Very spiky post match interview there. Cracks showing big time
He put himself in a corner stating he would win something this season.

The worst Spurs manager there has ever been.
Nah, he's not - that's bollox.

He was never meant for this level. Too stubborn and sensitive which is a bad trait for a manager. He belongs in the lower leagues. Scottish league is perfect for him.
I love non league football and I think he'd struggle there.

All jokes aside Doomy - every Spurs fan in the ground today were rightly happy with such a performance under such conditions. And rightly so.

None of which means the manager shouldn't be sacked - but Gray, Spence (second half), Bergvall and Austin are worthy of every bit of praise proper Spurs fans will send their way.
Total bollox - you were clearly not at the game today.

No fan should be rightly happy in the slightest right now

But I don't doubt your claim

Our fans are the worst
Nobody I saw at the ground was happy at FT.
 
For once I'm with Ange on this one. He did a great post press conference in saying it wasn't a level playing field which was true. The referee was a DISGRACE and robbed Tottenham Hotspur! And yes his team gave everything on the pitch.

I would say that he should consider leaving out Brennan Johnsonn tho.
 
I haven't said anything about you being unsatisfied with our league position are you alright?

You said that Carabao, FA and EL are mickey mouse trophies and said you'd rather go for a EL place...to qualify for a Mickey Mouse competition you think is beneath us

Take a moment before you respond...you'll realise how fucking stupid your argument is.
Have fun thinking you can win the cups while not even being able to take care of average league business. I don’t want to ruin your fantasy.
 
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.
It’s not that I don’t want to win minor cups- I do- I just really prioritize league finish and CL. I don’t think it’s realistic to hope for cup success when league form is this bad, however. I do think another manager would give us a better chance in the cups.
