Even though Tottenham finished a point behind the Champions League playoff spot, they set a new club record by finishing with 72 points.[33] This was also the highest points tally ever achieved by any club in the Premier League to consequently not finish in the top four.

On 16 December 2013, Tottenham announced that Villas-Boas had left the club "by mutual consent."[37] The dismissal, with Spurs lying seventh in the Premier League and having won all six of their Europa League group games, followed a series of disappointing domestic league results that included a 6–0 defeat away to Manchester City and culminated in a 0–5 home defeat to Liverpool.[38] Villas-Boas left the club with the highest percentage of league wins of any Tottenham manager in the club's Premier League era.[38]

His record at Spurs was pretty good, but his record at Chelsea was REALLY bad.

He was brutally undermined by Terry and the meffs there though

AVB, or failing that, Van Gaal.

It was, but to be fair it was a battle in the dressing room that he was never going to win. He tried to pit himself against Cole, Terry, Lampard and Drogba

Respected him for trying to break them up, but the board were never going to back him over the crowd favourites
 


Maybe at the end of the season but managing Marseille is a big deal and add the fact he has them near the top currently , I very much doubt he would jib them off mid-season to join Everton.
I wasn’t suggesting we go for AVB mid season. I don’t think there’s any way he’d move before next summer, but he would be worth considering as a potential replacement then.

He looks like he might very well have a good season with Marseille, but where can he go from there in the french league? He’d be pretty unlikely to be able to get them to win the league, so a second place finish, say, might be as far as he can go there.

5-0 loss to them lot. He would fit right in here. Welcome AVB.

He could manage them in the CL which is every managers (and players) ultimate aim. He would have to wait a while for that opportunity with us.
