I fear that De Boer could take Tottenham to new heights :
- Finances enough to keep up with other big teams
- Decent squad depth
- Good individual quality per player
- Can't really do much worse then AVB/Sherwood
This is all nice and dandy but not without the right manager. What De Boer has done with Ajax just shows how much he can do with Tottenham. If this deal comes into place then I see Tottenham seriously contending for the EPL and CL spots again. I don't see anyone else they can get really other than Van Gaal, but if I were in there position I'd take De Boer immediately, more for the long term improvement. Wenger's not leaving this year so chances of us getting De Boer instead are slim to none.
inb4 Too much faith in Tottenham.
