40-50 mill defenders, you mean the ones we either overpaid for or are quite overrated?....Romero with his constant brainfarts, VDV with his dodgy hamstrings, Porro and Udogie who have no defensive awareness??

And who's instructing our wingbacks to be so high up and leave us so exposed mate?

Why is VDV's hamstrings fucked when he's never suffered them in Germany and Holland? Because he has to chase back at a million miles an hour for last ditch defending because we are so high and open.

Romero, i'll give you 🤣.

The guy can't drible to save his life, has no pace, no speed, his passing is shit, his cross is shit, he's not creative and he has zero defensive contribution. He probably scores those tap ins because defeders forget he is playing and let him run free.

Can anyone explain to me what exactly Ange got wrong today?

I thought he picked the right team. I thought bringing Werner on before Maddison was strange but werner actually did alot more than maddison so he arguably got that decision correct. He brought on Biss and Maddison at 1-2 so he did make changes but had no real impact. There was nobody else on the bench you could say should have come on.

We dominated the game, gave up 2 stupid goals, and were unlucky not to score more than just 1.

Its a pathetic result. Its been a topsy turvy season. I think some players need to take a hard look at themselves! But I haven't seen us played off the park all season so not sure how you can pin all this on the manager. Seems like lazy analysis but happy to be corrected if someone can give me a reason why this is all Ange's fault.

What he got wrong is that he failed to get the players ready for battle. They clearly thought the game would be easy but there are no easy games. The only way to win is to work hard.

Look at the effort we put in against City last week then look at the effort today. That sums it up. We sweat blood to beat City so we didn't we sweat blood against Ipswich? Whatever Ange did to prepare for this game the players clearly got the message that the game would be easy. They seemed to be completely surprised that Delap was a good player.

You're out of order mate.
Why can't you and others just accept that there are many , many passionate Spurs fans who don't share your positivity towards Ange and feel we deserve better.
Who the actual fuck are you to decide who is and isn't Spurs based on their opinion of the manager, the owners or anyone else connected to OUR football club

Porro cannot defend, Sporting rinsed us for 40 mill. Any new manager will have huge problems with Porro in a 4 at the back formation, same with Udogie who only looked decent going forward in a wing back role at Udinese.

VDV had hamstrings issues at his previous clubs

Losing to Palace and Ipswich almost makes beating Villa and Utd (away) WORSE!

We CAN do it, we HAVE got the players with ability...

But to not have the motivation or arrogance to try your absolute hardest WHOEVER the opposition it down to mentality, and those above.

If nothing else, have some fucking PRIDE in yourselves... Cos we're a fucking deluded laughing stick this evening, and everyone who doesn't hate us, and has just about stopped laughing at us now, just thinks we're fucking idiots playing for an idiotic club with a nice stadium, that, unfortunately/ironically looks like a toilet seat from above!

Which we are... TOILET!

Porro was supposed to be our genius WING BACK purchase for Conte- but Daniel did not know how to purchase him at the right time he was needed (in the summer).

Now Porro is an offensive right fullback who never had the reputation of being a great defender.

That's on Daniel buying the right player at the wrong time, not backing his manager, and then being stuck with a player now without a real position in the new manager's system, because you were too much of a cunt to properly back your manager at the right time.

Levy is an idiot.

that's how caoches & managers earn their money, getting the team ready for who they are playing, not sitting with the same way every game
