Another One Bites The Dust

I almost feel sorry for AVB, but then I realise he will probably walk away with another huge pay-off and should get another job pretty quickly.
I don't think anyone warmed to him at Chelsea, but this time round at Tottenham he's been likeable.
They were never going to find it easy this season without Gareth Bale who had almost single handedly got them to top 4, also losing quality back-up players like Dempsey, Huddlestone, Livermore and Caulker.
The players brought in were a collection of expensive foreign imports, and yesterday when AVB was asked if they were the players he wanted to bring in he made it sound like he went along with Baldini and Levy's choices. This could be the main reason behind the sacking today, either they were all bought on AVB's recommendation or Levy just didn't like the way he'd suddenly been blamed for the poor players brought in.
I heard yesterday that Tottenham despite the few high profile defeats had only had more points at this stage once before, so it hasn't been an absolute disaster yet.
I'm hoping West Ham can inflict more problems on Tottenham on Wednesday night :)
