Manager Ange Postecoglou

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

The way he used the back 3 in the first half was the most insane, amateur shit I’ve ever seen at this level. Having Archie as the RCB but still telling him to go charging 40 yards up the pitch while Porro goes even higher, I’ve never seen anything that stupid from a professional manager. We basically vacated the entire right side of the pitch for 45 minutes.

Shows that Ange is totally out of his depth and very immature as a manager despite his age. Tried to be clever but just made himself look completely stupid. Watching that shite was genuinely frightening, that he thought it could possibly be effective is terrifying. He may be the only manager in the world who doesn’t mind having 30 yard gaps between the lines of his team. Everyone knows that to defend you need to be compact, whether you are playing high or low doesn’t matter.

He’s left it to others (Lange and Munn) but it’s like when I leave the tidying to the kids…sometimes you have to deal with it yourself.
 
Poor today from the manager and to be quite frank I'm getting sick of the set ups and lack of results.

I could handle it if we were sitting in mid table whilst being on a decent cup run which at one point it was looking like that could have happened but we are in free fall. You cannot be turning up to EVERTON and letting them be 3 goals up at half time. Really embarrassing on more levels than one.

That back 3 was chaotic, I reckon they trained that for about 15mins in the warm up and then thought it would work in match.

I've defended Ange to the hill and do like his approach, general demeanour however this is very poor and sadly I don't think he will turn it around. The players in that first half looked like they couldn't care less, it was only the 2nd where their professional pride comes into it where they made more of a game of it.

and who will be our manager? It won’t be Terzic, Areola, Franke for starters.

No reason the unemployed and largely untested Terzic doesn't take it if offered it.

Areola is another word for nipple. A nipple can't coach a football team, no. Ange is a bit of a tit, and he's proving that.
The Bournemouth coach, that's Iraola. Reckon he would come in the summer though.

Franke is a woman's name I think. Like Frake Potenta. She's not a football coach, but she's not a bad actress so she might do a better job pretending to be a coach than Ange.
Frank, as in Thomas Frank is probably another summer one.

Also worth ruling out silver too. Silver is a worthless metal and pretty boring colour for cars that boring people pick.
Silva, though, he has something about him. And has a record of walking away for a "bigger" job.



*I hope you take that all as nothing more than jokes for shits n giggles*

100%. I honestly watched the game and didn't even realise we played a back three and was confused when the pundits said that's what we were playing. I thought/assumed Gray was just playing as the 6 as he kept going forward. Have quickly rewatched the first-half to see the set up and it was a complete mess like you said.

Spoke with some of my old coaching pals. One of them said to me that Ange reminds him of us two when we were 20 ish and getting to games having not slept a minute and partied hard. We used to give ourselves the most stupid challenges & dares just for the substance-induced fun of it...and yeah far more often than not it backfired spectacularly. Well he said that's what watching Spurs under Ange feels like, except the big fella ain't young, hasn't swallowed whatever some fit bird gave him the previous night in the hope of shagging her, and he's not being a silly cunt (on purpose).

Spot on, he's a fucking joke. He is a fucking fraud man, it is actually insane that he was ever appointed but to then double down on it by the board and keep backing him is mental.

If the only reason they haven't sacked him yet is the injuries, we are fucked. Because the injury list is actually getting worse, and there is no way even with VDV and Romero in the side, we are winning games consistently.

Ange could be here another two seasons and we will still be talking about injuries.
