Vincent Kompany is the ideal candidate for the Spurs job - but if you are a young manager, why would you take it?
Only if you can rid the club of the drift, the lack of identity, and get time as a new coach to build. What Kompany has done at Burnley in just one season is amazing. He’s got them playing attractive football, he’s identified the Belgian market as one of the most physical leagues and got players in from there. Recruitment was good, he had a method and a plan.
He could walk into that Spurs dressing room having won it all, and command respect. Unsurprisingly, Kompany was on Chelsea’s wanted list but doesn’t appear to be heading there.
