Juande Ramos is feeling the heat because the hapless Spurs are losing every match. It really blows when you have someone like Damien Comolli make the ultimate decisions on player transfers which bomb and yet escape the wrath of Daniel Levy because the buck can be passed onto the manager. Quick, someone give me this job.
If the traditional role of the manager as the final arbiter on determining the final shape of the squad is being undermined by proactive directors of football operations who wield the big stick on transfer decisions under the guise of the more complex business machinations of the soccer world, they too then should face the consequences of failure. Even more so. Roman Pavlyuchenko. Darren Bent. Luka Modric. Vedran Corluka. Heurelho Gomes. Benoit Assou Ekotto. Michael Dawson.
If Spurs lose to Hull then Comolli’s job should be on the line too. Fair is fair.
