Pundit hopes new manager can copy Ange Postecoglou’s style of football at Spurs
Dwight Yorke has been discussing one of his former clubs and reckons they could have a decent season in 2024/25 thanks to their new manager, though he does admit the appointment is something of a ‘gamble.’
Chris Davies could flourish at Birmingham City
After just one year at Tottenham Hotspur, Chris Davies has moved on to take the top job at Birmingham City, with promotion from League One very much the target.
Speaking to Best Online Poker Sites, Yorke predicted a promising season ahead for the Blues, if Davies can replicate the kind of football Ange Postecoglou promotes at Spurs.
He said: “I’m happy Chris Davies has been given the opportunity at Birmingham City, because he’s a gamble.
“Ange Postecoglou obviously plays great football at Tottenham, and if Davies can bring any of that to Birmingham City, then they may have a better season than last.
But, Davies has not been a manager, only an assistant, so it’s hard to predict what will come for it.”
Will Spurs loan anyone to Birmingham this summer?
Davies will lead Birmingham in League One coming off the back of a disappointing campaign in the Championship that saw the Midlands club end up in the relegation zone.
At Spurs, Davies has been replaced by Matt Wells, who stepped up from an Assistant Coach role, to take on the Senior Assistant Coach position under Postecoglou for the coming season.
To fill that gap, Spurs will appoint Nick Montgomery and Sergio Raimundo as coaches at the club in the next week.

I have a feeling Chris Davies will do very well at Birmingham this season, and I fancy them to go straight back up to the Championship.
Hopefully, we can utilise that relationship a little bit and send some of our youngsters to Birmingham, too, as you’d imagine they would flourish with the former Spurs man.

Harry Kane set to make Tottenham ‘return’ once England’s Euro 2024 campaign ends
Harry Kane is set to return to Tottenham Hotspur this summer after England’s Euro 2024 campaign.
Currently, Kane is away with the Three Lions as they look to clinch Euro 2024 glory in Germany.
England advanced as Group C winners after Tuesday night’s 0-0 draw against Slovenia.
It is likely that Gareth Southgate’s team will take on the Netherlands in the round of 16, which will be played in Gelsenkirchen on Sunday evening.
Kane left Spurs last summer to join Bayern Munich in a deal worth a reported fee of £86.4 million.
However, he is set to make a swift return to North London as Bayern are set to take on Spurs in the Visit Malta Cup at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in August.
On Wednesday afternoon, it was confirmed that the match will be shown live on TNT Sports, who wrote on social media: “Their all-time leading scorer returns. Watch Harry Kane’s return to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on 10 August LIVE on TNT Sports and Discovery Plus UK.”

Announcing the fixture back in March, a statement from Spurs read: “Our Men’s First Team will face six-time European champions FC Bayern in the Visit Malta Cup at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Saturday 10 August, 5.30pm kick-off.
This mouth-watering curtain-raiser to the new season takes on extra significance, with the Club’s all-time leading goalscorer, Harry Kane, and long-serving defender Eric Dier having recently joined the Bundesliga champions.
“This will be a 12th meeting with Bayern in our history and only the fourth to have taken place on home soil. We memorably overcame the German giants on our way to UEFA Cup success 40 years ago and last met in the UEFA Champions League during the 2019/20 season.”
