Is there actually a scenario where you would also think he ain't up to it?
Not having a go, but we're at a pretty low point right now, so how much lower would you say is acceptable?

I dont care in the sense that I've seen too many managers come and go with nothing to show for it. My philosophy has always been to back whoever the manager is until they are sacked and the new guy is hired.

Right now I see a squad with no world class players. At least in the past we had a Lineker, a Klinsmann, a Ginola, a Berbatov, a Bale, a Modric, a Kane.......now I just see a bunch of young players, inexperienced in the PL players, the manager was hired despite having no PL experience, the club is going through a wage reduction phase, we are nowhere near being challengers for the top 4 or any trophies but yes we shouldn't be where we are in the league right now either

If Ange is sacked tomorrow then it won't be any surprise and yes it might temporarily bring a change of fortunes in the league but long term nothing much will change imo

Embarrassing? It's only football, we are only fans with no real say about what happens at the club. I've supported this club before Ange, before Enic, Ive seen a relegation dogfight before, 36 years as a fan and only 1 fa cup and 2 league cups in that time

Being a Spurs fan is largely misery, you are probably a new fan who has got used to being in the top 5 over the last 10 years,....where were you in the 90's and 2000's?

What a bunch of boring nonsense.

Pretty sure hooking Biss and Sarr and placing control of midfield in Bergvalls hands suggests he's not blaming the "young players" for the 1st half performance.

Problem he has is that he can't afford to hook Kulu or Son

My point is this: saying the the players are not executing the plan feels like casting too wide a net. It also overlooks the possibility that they are following his instructions—it’s just the plan itself that’s failing.
 
Whatever about the result but what about the "playing out from the back" stuff? I know it's risky but the way we were doing it tonight was fucking suicidal. It was quite literally comical and farcical. I think they got most of their chances from it!
 
Still makes me shudder that non-league Tamworth was a whisker away from beating us in the last seconds of normal time.

Not sure some have really let that one sink in properly.
