Igor Tudor\u2019s gone and ENIC are now scrambling to source a new interim manager for Tottenham having come to terms with the fact that no right-minded permanent option would come anywhere near them right now.<\/p>\n
A shortlist featuring your inevitable Knows The Club lads also threw up a surprise name<\/a> as Tottenham envelop the masses in a delightful coat of 90s nostalgia through the possibility of appointing a Premier League player-manager.<\/p>\n Ben Davies is the man being considered but which other members of this downcast group of relegation battlers could take on the role?<\/p>\n We\u2019ve ranked the whole squad by player-manager merit, from least to most.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n 28) Souza<\/p>\n We doubt his English lessons will feature the requisite swears for him to scream from the touchline as Xavi Simons cedes possession for the 427th time.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n 27) Randal Kolo Muani<\/p>\n Unlikely to be hugely invested during what will surely be his final two months at Tottenham.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n 26) Wilson Odobert<\/p>\n Could he regret his early season vow to \u201ctake on more responsibility\u201d. No.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n 25) Xavi Simons<\/p>\n Almost certainly wants Tottenham to get relegated so he can leave with his reputation still somewhat in tact.<\/p>\n READ MORE: Tottenham move on from latest f***ing mess \u2013 so what\u2019s the next f***ing mess?<\/a><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n 24) Mathys Tel<\/p>\n \u201cI don\u2019t wanna be here, you don\u2019t wanna be here, but we\u2019re stuck here and I don\u2019t want a 50 per cent wage cut to play in the Championship next season.\u201d It could work.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n 23) Radu Dragusin<\/p>\n Can\u2019t be having a Premier League manager sporting a topknot.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n 22) Destiny Udogie<\/p>\n Not his fate.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n 21) Yves Bissouma<\/p>\n He\u2019s got plenty of experience both at Spurs and in the Premier League in general but his contract\u2019s up at the end of the season and he\u2019s wanted out for a while<\/a>.<\/p>\n READ MORE: Who will be Spurs manager next season? Top target clear as Tudor exit confirmed<\/a><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n 20) Mohamed Kudus<\/p>\n We\u2019re not sure his reasonable insistence that all teammates just give him the ball when he returns from injury will go down all that well with the majority.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n 19) Guglielmo Vicario<\/p>\n Already well-versed in the boos that are sure to come his way at half-time vs Sunderland in his first game in charge. The Premier League social media team would have an absolute field day<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n 18) Dejan Kulusevski<\/p>\n He\u2019s had enough time to ponder the problems at Spurs from the sidelines and will presumably have come to the conclusion \u2013 along with the rest of us \u2013 that his absence is a big factor in their struggles. It might not be quite enough just to rush himself back from injury.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n 17) Richarlison<\/p>\n We look forward to him removing his tie and unbuttoning his shirt in celebration of an offside goal.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n 16) Pedro Porro<\/p>\n \u2018Smashes\u2019 sh*t<\/a> and not averse to giving anyone a kicking in interviews, though Tudor has shown that\u2019s perhaps not the best route to go down with these Spurs softies.<\/p>\n Unlikely to be a favourite among the Tottenham hierarchy having described their project as a \u2018disaster\u2019<\/a>, but we would be fascinated to see just how much fan-geeing he does from the touchline given his penchant for arm-waving on the pitch when Spurs win an attacking throw-in.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n 15) Lucas Bergvall<\/p>\n You will struggle to find a scouting report of Bergvall which doesn\u2019t include some reference to his high football IQ. It\u2019s a overarching term to cover all manner of football things beyond the basics and we assume sets him up beautifully to manage a Premier League football team at the age of 20.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n 14) Brandon Austin<\/p>\n Feels like he should be a contender purely on the basis of third goalkeepers doing sod all and thus having plenty of time to contemplate tactics and the like. But third goalkeepers are also clearly very comfortable getting paid quite a lot \u2013 \u00a315k per week in Austin\u2019s case \u2013 for doing very little.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n 13) Dominic Solanke<\/p>\n Richarlison wouldn\u2019t get a look in and what better way to secure a place on Thomas Tuchel\u2019s England plane than playing every minute, receiving no service and therefore scoring no goals for Tottenham?<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n 12) Antonin Kinsky<\/p>\n
