the midfield will continue to be a travesty and nothing will improve.
