Carter Calls Time On Swans Career.

Breaking News has today revelead Carter has left his role as Swansea City Manager, after spending his last 6 years at the South Wales club who he has supported since the age of 4 years old. Carter loves the club, and has not been affriad to make it known, however he has admitted it was tough to keep himself motivated at the club and needed a new challenge.

It's likley Carter will now accept Tottenham's contract offer, who he joins with immediate effect for 3 years. The deal will last till 2017. The swans will thank Carter for his work, and Carter has made it known he may return after he has explored other possible routes he has yet to explore. Reports also suggest, backroom staff have followed Carter out of the club, but have yet to join him at Spurs. The likes of ex-Swansea legend, Lee Trundle have left the club to follow favoured Boss, Carter.

This afternoons Sun has been reporting speculation all week, and have now published the full report on today's front page.

It comes as a shock to all involved with the club and the game itself, but nobody can judge Carter after all the hard work he's done for his beloved club and has taken them further than anyone could of imagined.
A Official Statement from the club and Carter will be released shortly.

As far as this story is concerned, I am willing to continue it under this thread, who would want that or shall I start a brand new thread? Feedback please. thanks for following!​

[Daniel Carter]

Cheers Burk, and SwineFlu I am not a mark hughes, ha however, I feel the staff members who leave my club to follow me, show enough loyalty to be brought to which ever club I go to next, just like swansea's ex-manager in real life, Paulo Sousa left to join Leicester, taking his assistant manager with him who he also had at QPR. Thanks for following!

Next up was an emotional return for Carter against his former club, and the team he supports. Swansea visited the Lane, but Carter proved to be too strong for his love team and the game ended 3-0. Carter looked depressed at the end of the game, but said times move on and he's happy to be at Tottenham although he wouldn't be too unhappy to see Swansea do well either..

Tottenham 3-0 Swansea​

The remaining two fixtures.. a victory in the second leg against Charleroi which ended 2-0 ensured Tottenham advance and a 3-2 victory against Palace ensured Spurs won all of their opening premier league fixtures.

The key player of the month was Ashley Young, who scored 4 goals in 2 games, after being on the bench for the rest, but when starting he managed to gain 4 goals to his name.

September Update

Ipswich celebrate the victory against Tottenham​

In a mixed month for Spurs, Dan Carter managed to notch up 2 wins, a draw and 2 loses. The most shocking defeat came against Ipswich Town in the League Cup 3rd Round. Spurs started the month with a draw against Hull City, at The KC Stadium, and it turned out to be a tough draw, Ashley Young scoring in 92 minutes.

Spurs then took on Liverpool At Anfield, and managed to secure a 1-0 victory with a strong defence. Alan Hutton scoring the goal on half time. A much needed victory, which took spurs up to 3rd in the table.

Next up was a league cup match against Ipswich, which ended in a shocking defeat but much deserved by Ipswich, who stole the lead on 84 minutes to win the game 2-1. Man City followed, and Tottenhams poor play from the previous match carried into this and Spurs got trounced 3-0 by City.

A mixed month for Carter's men, but will be looking to improve for the next match against Moscow.

Tottenham today celebrated a 2-0 victory in the Euro Cup against Lokomotiv Moscow. A Comfortable 2-0 victory ensured that Spurs proceed.

Tottenham will be very happy with their performance, after they dominated from start to finish, although the game got off to a slow start. Spurs finally took the lead when a corner was whipped in which met the head of Alan Hutton at the back post, to give Spurs a 1-0 lead at the break, which surly made Carter's team talk that little easier.

The second half started brightly, with Tottenham taking a staggering 15 shots with 6 of them on target. Tottenham grabbed their second when a long through ball found Peter Crouch who was bundled over in the box for a Penalty. Up stepped substitute and captain, Robbie Keane, to place the ball pinpoint in the top corner and give Spurs a much deserved victory. ​

Bore draw between Spurs & West Brom​

Spurs In Action Against WBA
Tottenham 0-0 West Brom

Tottenham and West Brom were unable to claim a victory during their premier league encounter, both cancelling each other out forcing a bore draw.

West Brom arrived at White Heart Lane, not knowing what to expect as Tottenham had started brilliantly, but they left the stadium a very happy team. Containing Spurs for most of the game, no team were unable to break eachother down and a draw seemed a fair result.

A strong Brom defence kept out the attacks from Robbie Keane & Ashley Young which left Carter bitterly disappointed at the end of the game.​

Tottenham And Chelsea In Sensational Draw

Tottenham 2-2 Chelsea
Eljero Elia (51), Peter Crouch (77) - Joe Cole (65), Michael Essien (75)
​

Neither Tottenham Or Chelsea could cause a upset this afternoon at White Heart Lane with Tottenham arguably the better side.​

Tottenham took the lead on 51 minutes, after injured Jo was substituted by Eljero Elia, who struck a 25 yard strike from the edge of the box which found the corner of Cech's net. It required a Joe Cole free-kick on the edge of the box to get a goal back, before Essien curled the ball around Gomes to put Chelsea Ahead.

It looked like a victory for Chelsea, before Crouch was brought on to form a 4-3-3 formation who struck on 77 minutes to claim a draw for Spurs.​
