Manager Ange Postecoglou

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

If you're looking for new levels of bad today, I submit two.

The wild subs and the lack of any coherent game plan or attack at all today. The manager is out of ideas and flailing. We looked totally uncompetitive against a team that was nowhere near their standard. We were not a serious club out to win a game and expecting we could do it.

His demeanor in the postgame. He now appears to be a man who expects to be sacked any day. He displays the look of someone who's reached the acceptance phase.

Why do we not have any other players good enough to get in the first team.... from the reserves ..... this has been coming since Levy would not give Poch the money to put Spurs up a gear....he had to leave as Levy would not spend his hard earned money on footballers who become millionaires ... its so sad that such a stadium will be in the Championship....we will never recover.

People said we are uncoached. But his first 10 games for us the players were totally into the game plan and running into spaces knowing exactly what to do.

If anything, I think it's the injuries planting doubts into the minds of the players that it isn't sustainable and they are losing faith in the system. Not especially our players are a bunch of pussies who get scared at every single thing.

Mate those first 10 games it worked because opponents were surprised by what we were doing. We have been 100% figured out since then. Any old rubbish can nullify us easily if they either stay compact or press us aggressively.

Levy has never, ever had a good sense of what's actually happening on the pitch. Those embarrassing moments in the Amazon series when he tried to chat to Mourinho about the football should have made that clear.

The guy is a glorified real-estate state developer. He's in this game for money, because him and Joe Lewis realised the Prem was an easy way to get rich 20 years ago. And fair play to him, it's made him a billionaire.

But that's as far as his insight on the game goes. This is the same idiot that lurched from Poch to Mourinho to Nuno. I am utterly convinced if he were on this forum he'd be one of those idiots everyone has on ignore cos their takes on the game are so terrible.

At least Sugar was a proper fan who knew good / bad football. Not a great chairman but knew when it was alright or not on the pitch.

That’s how bad things are.
 
Really, you just had to look at the actual way we played to know Ange is never going to make the grade.

Scum were still there for us to get something out of this.

They stink and were vulnerable on the break.

He just had no clue how to exploit that.

Kept kulu on stinking the place up (again).

When Moore can jink, steal a yard and put the ball across on either foot.

Guy just has no imagination.

I said it before the first leg. We’d win that and it will keep him in a job for the month until we get pumped 5 nil at Anfield. It’s negligent all round.

I thought that... But I do think that the reality of being 14th and getting closer and closer to the bottom 3 is worse and more severe as a reality for the club, then when it was just a possibility

And I don't know how much weight a half time lead in the league cup carries at this point.

He has never been a top manager....FFS I could manage Celtic and win every game.... but he cant turn down millions of dosh for just being there.... those players tonight looked scared to do something wrong.... we always buy second rate players the Bissouma wouldnt get in Gillinghams team....

And he can blame the players all he wants but the way in which we are essentially free falling points to a larger problem and I think is down to his management.

Yeah I don't disagree. I said it a while ago but we can't grind out results and it's really costing us. Losing 11 games which is more than Ipswich now is very poor.

If we picked up more points against the shite teams, you can sometimes accept defeats in the hardest games but at the moment every game we play is turning pressure more and more on Ange.

Baffling really we have only lost one game by more than one goal. Alot of the games we play are close but we seem to let teams into games so easy with very poor goals.
