Manager Ange Postecoglou

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

I'm more than prepared to give him a break.
Every single appointment since Poch was sacked , including the two ' Serial Winners ' have been fucking terrible, at the very least he's not another Chav reject.
 
O'Keefe who's pretty clued up believes we are looking to get rid of plenty this summer by any feasible option and believes if we can't find buyers for high earners like Lloris and Perisic then it's likely we just release them from their contracts (In the same way we did to Doherty)

Lloris and Perisic are on about 170k a week each. Fucking them both off ASAP would be pretty smart

So we are going to pay to rip up contracts, then pay to replace the players we pay to get rid of, shell out 70 odd million to buy Kulu + Porro AND spend big on other players this summer???

With no Europe. And no major incoming money from sales. I’m looking forward to this cash injection from ENIC!
 
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.
time will tell, youll know after 6 games if hes the right man. there was worrying signs with conte after 6 games with his selections etc. using a system that has emerson royal as your main attacking threat.

we all know we have major problems at the back with the backline and GK. bt the midfield isnt that bad, biss/bent/sarr/PEH is not too bad. apparently postecoglou plays 433 so maybe we need another CM who can pick a pass out too. but its not all doom and gloom. lets just hope hes the right man! i dont get nuno vibes at all hes a completely different character to nuno. nuno seemed fucking miserable and depressed, this bloke seems like a mans man who really wants to win.


also the miracles conte did? we was at our best when he had doherty at RWB. he then wouldnt drop emerson for him and it all fell apart, the football became absolute shit because it would all break down when emerson had it high up because hes not an attacking footballer! along with the insistence of playing son no matter how much he stank. dropped kulu when he was in white hot form and he hasnt got back to it since. the bloke made clear mistake after clear mistake, and hes a fucking cunt to boot. good riddance, can actually be optimistic about watching our games again now.

Relax mate

I'm sure some Italian club will give us 50 million for Sanchez and likewise a spanish club will bid 80 mil for Lo Celso

Stop being negative

The only way we spend anything significant is if Kane goes. Even the happiest & clappiest among us admit ENIC at best spend within our means, and our means = transfers to pay off & no Europe.

This is where ambitious/risk taking owners might go ‘shit, club needs a shot in the arm, injection of cash time’ but we won’t get that. We all know we won’t.

It’s going to be bargain basement shopping all Summer & hoping for deals/loan to buys. And not a chance do we upgrade even half the positions needed.
 
Yeah, blind faith and unbridled optimism are what's needed here.

:pocheyes:


Not crying, just very disappointed with this manager. It's up to him to prove the doubters wrong, not for us to just shut up and follow the herd.

You want differing opinions on here or is just an Ange Fan Club site now?

Oh shut the fuck up you boring barnacle.

He’s going to be the new manager. Deal with it.

If you won’t back him, then you ain’t a spurs fan. End of.

You have no idea how any other manager would work out either.

It may work out. It may not. But he’ll have my full support coz, unlike you, I’m a spurs fan.

Now shut up. You’re boring the arse off most posters here.

Aim your vitriol at Levy, not this guy. 🤡
 
Keown tries to get a one up on Jordan everytime and he fails miserably...

It's great to see
The thing about all those that try to take issue against Spurs is they are armed with the information they take directly from their club's football forums entitled "Come he to laugh at Spurs", be that Woolwich, Chav, Utd whoever. But 90% of it doesn't stand up to scrutiny. It's all a good laugh in your Woolwich bubble until you try to use that same material to a Tottenham fan's face.

That's no different to any conversation I have with this lot in a boozer or wherever. They embarrassed themselves as soon as they open their mouths.

Keown is one of the dumbest cunts on the footballing circuit though, a really nasty cunt though. I think most Spurs fans like Ian Wright, at the very least they respect him, what has he done to deserve this? He's simply not a nasty thick cunt.
 
XG crew be well happy! :contefists:

Levy has his many faults. But he’s not a complete idiot. There’s no way he thinks this current squad can finish 2nd and 3rd and make a CL final run just because of a new manager.
Not so sure.

I don't put it past Levy to shop in the bargain aisle as he usually does, but combine the noises about being skint with no Europe and with talk of a "long term project" and you have a recipe for the board asking for patience for the new manager, and Ange being asked to do 4th place with the current squad and some gaffer's tape signings
 


And now you know why. Low expectation manager whos just good enough to have an idea about coaching but not big enough that he’ll start demanding money for players


Think that's info all spurs fans knew really.

Conte was just too much for meek Levy with his constant demands for success on the pitch via big transfers.
Why it went sour with poch who also demand we buy "nice furniture, now we have the house"

Levy was always going to hire a guy who was just delighted to be here and not rock the boat, but ideally be much better than nuno .
Im slowly starting to make peace with the fact the club has no real ambition to win

I Just hope for some entertaining football next couple seasons, no humiliating results and no more having to watch Eric dier in defence

Well if we let other clubs know this… there goes any leverage.
Lloris and Perisic are on about 170k a week each. Fucking them both off ASAP would be pretty smart
Buying a player out of his contract usually means paying him the full wage. I don’t understand why we’d release perisic unless he’d agree to give back some salary… he can still cover as a winger.
 
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.

Bizarre post. Strewth. It’s called hope. Most posters just want to wish the bloke luck.

Plenty of time to lament if and when but I don't think he has signed just to boost his pension.

Fcuk sake.
