Assuming that he’s not getting the sack. I wonder what coaches he’s looking to add.

I love the way you predict the future and you're always right, I remember when you were adamant our new boss was gonna be Brendan Rodgers last year and look what happened!
I'm afraid we will be losing some talent as long as Bryan Gil is ahead of players like Donley or Santiago. I would like a manager that would give youth opportunities, as we have so may exciting talents at our ranks, like those I mentioned. I would like we would get rid of fringe players and add some youngsters to the first team next season.
No point in having them if we are never going to use any.
Dorrington, Lankshear, Santiago and Donley all look decent
Absolutely, and we'll also have Phillips, Devine, Bergvall and Veliz coming back from loans.
Even gradual integration would be a good idea.
Not one single post that isn’t doom and gloom even during a win (even the 4-0 Villa game)?!
Not one single post about absolutely anything Spurs that isn’t doubling down in negativity?!
Spurs fan?! I smell

its coming across like hes actually trying to convince himself while hes talking. its all very strange.
anyway good to have you on here! someone who actually knows what they are talking about and can explain their opinion!
He used the term "journey" with regard to the team during a press conference. If that's not enough to fire him what is?
Just saw the picture of him pointing at his head towards the supporters, found that a bit weird tbh.
Not sure what he is trying to do with that, would rather he just get his head down and fix the problems we have rather than playing silly for the cameras and supporters.

I have my doubts and the last few months (especially the last 5 games) have been pretty galling but fuck me - some of the chat from our fans is mental, we can't be sacking the guy now and changing Manager AGAIN within one season.
Absolutely up for him playing another season with hopefully better tools on the pitch - it really does come down to who we recruit and sell this summer IMO.
Hes trying to completely change the football after the everyone defend and counter shite we have been subjected to now for years and its only been a 30 something games - new players, young squad and some declining or unsuitable players who need to go.
Conte and Mourinho knew what they were doing? Two negative, incendiary chequebook cunts who should never have been at Spurs. Short memories of how crap it has been the last 4 years lads.

He’s not asking for proof
He’s asking who you support and you appear to have swerved it???
Had a long drive today and way too much thinking about Spurs, which is odd given I could have invested the time thinking of boobs and Star Wars….anyway,
First thought. Where is the press briefing stating Ange is backed ? Where is the club messaging getting out to the likes of Gold that Ange has 100% backing ? Remember when Jose went all funny and started the Mr Levy stuff, and then Conte said “no one ever speaks”. A message from one of the suits that firmly said “Ange stays” would silence the narrative at least.
Second thought, why has no youth player come through under Ange ? Is it injury, is it timing or is it something else? Donnelly nearly, Moore nearly. But that’s about it. Another season when the academy has been almost worthless, despite the injuries.
Third. Why did he chuck Liverpool away with a dreadful set up ? Was that intentional. In three years Royle has not proved capable of being a left back / wing back or inverted left back. But he got picked there against Salah. Thats not chance, is it ? VDV inverted on the left with Dragusin surely makes more sense than Royle, and then he pulls Royle for Skipp…and so on and so forth, but even Son central and Kulusevski positioned on the right as a creative outlet, it kills the team, there has never once been any evidence that these players are good enough in that set up. It’s really odd, at the time it was odd. With hindsight it’s even worse. Gil came on for what reason ? How many times do we need to see this guy given 5 minutes of nothing ? Back to point 2, surely someone from the academy is worth 5 minutes ahead of George Harrison ?
Forth point. What exactly does Lo Celso need to do to start a game ? Now I suspect he is no answer, but the club actually indicated they convinced him to stay. And ok he’s had injuries, but surely if Maddison doesn’t play then Lo Celso should ? Again, it’s bloody odd.
The whole season has been a puzzle really. And there is no evidence anything has really changed.

But the last 6 months has been the crappiest of all.
Crap football AND Crap results .
Surely he can see Johnson is absolute pants on the left. If his going to play has to be on the right. I think his only good game on the left was v villa when he came I think.
Disagree John - it has been very tough to watch sure, but we are at least trying to get our toe on the ball, attack teams and play with everyone up the pitch which is immediately an improvement on them other two cunts IMO of course.
Even the wins with Conte and Mourinho were shite watches for the most part and we all know what happened when they couldn't sustain this ultra defensive football.
Those two 'World class' managers presided over some embarrassing defeats to far worse teams than the ones we have recently been hammered by.
I want to see him adapt of course which he doesnt seem to want to do but we lack the players to play this attacking football atm - I want to see the squad improved properly, Ange given some time with them and see what happens. Absolutely zero point in sacking him now and getting someone else in to essentially do the same job - weed out players who aren't good enough in a front foot team and try to progress as an attacking side again.
I would take this above the other two any old day of the week mate.
After they were down to ten men?
Fair post but I disagree
I would kill to have a fully committed and backed Conte back rather than this loser!
