Cover for Levy? Levy once again is the cause. Not only has he appointed a staggeringly under qualified manager he is stubbornly backing him when he should have gone probably after Ipswich. A chairman that dismissed Redknapp on a whim after finishing 4th. A chairman that didnt back Poch our best manager in 35 years. Who treated Jol and Nuno shockingly. Its his mess, its always his mess but that doesnt excuse keeping a stubborn, childish, tactically inept idiot. Whats the alternative, carry on as we have been all year?

Ok in fairness to him I'm revising my gone by Christmas prediction.Speaking in his press conference after the game, Postecoglou said: “Yeah I could have. But… all these things… are totally irrelevant to me. Substitutions and all those kind of things. If you’re not competitive, it doesn’t matter what you do, you’re not going to get rewards, you don’t deserve to win.
“We didn’t deserve on our second-half performance, irrespective of subs or anything else, to get something out of the game. But I think if you do get something out of the game, you’re falsely rewarded and I don’t want to get falsely rewarded.”
Ange Postecoglou's response to why he didn't make substitutions earlier vs Brighton has left Tottenham fans baffled
Ange isn't doing himself any favours with these comments! 😑www.thespurs.news
And that’s when he lost me.
Gone by new years eve.
If the cunt realised that underpinning his gung-ho philosophy with a little bit of defensive tactics and solidity he’d be more successful overall. He refuses to see it. Even if it turned defeats into draws like you say.
This is defo in his top 3 of dumb quotes. Someone should pull together the full list.
There’s a bit of a gap between this and Newcastle. I hope we win of course, but lose and that’s Levy’s Window.
I don’t think he’s saying here that the subs would have led us to being rewarded. I think he’s making two separate points: that the whole team was playing poorly in the second half so subs wouldn’t have saved us, and we didn’t deserve anything due to the second half performance.Speaking in his press conference after the game, Postecoglou said: “Yeah I could have.

Alternative is to back Ange heavily in this January window with quality wingers such as Mitoma.
Fullback's win games in football they are a massive part of creating overloads.
What we did is called getting well and truly done.
God no, back a competent person, not this charlatan.
So having given Ange Odobert when he wanted Neto we think the miser will pay Brighton, who were booed off yesterday, whatever they want for one of their best players?
You omitted half my sentence in the quote…
You don't think a new manager might need quality wingers?
Probably - but I’d wait to see which ones they specifically want before going out and spending huge on players for Ange.
I don’t see the point in giving him whoever he wants in Jan and then sacking in the summer. We may as well take the hit this season, it’s a write off with him in charge.
I selected the key bit .. the bit where we back a dead man walking with hugely expensive footballers rather than waiting for a proper coach to arrive and then backing him with players of his choice.
Fuck the neighbours reject back to Ramsay street!

Genuinely curious about how bad it could get
No time to wait- we need quality players now.
Wrong.
But I think if you do get something out of the game, you’re falsely rewarded and I don’t want to get falsely rewarded.
Clear as day he is saying he would not have wanted the subs to have led to a positive outcome as it would have been a "false reward" in his warped mind. Mental thing for a PL manager to say.
Most other managers would try to both change the result and scrape something.
He’s saying quite clearly that he wasn’t even going to try. By all means say you didn’t deserve anything from the game after if you get anything but to not even try? Amateur.
Not agreeing with the insults but the general sentiment.
