Good luck at your next club Ange but your time here is done
I don't think I've ever felt less optimistic about this club. Under Mou and Conte it got fucking dire but I never felt like we were about to get done over by a team bottom of the table.
Okay, but here you blame Postecoglu. But it's another person's fault (Lange, Levy or who wasted crazy money for bad signings). Ange is a top coach.
If the players wanted him gone they'd have lost tonight.
We're just going through that long drawn out death rattle that you get when you know a manager is toast. The performances are brutal. Southampton will fancy it but i reckon it will be after Liverpool or Forest.

LETS GET RANGERS MANAGER
By what measure? Delusional.
I’m starting to really hate watching this team. Choice of pass, timing, dribbling down a blind alley when a good pass is on, passing back when they have space behind them to turn. Miss placing simple passes. Getting brushed off the ball because you’re scared of contact. Hanging a leg in a tackle etc. How much of that is down to the manager I don’t know but it is very frustrating to watch.
The passing is fucking abysmal fffffuck me
POST OF THE THREAD!LETS GET RANGERS MANAGER
I'd never heard of him before us and he'll go back to obscurity before Xmas.
Thank fuck.
This is a legit post?
Definitely the weirdest spurs team I can think of. We make the most basic errors and never seem 100 percent in control for even 5 minutes. And yet at the same time they all love Ange and each other (no matter how bad the previous result) and suddenly it gels into flashes of brilliance (like Kulu's goal tonight).
It's hard to know what to make if it because its all unchartered. I'm on the fence until I figure out what the fuck is happening.

Mate they may not have succeeded but they absolutely did their best to lose.
Typical of our squad really
Rangers battered us and had two gilt edged chances at the end.
He's trying the impossible task of playing -proactive- football without any sort of wing action. Not just winger action, but any sort of threat created from either flank of the pitch. What he probably expects is crafty wingers who are great 1v1 threats taking their man to byline and delivering cutbacks to players rushing inside the box. What he gets is totally incapable wingers delivering low percentage generic low/whipped crosses against set defenses because they can't get anywhere close to byline to deliver an actual cutback. It's not playing the percentages or whatnot. It's just incapability. Barring a total overhaul of wingers in Jan, -won't happen-, he needs to seriously consider a drastic change in team shape. 3 at the back? 4-4-2 diamond? Not sure. But he's fighting a losing battle right now, with little time left.
Do I pity him? Not really. Most likely it's Levy and the board pulling the strings in the market. I doubt any manager managing a club of this magnitude would actually fancy the likes of Johnson and Werner as his regular players. But that doesn't mean he's being victimized by Levy in usual fashion, because a manager of his reputation has no business being here in the first place. Him not having any major input in transfer decisions is the direct result of him having a Championship level resume. And he knows this. That's why he kept talking about how happy he was with the summer window. He may come clean when he's no longer here, but until then he'll keep ingratiating himself with Levy in front of the press. Otherwise he'll be out of the door the next day, and he knows this as well.
