    Really? Plenty comments here, Twitter and among folk I know say otherwise. I just cannot fathom why he’d want to work under Levy, with probably a truncated budget, in front some of the most alienated and disaffected fans in the UK, as opposed to staying with us and having another crack at the Champions League.

    This.
    Would prefer Potter or Knutsen, but as a third choice, big Mick Nicholson’s handling of recruitment makes me confident that Rodgers could be successful here again.

    Hasn't made a mark or had a successful run in Europe during his time here.. until then, baffling if he goes.

    Not me mate. He's here for a while yet. He's one of us. I'm not saying he'll be here forever, but you look at the way he was after we beat Hertz the other week, in the pitch side interview.

    The man's one of us.

    Agree with all of this. Hopefully Ange stays but I wouldn't touch Rodgers with a barge poll. After the invincible season his football was chronic, his signings were awful and he's just a bit of a * in general tbh.

    Knutsen would be my first choice all day. I'm still very sceptical of this board though despite them being successful with Ange.

    Gone in to 2/1 with skybet.. can't see him turning spurs down to be honest and if I take my of green hat you can completely understand that. Just hope levy appeases the fans and gives it to a perceived big European name or Rodgers.

    Wouldn't want Rodgers back. Guys ego is out of control and for all the domestic success he couldn't crack Europe either. No way he'd work under/with Lawwell again anyway.

    Rodgers first season with us was incredible, and despite the quality of football dropping, his second season was still really good.

    That third season tho? We were still winning, but the football was horrific, knocked out the CL by AEK and lost to the huns for the first time since they came back up. Took the huns having a horrorshow themselves to keep us comfortably ahead.

    Where-as with Ange, you can tell we're getting better as we go on. We're now at the point where we need reinforcements to further propel us, but we're making fantastic progress, and it's part of the reason why I think he'll stay, there is still unfinished business here, I think he'll want to make his mark in Europe, and show up Beale, who he clearly hates.

    Rodgers burnt his bridges here when he sneaked out the back door without even saying cheerio to his players.

    Plus the decline had already set in the season previous before he did his midnight flit

    Not having a go at you so please don't take offence, however * really need to stop paying attention to next manager markets as they literally mean * all. Trying putting £100 on Ange there and you will get turned down.

    In a normal game the odds will equate to 100% so you can back each outcome and adjust your stakes so you neither win or lose. The Tottenham market on Betfair is currently 252%. Nobody including the bookies take these markets seriously until it is pretty much guaranteed and at that stage they stop taking bets.

    Yes never really pay much attention on markets for managers. Not saying they're rubbish but bookies are utter * bags and if you try put any sort of money on these markets it generally needs cleared and the market will move.

    Guarantee if you went to bookies tomorrow and asked to put thousands on a random manager they wouldn't take your bet but the manager would appear high up on the betting

    Was that Pendy on KDS? He also said he didn't think Ange would go
