Manager Ange Postecoglou

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Just seen his presser, snapping at people asking legitimate questions about the issues at set pieces and just looks like he doesn't want to be here, I think he's lost the will and given up since that City game.

Get rid now he's done

Gooner scum are of course cunts but Arteta is milesssssss ahead of our manger it's not even funny.

At the game he was legit telling his players to hold and not be fooled by attempting to press in non threatening areas. He was shouting at his players to hold...then shouting to press when he sensed it was appropriate to do so.

He seems far more capable than Ange unfortunately.

Still a weapons grade bell end though!
 
People still pointing the finger at the wrong person

It’s always the mangers fault isn’t it? Funny that, it’s been the answer for 25 years

You could give Guardiola this squad and he’d struggle

We need to realise who the real villains are here

It can be more than one thing - it's not a binary.

Ange has (sorry for the cliche) been well and truly found out, it's a matter of if not when.

This is fundamentally a Levy/ENIC problem...ANY manager would struggle with baldy at the helm and his ways.

But can we get someone in better than Ange? I suspect it's possible.

When the manager is a yes man for the board and talks about how happy he is with the squad then he doesn't get much sympathy from me.

There are definitely issues with the squad but when you see what the likes of Villa are doing then it's obvious a better manager gets more out of this group.

The issue is Levy. But this bloke is also clueless and clearly doesn't want to be here since that City game, he's just waiting for his pay out.

Snaps at a reporter and says we have to learn on set pieces but clearly we don't learn a damned thing.

The truth is he has never done anything of note in any decent standard of football.

So his prickly reactions come across more like his own realisations that he's been found out at this level as opposed to actual conviction in what he's doing. It's a defence mechanism.

Of course he will keep trotting out the party lines and milk this for as long as he can because he certainly isn't moving onto a better contract than he has now.

That doesn't mean he doesn't have belief and conviction, though.

We were talking about belief and conviction. They are all like discipline, it's not about what you do when the sun is shining and everything works perfectly. It's what you do and think when nobody is watching or when you don't feel like it.

It's got nothing to do with party lines.

Found out is a myth. You execute your plan better than the other team, you win. If you don't execute the plan, you probably don't get results.

Right now our forwards aren't executing the most important part of the plan. Ange needs to fix that. It looks like it's not going to be an easy fox either.

Changing manager wouldn't be an easy fix either. It might give some fans a junky hit of endorphins and false hope but then issues would arise and those would take time to fix too.

oh wow you're actually a next level of deluded (although I knew that when you labelled Romero the best centre back in the world). It's actually quite scary but yeh crack on.

Cool story bro.

Diet Pep is a master tactician. If it makes you feel better, he's probably been a head coach long enough to say that he's a good coach but he's done nothing that he didn't learn from Moyes or Pep.

Potentially 3 at the back, wing backs play to Porro and Udogies strengths, Son off Solanke, not as a bloody ineffective winger. Might not work but something different. Doing the same thing over and over certainly isnt working.

do think 3 at the back might be the way to go with what we have. sons never working in any setup that wants to have a lot of the ball though, teams get back into shape now and once tht happens hes useless. we need ball players who have football intelligence not runners. the sons and johnsons need to be impact subs when the games stretched.

dont think thats great but it would be far better than any system that has son and johnson as your wide players, getting the ball and going backwards because they dont know how to play against a side settled in. you need some height in your side and the players with height to be able to defend and attack set pieces.

He hasn’t given up, he’s just stubborn and a sore loser same as every other manager.

To make such a big noise about playing attacking football and be so toothless on the pitch makes him look really stupid sometimes. Especially when you keep losing games to such terrible goals.

Probably he’s pissed off at getting none of the players he wanted in the summer. Gallagher, Eze, Neto. He got none of them. As usual the manager gets fucked over.
