It's obviously going to take time. We need to improve the team, have some additions to really take it to another level. I'm gonna do everything I can to make sure we succeed. I'm just ready to get started.

Gilli had felt like a lame duck since the Arnault family took over the club midway through last season, but earning promotion to Ligue 1 at the first time of asking bought him a stay of execution. It didn't last long. With fears of relegation growing, Kombouare a former lame duck turned firefighter has taken his place. Just like Gilli, Kombouare too failed to fulfil the lofty ambitions of new owners; his face didn't fit.

Tottenham endured their worst top-flight finish since 1976/77 last season, coming 17th before salvaging the campaign by winning the Europa League to qualify for the Champions League. That success - which ended Tottenham's 17-year trophy drought - was not enough to spare boss Ange Postecoglou from Levy's wrath as the Australian was sacked after two turbulent seasons in charge. Levy hired Thomas Frank from Brentford to replace Postecoglou in the last significant decision of his reign.

Morecambe received funds from new owners Panjab Warriors to cover outstanding wages and liabilities, ensuring to pay all creditors by Wednesday.
