People who were serious about appointing Mason full time scare me.
One develops a bit of an appreciation for why Conte was setting out the team the way he was.
time is a good teacher
He's ready. Go find a solvent club with ambitions in the EFL.
So tired of seeing this guy. Nice bloke but hope he moves on instead of sticking around as assistant
I don't think that's the case at all mate.
Mason loves the club, when asked about Kane leaving at the end of the game he was unhappy and basically said the club will still be here in 40 years, with or without him.
I think he picks teams based on players who have a deeper connection to the club in hopes it will make them fight for the badge more.
I think that's the extent of it, it's foolish and naive but it's not for selfish reasons or to give his mates a run around.
None of what is happening is down to Mason, he's just another victim of poor planning at the football club.
exposed his lack of knowledge and understanding in the second half. how hes kept skipp and son on i dont know! it was clear skipp was hurting us in midfield and needed to be changed. hes taken off kulu instead of son?? wtf is that all about? the club feels very cliquey, its fucking cringe how weak players get soo many minutes! well i hope they are happy cos theyve got what they fucking deserve this year! mid table side! youve got one of the best strikers in the world up front and youre mid table??? just shows how fucking shit some of these stinkers are!
the lucas sub for sentiment is fucking weak 'spursy'. dont give a fuck if its his last game you play to win the game! not give minutes out to certain players when we are chasing a game to appease them.

If we had won all our games and he had made some great decisions during them, then why not. But we lost most of the games and he did some crazy shit during games. And the only good decisions were forced by injuries.
Meh.... Seen Conte ball play out the same and worse.
At least the first half was genuinely enjoyable.
(Back 4 with this squad was never an answer to anything though.)
People throwing around "Masons Mates" in relation to Skipp, Lucas & PEH just show it up for the bullshit it is.....
He never played with any of them.
I mean the game as a whole was very watchable from a neutral perspective. I'm thankful for that. But our defense cannot survive any pressure at all, it's no wonder Conte was trying to shut everything down.
Spurs at this moment in time are not the club to "learn" your profession.
Mason will become a half decent manager because he isnt thick and is willing to learn but its not what we need right now.

Yeh, I added comment about the back 4 to my post, but seen the exact same pattern play out under Conte even with 3CBs..... Ony we'd have sat back after Kane scored.
I'm not going to defend the way things played out under Conte this season regardless of where the culpability lies, but it must be said, had we held on in Conte's last game we'd have gone 3rd.
We've shipped 20 goals in 9 games since and sit 8th.
We’ve got much worse since sacking him.
Since Conte tore in to these players, they’ve spent every single game since proving him entirely correct about his rant.
He's also been proven correct about so much shit people were desperate to see .. a 4, Richarlison starting, kulu starting, danjuma getting a start, going a bit more offensive ... it's all been terrible. Because these players are mid-table quality apart from a great CF + Son who looks wiped.
"Mason's Mates" is a red herring, because you're right, he didn't play with Lucas. It's really just "Mason's Clueless Personnel Decisions", where his baffling decision to keep using Winks in his first go-round has been replaced by his baffling decision to keep putting Lucas on this time.
