Jury is still out for me.
The players are quite clearly 'playing' for Ange, so there must be something about him that's giving him time.
Levy usually bullets managers by now so maybe he sees something we don't get to see.
Usually I am 'get the manager out' but for some reason ,I'm not.
Perhaps I see that its not a team with prime Kane, dembele, Toby and Jan, Eriksen , ect ect, its a team of kids with a sprinkle of older players.
We'll see.

Delusional is sacking a manager halfway through a season who's had to deal with an abysmal injury run and a bit of bad luck and with no clear plan of who to get in.


Just look at how happy all the "Ten Hag Out" fans at Man U are now that they got their wish to get Ten Hag out.

Postecoglou isn't that far away from Mourhinos same number of points with the same amount of games when we sacked him and he had Kane to drag him through games like today.

We're in a difficult spot at the moment, but we will get through.


Do you think you'd be any happier sacking Ange than the "Ten Hag out" fans are right now?

Delusional is thinking a manager who had a good first 10 matches and has proceeded to shit the bed for 14+ months thereafter is magically going to turn back into Cinderella.

Last summer, when we signed Ange, I met a couple of Celtic fans, who assured me that we would love Ange, that he would be successful and we would see beautiful football.
When he arrived, he was a breath of fresh air and I fully bought in to his way of playing, even after the Chelsea game, and still thought he was the guy to make us successful, putting down our poor results after the first ten games were just because of injuries to key players and the team and coaching staff getting used to his way of playing.
However, I'm now starting to doubt that he is up to the job. There's no shame in being ambitious to see how far you can go in your career, but there has to be a realization when you've hit your ceiling.
Apart from a couple of headlining wins (which we received no credit by the way, it's always about how bad the opposition were!), we haven't been able to make a run of games all season.
I don't know if I'm at the 'Ange Out' stage yet, as I live in hope that Ange rams this post down my throat. Also, I have no confidence in the Board coming up with the right replacement - Wayne Rooney, anyone???

Not many positives to take from this season but at least there is this.

Here he is!

The clown that thinks there's prem level managers hiding out in Australia and Japan, it was blissful when you'd fucked off but you came back with a vengeance to disseminate your mindless drivel in support of the of insupportable nonsense you'd spouted to support your fellow clown to the extent of claiming you don't care about our position in the league.

Jog on.

Who cares about a couple mickey mouse cups? I don’t even give a shit if other teams win them- they’re a joke. CL and PL are the pinnacle of competition in this sport- it’s where the very best games are played. I personally don’t think much of EL, or the modern FA or EL cups.

The EL is the 3rd biggest trophy available to English clubs. It comes with a ticket to the CL, and itself earns £40M+ for the winning club.

It's a massively important competition, and one Ange's successor (assuming he's sacked in the next week or so) should be pointedly instructed to prioritise. We're fucked in the league, top 4 is gone. Can't see us making a run in the FA Cup, but that should be priority #2.

It's the only real reason why I'm somewhat onside with Potter if Iraola and Silva won't swap horses mid race. Give him a contract for 6 months that automatically extends to cover the next 2 seasons if he wins the EL. Properly incentivize winning what would be the most meaningful trophy Spurs have won in at least 34 years, if not 41.
