If Levy could just pick a good manager we'd be doing a lot better. His last four appointments have been total failures. He hasn't gotten it right since Poch.
Poch appointment is like a millennium occurrence. Everything just clicks. He still doesn't occur to me he's a great coach. The shifting of stadium, fortunate peaking of Kane, Dele, Son and Eriksen plus the best pairing of Belgium CBs together with genius Dembele, it was just fairy tale. It won't happen again until Levy is gone.

We've had Conte and Mourhino

We can't keep blaming the manager

Conte is sitting 1st in the Italian League right now with Napoli.


Neither if then could fix it so blaming Ange is a bit much really.
 
I’ve come to the conclusion that our players treat every game like a slightly competitive exhibition game.

There’s zero ambition in the club. It’s dead. A soulless corporate bowl that exists to maintain PL revenues. That’s it.

Will never change until ENIC and Levy leave.

It’s not the money. It’s the culture and expectation that ENIC has created.
They get paid regardless , there is no real pressure to win anything here - it comes from the top down , credit to Ange that he is actually trying to change that here but although I’m not Ange out I’m seriously worried!
And the only reason I’m not Ange out is because it will just he more of the same whoever we get in , what’s the fucking point , we could hire prime Pep and still win fuck all! I guess at least now we get a few good results each season
 
Can’t dress that up in any other way than being piss poor.

I accept the premise of giving the manager time to improve the playing style, play to a new system, getting whole team performances in place etc. But after a season and a bit, I would at least have expected to see some of the mental toughness, leadership qualities, responsibility taking and so on start to emerge on a regular and more consistent basis. Particularly, as these qualities have been said by Ange to be essential for success. Yet we remain on this weekly yo-yo of up one week, down the next and really, not to have progressed in any meaningful way on improved mentality and approaching every game with the same level of importance. Very frustrating and really needs addressing now.
 
Worst thing about it was you could see Ipswich are awful and were waiting to fold like a deck chair but we're so impotent they manged to hold out.
Ipswich are out matched in terms of talent, but the coach isn't bad. And Liam Diap is the sort who seems to always be around the ball and adds value. He's not going to be a huge star, but he would be useful on most teams. None of that negates the idea that Spurs should have had an easy go of it today.
 
Levy needs to go. Keeps hiring turkeys. Dictatorship. Sell up and get someone more ambitious in. Ego too big. Should never have fired poch. Out of touch board.
They can all fuck off... And he can definitely take that lispy German Chelsea cunt with him!

let's win Carabao Cup this season!
We might have to start supporting Woolwich to achieve that wish!
Arse-nal... Arse-nal
.... ARSE-NAL!
nope, can't do it.
Feels weird!

Another international break ruined. This one hurts even more than the brighton comeback.

Arrogance from everyone involved in the club is a big problem. Nobody (including our home crowd) seems to be pumped for this game. Everyone thought we'd just show up and win! Ipswich wanted it more. Referee allowed them play the game on their slow terms with alot of stoppages so we never get into flow. Usually that only happens to us away from home, but our crowd were so quiet that the ref didn't let them game flow at all and entertained all their time waisting.

Terrible result. Hard to see where we go from here now. We'll probably go and do woolwish a favour now in 2 weeks and beat Man city.... None of it matters anymore, you can't trust us to beat anyone.
We’re a cursed club chaps, we can blame Ange all we want but we could have Pep as manager and Ancelotti as his assistant and we’d still get results like this

It’s just what it is being a fan of this club
Cursed... Positive... Negative... Confidence... Inferiority complex... Arrogance... Superiority... Complacency...
We've done it all, and it's STILL got us nowhere!

I genuinely don't know what club I support any more.
45+ years of misguided loyalty.
For what?
A few occasional weekends of happiness? In return for a multitude weekends of feeling like this?
Like we're nowhere, like we're NO ONE?
I'm genuinely lost at this.
They can all fuck off right now!
 
All the talk about winning 5-0 here and then being third during the international break. You'd swear most fans haven't a clue what supporting spurs even means! ALWAYS ASSUME THE WORST CASE SCENARIO
 
Absolutely pathetic performance and result, Ange has to go. Criminal losing at home to Ipswich
Our worst appointment for decades.

And God knows I hate Jose like nobody else.

Nuno never got a chance, he'd have done so much better. Ten times the manager Ange is or will ever be. Ange wouldn't have got Wolves in the top 10 and he sure as heck wouldn't have Forest in the top 3.
