Manager Ange Postecoglou

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

I'd move Kulu into the middle with Porro outside him. Bentancur and Bissouma to make up the rest of the midfield 3. Press as a unit without the ball, then give Kulu free reign to roam when we have it. Find pockets of space, pick passes. I have a feeling he'd flourish in the role. Intelligence matters more than pace there.
He’ll play with a sitting midfielder and the other two will get forward to create,make runs into the box and get goals. I think we’ll get Maddison and hopefully another who is quite similar. Bissouma the sitter with Maddison,bentancur and another fighting it out for two spots. Maddison will be perfect for the way Ange plays.
 
I quite like what I’ve seen of Ange as a person.

But this job is a poisoned chalice, whether he can do better than any managers we’ve had recently I’m not sure. He’s a decent guy though. That’s a start anyway.
 
Fans are a huge part of the problem, because they don't push back enough against Levy's abuse and keep shelling out into his con-machine, whatever fuckshit he pulls.

Got nothing against Posta, personally.

Just another lamb to the slaughter for Butcher Baldy, unfortunately.

He could be a fluke signing and take off, here (I doubt).

The issue is Levy's stewardship and methodology around the club's footballing side.

He's a fucking cunt and he's not getting another penny from me.
So you would have served up this whine-fest whoever they hired?

Ndombele is probably getting his hopes up.

Someone at the club with a bigger appetite than him. They’re bound to get on like a house on fire at the canteen.
Ndombele won't make it near the bench, let alone the first team, unless he's completely changed. Let's be honest here, from what we know of Ndombele, the only reason he'd run through a wall for Postecoglou is if he put a burger behind it.

Actually, he's more likely to saunter around the wall and eat a cold burger.

Imagine if Ange did manage to motivate Ndombele though. If he managed that, I would fully expect;

a) He walks on water,
b) He can turn Water into Wine,
c) He can cure all illnesses,
d) He can raise the dead.

Even then, I'd still be dubious about him winning the PL with Spurs.

I mean there's miracles and then there's miracles ...
 
Celtic fan here, if you want to see an example of anges style of play watch the 1st 60 minutes of the Celtic/Real game from last season. Now imagine that football but with better players. In for a treat

I'm struggling to understand the optimism some have on here regarding Ange. Is it just relief that we've finally appointed someone? That it's not Brendan Rodgers?!

Maybe I'll be proven wrong but I think he's way out of his depth, this is the PL not some Mickey Mouse league in Scotland or Australia. I hope so I really do, glad I didn't renew though and Spurs won't be getting a single penny out of me whilst Levy and ENIC remain in charge.

We're one of the richest clubs in the world, wouldn't think it though.

Battered housewife syndrome. Been hurt and let down over and over, but immediately accept the apology and tries to make out things will be different.

Odd number of people convinced themselves that fucking Nono was gonna succeed even before we started the season.
Same thing happening again.
 
the league form got worse but what do you expect? we got ryan mason in using conte's system lol. a complete rookie who looks scared of his own shadow using someone elses ideas? doesnt sound like a recipe for success to me.

would have been better off with harry redknapp and 442 ffs lol
I don't think Postecoglou will get those players performing anywhere near the miracles Conte did.
I want to be wrong. I do. But I can't see anything other than him failing, and quickly.
