Andre Villas-Boas is brimming with confidence and optimism as he predicts a bright future for Tottenham Hotspur after being appointed manager of the North London club.
Villas-Boas was appointed as Harry Redknapp’s successor yesterday, after weeks of speculation concerning who the new Tottenham boss would be came to an end. http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Martinez-c24468 were among the contenders for the
managerial post, but Villas-Boas has been identified as the best choice, receiving the backing and support of club chairman http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Daniel-c9879 Levy.
Villas-Boas has agreed a three-year deal with Tottenham Hotspur which ties him to the club till 2015. Villas-Boas will be hoping to make a bigger impact at Spurs and avoid the troubles he had encountered at http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 in his 8 month stint there.
It seems like the manager has been given another shot at redemption and will look to proving his worth in the English Premier League.
The Portuguese manager had experienced considerable success at Porto when he guided them to the Portuguese title, league cup and Europa League glory. He became the first Portuguese manager to go unbeaten in the Primeira Liga in one season in the 21st
century and also holds the record for most wins in Europe by a Portuguese club. Despite having failed at Chelsea, the manager displays impressive credentials and looks set to take Tottenham Hotspur to new heights.
Speaking to the club’s official website, he said:
"Tottenham Hotspur are a great club with a strong tradition and fantastic support, both at home and throughout the world. I feel privileged to become coach."
"This is one of the most exciting coaching positions in the Premier League. I have had several discussions with the chairman (Daniel Levy) and the board and I share their vision for the future progress of the club."
"This is a squad any coach would love to work with and together I believe we can bring success in the seasons ahead.”
Villas-Boas has already completed the signing of Icelandic international Gylfi Sigurdsson and is hoping to add to this list before the season starts.
Tottenham will begin their 2012/2013 Premier League campaign at the Sports Direct Arena, the home of Newcastle United.
