Manager Ange Postecoglou

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Normally I'd say I feel for Ange in this situation as he's a nice guy...
But I don't actually think he IS a particularly nice guy!

Personally, I think he lost his feel for the club/fans before that Man City game at the end of last season...

His whole demeanour changed, and has been defeatist ever since!

He's just going through the motions now
.. before he goes through the door!!
what do you think happened at that point? Do you think everywhere else, he has managed to convince the fans early on and we're just too jaded and cynical?

We've seen this time and again, it's so tiring. I've barely been on the forum this year as I couldn't face it, and the thought of going to a game and renewing my ST isn't something that appeals. 43 years as a fan, it can get you down at times, stepping back a little feels like a sensible idea...
 
He's bigging up the late comeback,.

He cannot really believe that. The bloke is not stupid. And you cannot fail to see through how fake that late comeback was if you've watched football for more than 6 months.
Of course he is.

He’s an arrogant prick that only thinks about himself and his ‘brand’. When he says ‘it’s who we are’, he’s saying ‘it’s who I am’.

Never known our fanbase to be so duped by such an obvious fraud.
 
How can things conceivably get any worse ?

We are losing every week , no matter the opposition

What could mason actually do that's worse ?

Let me turn the question round to you.

Forget Ange for a sec, what faith do you have in Ryan Mason in which you think he'll be able to turn this shambles around? Answer without mentioning Ange...

I'd love to hear this...
 
I’ll happily hold my hands up and say I thought 3-5-2 or at least 3 at the back with wingbacks maybe the best use of the players.

But I meant like fully fit squad, not square legs in round holes lol. 3at the back should have given us defensive solidity where playing the attacking football. Today they forgot to attack until we’d revered to a back 4.
This wasn't a 3-5-2. We were still playing his stupid 'inverted fullback' shit. In possession Archie was often up in the 10. It was clear the players had no idea where they should be.

The number of people who says "but Mason" shrinks every week.

Like what are we sacrificing from all this glorious failure by going to Mason?

He wouldn't be ideal and Levy really should have his fucking dumbass director of football keeping tabs on managers everywhere for this eventuality but it's not like Ange is doing anything special that Mason can't at this point.
 
I love attacking football but I'd relish one game now where we're not wide fucking open at the back. Or a game where one ball doesn't leave the opposition teams striker completely in on goal. Or a few games where we don't have double figures in player numbers injured.

We'll lose the next 5 under Ange

What's mason gonna do , somehow lose 6 out of 5?
