i think my number one rule with hiring managers is to assume they're not going to change their ideas about how to play football. i'm sure they all say they can change in the interview, but if they haven't coached a suitable style before, assume they can't.
it was like two or three years ago that @graceonfootball.com said about Thomas Frank, if you haven't shown a demonstrated set of ideas for how to use possession to create scoring chances, no matter how solid your record is otherwise, you're a big risk at any richer team

FT 0-0. I really hope that is the worst football match that takes place in 2026, in any league, at any level. If there's anything worse than that, something's gone wrong.

Thomas Frank has done a heinous job at Spurs, but he’s not the problem with the club and a new manager can’t fix what ails it. The squad is terrible, and has been terrible, and Tottenham can’t go anywhere until the me who built it - Paratici and Lange - are no longer in charge.

Take off Palhinha and replace him with someone who can pass the ball better, for instance a training mannequin

I sometimes wonder if I'm just an auld fella shaking my fist at clouds when I back off from modern tech, but the truth is, most big tech products are no longer built to be useful, they're built to rinse you for a minimum standard service. And even children can see this.

I have resigned in advance from any position I might hold in the future on the basis that I or someone else there will probably do something a bit wrong at some point.
