Starting a season with Tim Sherwood at the helm could be extremely beneficial to Spurs. He's a title winner himself with Blackburn Rovers, not afraid to blood youngsters (which has proven to be advantageous thus far), he knows the club inside out, he plays the kind of football that Spurs traditionally excel with and he is obviously a great man manager having gotten the best out of the notoriously difficult Emmanuel Adebayor. Sherwood's winning mentality should not be underestimated. He's a fighter who knows exactly what it takes to win the competition he is leading Spurs' charge in and if you were to look at the Premier League table based only on the points earned since the date of Sherwood's appointment at White Hart Lane, Spurs would be fighting at the very top. There are, of course, rumours that Sherwood is merely an interim manager until the start of next season (with names like Louis van Gaal and Cesare Prandelli being banded around as potential replacements for the Englishman) - and that's despite him being given a two year contract with the club - but it would be better to just keep him on for the purposes of stability and, more to the point, because he's deserved it with his performances whilst in charge so far.
