Manager Ange Postecoglou

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Ange just needs to double down now ,
Come out and tell the media they need
To relax as he always wins in his second season, it’s not even a prediction it’s a fact !

I just hope it’s the EL , don’t get me wrong I’ll still be happy with carabaro cup but would love EL , maybe he will deliver both ?

Probably one of the reasons levy is so relaxed about it all , Ange in his second season is like the postman - he always fucking delivers!!!

:ange-arms:
 
You knew he was inflexible (he has said it often enough) yet you were willing to give him another transfer window, NOW you say he can go, what has changed for you ?

I as many know I wanted him on last November 2023
What has changed ?

He didn't beat Rangers 😀

But on a serious note, I always like a manager to have a good few weeks at a team before the window opens.

Gives him a chance to fully assess the squad and decide what HE thinks he needs. So for that reason I was in favour of just keeping Ange and hope a few additions would make the difference.

However it's starting to get a bit toxic and the fact that even with a raft on injuries he's doesn't seem to have changed the tactics to compensate also to be honest I don't think players coming in will make a difference.

You'd have to respect it if he did.

Finish 16th and win the EL and it's still our best ever season in the PL era.

After last night, I'm expecting us to lose to Wolves and Levy to panic, though.
 
i said months ago he wont last the season, you said he will. i think at this point you must be right because he should of been gone ages ago! its well and truly broken, its going to get worse not better. we will be bottom 5 if he stays the season.

Looks like I said he wouldn’t last the season actually in the predictions. You must have been thinking of another wordsmith.

The thing is we have been saying for years we would take a lower half League finish if it meant we won a cup, I guess we will see next week when the transfer window opens how levy feels , if we get some reinforcements in straight away then we know levy is all in.
 
Losing your main center back is pretty much to worse thing that can happen to a squad. Go look at Liverpools win record without VVD, Arse without Saliba, City without Dias. All dropped significantly.

We are without both CBs and our keeper. Our first choice backup CB injured and replaced with an 18 year old who is not a CB.

We have continued to score plenty of goals through this patch, but simply cannot stop the rot at the back.

So, what should Ange have done against Forest? Park the bus and let them attack our makeshift defence? Or control the game, dominate the ball and score as we always do?

I'm not sure he got the game wrong. They didn't create much and their goal was a product of poor defending. We dominated the ball, but our players didn't deliver.

Kulu was too slow on the ball. Always holding onto it too long and getting tackled.

Solanke rarely looking for the goal and always with his back to goal looking to lay the ball off. He really suits being park of a strike pairing rather than a lone striker.
Your analysis is all based on 1 game. If it was a once off thered be no problem. But everyone knew what would happen yesterday. We've been found out months and months ago but nothing has changed

I still would take a lower half finish for a trophy.

Levy has turned down major January reinforcements when we have been flying at Christmas but strangely enough, I almost feel like he might be more likely to make some when we are in trouble.

Everyone knew what would happen this season before a ball had even been kicked. Only 3CBs, 69 games. We struggled last season with 41.

You didn’t need to be mystic Meg to see we’d be fucked if even one of them was crocked.
 
Ange in for the rest of the season IMO, no viable alternatives at the moment...let's see if he can turn it round, if he can't then change in the Summer.

I'm not having no Ryan Mason managing this club for the rest of the season sorry, you can do one and anyone that wants that is an impatient fool who doesn't want the best for this club.
 
What’s Guardiola and Amorin over the same period?
Got to be similar.

Is that their level too? Are we saying Pep is done?
Amorin is not up to the job? Not even getting a new manager bounce!

Totally different scenarios. City are engulfed in an off-field crisis that could see them being relegated and titles stripped away. Their only good midfielder is out for the season and they always had a poor record without him even when they were on top. They are an ageing team at the end of a cycle.

United are just shit, Amorim needs some time to change that awful squad. They have wasted hundreds of millions on shit ex-Ajax players.

Ange has been here for 18 months, stacked the squad with his signings yet we still can’t keep a clean sheet. We can’t win away from home. We can’t create chances against a stubborn defence, etc. We are getting worse and worse as time goes on. He is using injuries as his excuse but like Ten Hag that will not work forever. Everyone in football can see how badly organised this team is.

How are you pardoning Manchester fucking city and Pep and making allowances for them because they're missing one player yet pure firmly sticking it to Ange and haven't acknowledged that he's missing half his squad, what are we actually doing here?

Mason got us to a cup final in his first stint , put some respect on his name! :mourthumb:
