The test will truly come when all these absentees come back….

Seemingly Johnson, odobert, Werner vicario and solanke were imminent..

So no more excuses big man… I’m sure we’ll now see the Brazil 1970s style we’re used to….
Most of these players were 10 days apparently two press conferences ago, bar Solanke (a week behind) and Romero (tricky).

That’s about now.
 
Not really, it was a comparison after someone suggested we were uncoached under Redknapp.

Having said that, he may be 77 and not set foot on a training pitch in 10 years and he'd still be an improvement on the current bluffer.
if it was a binary choice even now between the 2 then it's no comparison. I'd be very interested to hear off the record what HR thinks about the whole shitshow and what he'd do instead. He did it after Ramos after all.
 
Harry Redknapp is not the answer to the problems, no matter how well he did before (reminder he gave up as soon as he was linked with England)

Next manager is going to be let down the same way the others have.
 
we've not played actual "Ange ball" in a while, it's all been passive , slow stuff. not sure whether he's tweaked things to be less demanding and more defensive or if the players just can't do what he asks anymore but this current football isnt easy on the eye at all.
bad results and bad football is not a good combination

Unfortunately when these players are all back there is a strong possibility that we will see Palace, Ipswich and Brighton level of performances still because the tactics are horrific. And we had to witness a load of duff 90 minutes when they were all fit.

I think its just tiredness and injuries stopping it. He is the wrong man for the job but he is up against it right now.
 
But what is the alternative? Who will come in now? We need to plan for him to go in the summer when we can get in a Iraola or someone but there's no point in him going now.
Accepting this type of failure is now part of the problem.

Ange must be sacked after last night.

No shots on target in a semi final?

Where is there to go from here?

Allowing this farce to get to this point is making Spurs look ridiculous.

An experienced interim manager is what Spurs need at the present moment.

Ange cannot be trusted to take this team until the end of the season.

He is simply clueless.

There is nothing to get hold of with Ange now.

How bad does it have to get before this fact can be accepted?
 
I honestly don't think there's anything that will get him sacked, short of losing every game 7-0 from here on out. As soon as I started seeing all that PR fluff about how Emperor Ange single handedly convinced Tel to join us, I was convinced we were stuck with him.
 
You made yourself look like an utter tit tbh. Like one of those cyber dweebs that rage quit when someone kills them on COD.

You specifically singled out VDV who returned early from an injury and played longer then the medical team permitted. The player who then came back to training later then Romero yet played before him. Romero has missed games and magically got fit for international duty many times over the years and now he has no return date despite training for weeks and cant even be bothered to come watch us play with his injured teammates.

With all that being said your hypocrotical self labelled VDV the pussy and youre now doubling down making sarcy comments about his eye colour.

Your manager who you placed all the faith in the world has failed you. Just accept you got it horribly wrong and move on ffs. We're all fallible, we get shit wrong.
It is weird that all the injured players can't actually be arsed to come and cheer the team on from the sides in a semi final.

Whenever Kane got injured he was there come hell or highwater cheering the team on.

Agreed. I think judge him from United onwards as we likely will have a lot of options then, those players back, vdv and romero back, danso in, tel in, 1 game a week for a while so can rotate and be fresh, hopefully actually playing a starting 11 that actually suits the system. I just want to see the below team for a couple of games,

Vicario,
Spence
Romero
VDV
Udogie
bentacur/gray
Bergvall
Kulu
Tel
Solanke
Odobert

With johnson, porro and son coming on against tired legs. Sarr coming on to help bring legs in midfield later on.

He is but are the interim options less clueless? Can any manager in the world do better with the situation available to range right now? Weve got our selves in bad states sacking managers early before.
