Management Ange Postecoglou

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

anyone still behind this guy is an embarrassment, we looked no better than wolves AT HOME.
Wolves have a better team than us though?? Have a better GK by far... had more experienced defence out there. Cunha been one of the players of the season and would walk into our team. We've been linked with Gomes in midfield who many on here have asked for before. Chan in better form than Son... So why would it? Asking for the manager to be changed at this point means less chance of getting the players we need in this January so why would you want that?
 
Think we're only left with contrarians and the permanently bewildered fighting for him now.

I’m still not 100% Ange out atm but I’m as close as I’ve ever been, but definitely not fighting for him either.

It’s not to be a contrarian or bewilderment, I’m just not sure what changes suddenly with him gone and have been sick and tired of the merry go round.

There is nobody readily available of any real promise at the moment to replace him. Even if there was the team is fucking decimated and dead on their feet. And even if that weren’t the case we have the root cause problem of Levy who is going to continue to royally fuck it all up anyways.

Feels like a no win situation and draining any feeling at all I have for this club.

They really don’t have a better team than us.
 
Balanced post, he was much more pragmatic today which people have been asking for but you're right he should have did this more often and quite a while ago!

Still at least he listened to Ryan Mason today and stopped inverting the full backs and played less offensively...
Well, he’s just getting a head start on taking orders from our future manager, mate—makes sense to start early, right? 😂

But jokes aside, you’re spot on. If he’d shown this kind of pragmatism earlier, we might be sitting here with a few more draws or even a win or two, and the conversation about his future would feel a lot less grim.

That said, it’s all hypothetical—maybe things would’ve gone the exact same way regardless. Hard to say for sure.

What I do know, though, is that we probably wouldn’t be dealing with half the injuries we’ve got right now, which for me is the biggest issue when we are talking about his persistence with his style of play.
 
This fuck has pretty much decimated the squad and I want him gone, but on the other hand, I honestly feel sorry for who comes in after to try and fix this.

Ange is that guest that comes around for Xmas and then fucking clogs the toilet with their volatile diarrhoea and then fucks off.
 
Nobody really wants to start again but, this cannot continue to carry on.
No manager under levy can expect to achieve much, but i think we was entitled to expect better than this.
why does everyone think its always starting again'? what has this fat cunt done? what work is there to undo? a competent football person comes in and makes a huge difference straight away, its not going to be some long miserable journey.
 
Hi - I had to re-activate my account to comment on this!

I think it's probably time for him to go - tbh, it's been that since the end of last season but I'm assuming there's no-one lined up or in mind (although there should be). It will just be to stop yet another manager payout - probably similar results to what Mason would manage so may as well keep him at the moment. I think that we'll know how much of a 'dead-man-walking' he is by January activity. If we take cheap loans or buy and loan back, then he's definitely gone; if we do little or no business, he's gone; if we get one or two reasonable squad players, then he's still got Levy's backing.

Having said that, I also wouldn't be surprised if he's sacked before the New Year as he can't even say: 'now you're ahead, hold the ball for a bit'.

FFS.

COYS.

I don't know who it would be, but both Redknapp and BMJ took over squads and improved them just by getting them to run around a bit more...

thats the hilarious thing. has a manager ever done this bad and left the squad in absolute pieces on his way out too? its fucking comical how bad this buffoon is
 
I think we saw a couple times last season him try and "shut up shop". A back 5 at goodison being a big one that screwed us late on. Perhaps that's why he doubled down even further these last few months.

But ultimately, I think whether or not he won't "change his philosophy" is the small print for me. For me it's more that some coaches are cut out for the top top level. Most aren't.
I've always found it really frustrating that he can clearly allow some decent attacking football but, once we're ahead, doesn't seem interested in just slowing it all down. I think Ange should coach first half and then Conte flown in for the 2nd half.
 
He can complain about injuries but the situation with hamstrings is a freakshow and it’s down to him. He said that these types of injuries are “expected” because of his methods but I’ve never seen anything like this in the history of football.

I’d sack him just to stop the injuries, the man is jeopardising the careers of these players. Son, Odobert, VDV, Romero, Udogie, Davies, Richarlison. That’s 7 players who have had a hamstring injury and all of them got re-injured within days of returning to action with 6 of them being a hamstring AGAIN.

We had horrendous issues with hamstrings last season too, he obviously doesn’t understand how to adapt his methods to suit the intensity level of the PL.
 
if he gets sacked i want the record to show that he didn't get to execute his plan properly with a normal amount of luck

both seasons had been derailed by injury

the ange in the alternate universe 8304B, the one where the chelsea game went to plan last year and ended 3-1, well that ange's tottenham rides the wave for longer, mounts a semi serious title challenge and finishes a closer 3rd

that ange would have been backed stronger with champions league power
