He won the worst Spurs season in PL history. That’s not a joke btw.

Postecoglou has been backed to a large extent, for a manager only 20 months into a role. I mean take a proper look.

Financially it's clear. Arguments about the quality of the players is a different matter,but managers must ad valorem or what is their point?

The next manager, who at this rate may arrive just before the next sighting of Halley's comet will presumably know the terms of reference and get on with it.

Postecoglou doesn't really deserve more players but the club needs them.

Get the team properly organised for a start. Ange doesn’t understand or respect the basics of football at the elite level.

He is getting away with murder because he can speak fluent English and can do the PR stuff. Imagine if he were Pepe Mel or Claude Puel or some other random European manager with a silly accent getting the same results. He’d be laughed at and would have got sacked months ago. He has no business working at this level but he talks a good game and doesn’t have a go at Levy so he gets to stay on the gravy train.

Who do we suggest comes in then?

I don’t want to see Iraola or Silva.. they’ve got no reason to leave their clubs, and we have no right to go and pick them up. We aren’t an attractive proposition.

It’s gonna have to be an interim, someone like Benitez. An experienced manager in both PL and Europe who can stabilise the team. He will at least get the team organised and when you are organised it’s much easier to get results.

The players are giving everything still. So that’s something.

There's 11 of them playing every three or four days. Everything they have to give isn't going to be enough. Ever.

I know attention is on the manager and rightly so but what's happening with our squad has gone from worrying to dangerous. Either pull out of some cup competitions or buy some players to protect the ones we still have who can walk.
 
The owners have a lot more to lose if we’re relegated. I’m wondering whether the delay in getting a replacement manager and new players in this TW, is because they are currently in negotiations to sell the club or getting an investor in.

Eh, this isn't a 15th/16th place squad. Even without injuries, we'd be mid table at best.

ENIC's fault we're not competing for trophies, but the reason we're so shit is completely down to Ange. Worse than we've ever been under ENIC.

I'm not making the post as a defence of Ange. It's just a fact he doesn't have the get out if jail card other manager have had. And, on the balance of probability would have accrued more points with Kane. We've been poor for year's. What curent player (outside of the 2 that were there) gets in the 2019 starting 11?

I don't know but why should we keep this guy? Because of some stupid fcuking desire to win s cup?

He has failed to instill anything.

I can't believe there are no managers who could conceivably do better.

As for attractive, do me a favour.
 
Injuries or not, he’s had a quality of player in enough games to pick up more points than he has. When a team is so open and concedes goals like we are, while struggling to score them game after game, a change is needed.
