Because they will hardly train before Villa. Nobody taking over can make any difference before that game.

The only people that can make a difference is the players and they can start by not being such a gang of gutless cowards.

Depends if the players have chucked it where he's concerned.. If they have, then him not being there might trigger a performance..

Now, before tonight I didn't question whether that was the case at all. But tonight was so gutless from the senior players that I can't know for certain anymore.

This twat has lost the plot.

The realisation is setting in hence hes taking out on everyone but the manager. Even called VDV a "pussy". Its finally hit him that he has been wrong all along and he cant fucking accept it so he acts like a little bitch and self implodes.

Postecoglou is making us worse.

Some of his tactical decisions today were horrendous

We are fucked and the season is done.

So is this so called "project" under this guy because he's not phasing any senior player out nor blooding any young talent unless he absolutely has to.

No European football next year either to give the youngster more game time.
 
It's embarrassing at this stage, at start of this week we were in 3 cup competitions and to have any hope in any of them we needed a new manager two months ago. We need rid asap, yes he comes across as likeable, but that's not what we need.
 
Just as how that first half against Everton was one of the worst attempts at a 3 at the back you'll ever see, this was one of the weakest attempts at a low block imaginable. He's not managing Southampton, with this personnel in hand and a gameplan based on shutting up shop there was no excuse for hanging by a thread from the first minute on. We ended up with the worst of both worlds: Failing to pose any threat up front as can be tolerated in a low block, but without any kind of defensive solidity to show for it. Just a full surrender.

For the hundredth time, his refusal to change comes from a place of inability not unwillingness. He's not doing us a big favour by establishing the foundations of a team that'll always know how to attack under any circumstances or anything. More parsimoniously, like how limited some footballers are, he's just a limited manager that is trying to play to his strengths regardless of what the situation in hand actually calls for. Today he actually tried to step out of his comfort zone, which I sympathize with, but failed miserably.
 
I'm not Ange out before this game thinking perhaps he could work something to carry us over the final and who knows?

But now I feel we should make a decision in the coming hours if we wish to keep the FA Cup. Because we aren't beating Villa with such useless setup and negative outcome from today.

Might as well make it quick and painless.

If we lose to Villa, I flip Ange Out.

That was gutless and cowardly. Might as well have been a Conte performance.

What more can be said? We're a joke. Ange is a joke. Anyone who doesn't yet see that he's a joke is a joke. Any further day of this club's existence where they continue to pretend he's the right man for the helm makes a further mockery of this once proud club.

Before Ange I said I always expected this club to be in the Champion's League places, that is or was our standing. Now I just want us not to be a fecking punchline

He almost had Spurs in Champion's League his first season. I think it would have made a difference in terms of player recruitment and, to an extent, on resources available. But he was dismissive of it, as if getting there was less important than the team embracing his style. I still don't get that. Had he driven them on to it last season he'd have more breathing room now.
 
It angers me greatly that this was a great chance to reach a final, but Levy didn't have the balls to sack Ange early in the transfer window with our last 12 months form looking like a relegation side.

We won't win the FA Cup with Ange. We might... might get to the semis of the Europa but at some point we'll face a manager with decent tactics and go out.
 
I'm starting to actually really dislike the guy now. He will never walk so he needs to be pushed. He knows it won't ever get better for him than Tottenham in his career.
 
If we had sacked him months ago and actually appointed a competent manager with a plan, we might have won tonight, or actually given a good account of ourselves.

We seem to just go game by game, month by month, losing games pathetically, and the club still gives him more and more games.

WHen is this nightmare going to end?

Please just put us out of this misery.
 
He should go but does it really matter

Yup he’s clueless but we’ll stay up , just , fall out the cups as most of us predicted

Then we’ll get some poor cunt in

We go again

Dont think we'll sack him before Villa. Should but wont. After Villa there is a weeks gap before Utd. If we lose it has to be done then but got a sinking feeling he's here for the season unless league form carries on being terrible. Levy has made some horrendous errors over the years but this is up there.
