Of course not mate, to both you and H. My point was more about how two unbelievably successful managers end up at two clubs we ridicule, which also result in both sets of fans disliking each of them.
But regards your points, when do they become Mark Hughes and Sam Allalrdyce?
I could sort of see the reasoning behind Mourinho, cos Spurs have had a good team for a number of years, but one that hadn’t actually won anything so as years went by, the memories would just fade. I think Levy just took a gamble purely to try and win a trophy as the clock was ticking, be it the FA Cup or Europa League, so that this team he built didn’t just get forgotten amongst all the other failed Spurs teams.
Of course now it looks like a really shit decision (even though they can win the league cup, doubt they will though). Still, there was some kind of logic.
But with Ancelotti, that was just Everton’s bosses being so giddy that he’d go there, they didn’t think it through. They make so many poor decisions, both managerial and signings. And again this summer they’ll probably just go through the process again, spending too much, and making more mistakes.
If either of then take over at the likes of West Brom or Stoke - then we can talk about Allardyce and Hughes comparisons
