Manager Ange Postecoglou

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports


Add Udogie to that list, it makes 6.

So I was wrong about 7, my apologies lol.

Romero was initially 7 but he has a different injury now as ILSpur ILSpur pointed out.
Romero was never hamstring, it was his quad.

That site is wrong because Richy is/was quad as well.

Hamstrings
VDV
Davies
Odobert
Maybe Udogie today.
 
We've tried pragmatic managers. Mourinho, Conte, Nuno.

Areta looked shit many times in his early years with Woolwich. Klopp was criticised a lot for Liverpool's inconsistency. They both improved only when they signed better players.

Ange has the right vision for the team and club, one that's aligned with Spurs traditions. He has won in multiple countries and proven his methods can work. But we need a Chairman who is sincere in wanting to win, and willing to do what that takes.
But what indication do we have beyond nice warm feelings, that there has actually been good work being done.

It gets to a point where we need more than just "wouldn't it be lovely if it was to work out and who knows it could happen"

The point comes when you have to make decisions and judge people's work based on what's real. And what's real, is the last 9 months of results.


Edit: I'm with you on the ceiling that the chairman and Enic put on us.. But we're all in agreement on that i think bar a few.

Beyond parody at this point
 
Utter nonsense. Worst PPG for 13 straight months since Ramos. Ange had 2 good months at first. He's had 13 shit months since.

He's the latter, not the former.

ange has had 3.5 bad months

august, sep, oct 2023, very good
dec 2023 good
jan 2024 to feb 2024 ok-good
mar 2024 good

nov 2023 bad, mid apr to mid may 2024 bad, this month bad

the rest is medium or off season

don't get crazy

Arteta is a loser.
 
Hercules who thinks Terzic, the manager who recently took Dortmund to the Champions League final would be out of his depth at Spurs 🤣
The story goes that Terzic was criticised for being tactically limited in Germany

That’s not to say he did a bad job but if people want Ange replaced because “tactics” (whatever the fuck they think that means) if anything Terzic’s “success” just proves how far you can get without being tactically astute but getting buy in from a squad that fits together like Poch, works.

But Terzic didn’t win CL and bottled it in the Bundesliga, isn’t that what we are meant to be getting away from?

Compared to Ange Postecoglou Edin Terzic is Rinus Michael's, Arigo Sacchi and Alex Ferguson combine.

Not being funny Anges coaching mentor is Ferenc Puskas a man who was literally playing when they used the W formation and who literallysays 'I dont belive in defence' this crap we are watching did not appear in a vacum. The biggest job the man had was Panathiniakos, by way of Colo colo, and Vancouvor Royals. Edin Terzic for contrast; Jurgen Klopp.

When many months ago I started saying I feared Ange was out of his depth. I had really looked into his coaching history. There's nothing of any comfort their guys. His employment was massive negligence in the first place. Daniel Levy.

I sometimes wonder if some Spurs fans I see around, are more invested in what would be a great climax to Big Ange the Musical than the wellbeing of the team.

I'm not gonna say they're not Spurs fans or anything like that. I just think that they've bought into something so much that it's hard for them to leave.
