Those who support this decision will indicate the shocking Premier League Finish (17th) and surprising number of defeats (22) Tottenham who suffered last season.
They will point to two years of defending Kamikaze and the injuries that have taken place or not as a result of the tactics of Ange Postecoglou.
And they will point to the House of the Leagester and Ippswich's house and need extra time to see Non League Tamworth in the FA Cup.
All honestly, all valid.
But that is not all important because I was in Bilbao. I was with the San Mames with lifelong friends to see Tottenham do something that we thought they might never do again.
After 17 long years, they won a trophy without the longest post-war drought of the club.
The scenes on full -time and the memories of that magical night will stay with me the way they want every other fan. It was all thanks to Postecoglou. Defeating him 16 days after the biggest night of the club in decades feels wrong.
He did what Mauricio Pochettino, Jose Mourinho and Antonio Conte could not do and gave a long -term fan base at a time when they will always cherish.
Isn't that what football is all about? Well, it doesn't seem to be done in Tottenham. Trophies? Which she needs if you can earn a lot of money by simply ending in a respectable position in the Premier League.
When asked last season for his top three moments in his 24 years that was in charge, Daniel Levy did not say the 2008 League Cup, the only trophy that the club had won up to that moment.
And now traces the dice are rolling on another new manager – the 12th of the Levy era. A dark cloud now hangs over the joy, emotion and pride in winning a big trophy.
Thomas Frank, or those who are crazy enough to want a job where Champions League football is apparently demanded with a Europa League budget, is confronted with a tough task to unite a divided fan base.
But I will always believe that Postecoglou earned another crack. He deserved the chance to see if season three was really better than season two. And he deserved better from a club trying to act with the class, but it rarely does it.
