He should stay in Europe, close to the action, be a bit patient and try to get hold of a decent team in the beat league he can get. If he was smart, he’d employ a soccer stats guru and pinpoint half a dozen sides in the pomland or Europe that are under performing, doesn’t take many loses to get the sack over there, and he hasn’t long won a trophy 🏆.

Maybe have this season off, let the dust settle, then start looking. It’s what I thought he should have done after leaving Spurs but his ego wouldn’t let him.
I’m sure he’s financially ok to settle back, relax and play the long game.
