His management at Chelsea was often criticised for the failure to include the senior — and well-loved — members of the playing squad in his matchday selections, and it has been reported that it was the senior figures who used their status in West London to have Villas-Boas sacked.

The loss was the club's worst at White Hart Lane in 16 years and left them seventh in the table - eight points behind leaders Arsenal. Villas-Boas was dismissed by Chelsea in March after just over eight months in charge at Stamford Bridge, and he was hoping to rebuild his reputation at Tottenham.

He won But Villas-Boas had come under increasing pressure in recent weeks as his side struggled to keep pace with the top four in the league. Tottenham lost to Manchester City on 24 November and, despite a draw against Manchester United and wins at Fulham and Sunderland, the defeat by Liverpool proved the final straw for the Spurs hierarchy. Villas-Boas said he would not "resign" as he was not a "quitter" after the loss to the Reds but, after being summoned to a meeting with Spurs chairman Daniel Levy, his future was taken out of his hands.

Former Tottenham playmaker and ex-England boss Glenn Hoddle has also been mentioned as a contender. Has a brilliant football mind. Bale scored 21 goals last season as Spurs finished a point behind fourth-placed Arsenal to miss out on Champions League qualification. Former Tottenham chairman Lord Sugar told BBC Radio 5 live: "The money was spent irresponsibly, in the sense that you can't just go and buy, quickly, seven players and shove them into a team.

Villas-Boas had only managed one win from his previous six home league games, with his side scoring just 15 goals in 16 top-flight matches.

Second - You can't judge a manager by 2 freak results and how much he's spent. He had to spend big to replace Bale, and those signings need time. I hope Spurs struggle after this knee-jerk decision. I can't fathom what Spurs are thinking. Complete idiocy. Even if you don't like the brand of football he's playing, 8 points off the lead and, until recently, the best defensive record in the PL, well positioned in cups and with a good chance of a CL spot too.

Should have taken a look at their opponents Rodgers had his struggles early on but the directors showed faith and have been rewarded. After finishing second last term, Marseille have been nothing short of shocking this campaign as they sit ninth in the table.

They are already out of Europe having finished bottom of their Champions League group, and trail fourth-placed Monaco by ten points. Jump directly to the content.
