Manager Ange Postecoglou

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports
If he’s still here next season I can imagine that I won’t be the only one cancelling my Sky, TNT and Prime subscriptions!
You will be OK.
We will get you through it.
Terry Neil, Gross, Ramos and AVB had a similar effect on me.
That is fair enough and maybe I am being harsh about him just because I am so frustrated with Spurs and Ange and seeing Dawson sit there backing him pretending everything is going to be ok boils my piss. I find it's mugging off the fans. Just come out and say it, but he won't.
I know he's Spurs, but he just repeats cliches whenever I see him on TV.
I'm sure he's a great bloke, and he was always appreciated as a player but I don't like him as a pundit. My opinion might change on him in more positive times again but maybe he should stick to the after dinner circuit which he's paid for and clearly does well at.
Appreciate that mate, thank you.
Pretty simple for most of us who want him to be given a chance - let him have a run of games with a decent pool of players and replacements and if we're still losing continually, then like any manager he would need to move on .
Sacking him under the current circumstances are like criticising a boxer for failing to win fights when his arms are tied behind his back.
And spare me the bullshit of trying to make an analogy of him tying his arms behind his own back, because that makes as much sense as him crippling his current squad of players.
He's going to be sacked before next season.
It's just a question of whether he can get us to crawl over the line to safety and allow pinhead some time in the summer to make his next awful choice, or bring us to the brink of relegation and force the poisoned dwarf to scramble for literally anyone who has the faintest idea of what they're doing.

At least the number of Ange profile pics has on here as pretty much diminished. I think we're down to the last 3 now
I guess our squad right now is worse than Brentford, CP, Fulham, Bournemouth etc. to be in 14th...
If your weak posts are anything to go by, my money’s on the 9 year old.
Levy will wait until he feels a safely cheap, unassailable moment, and pick his target, who will have no one better to choose from. Just as with his transfer strategies, there will be absolutely NO overspending to beat out other clubs or get any business done early.
The Salisbury City FC manager looks decent tbf. But his salary might be a little out of our salary bracket. One can dream though....
Agree- feels very similar to the post-Bale, Sherwood era. I didn't watch much during that time- football was too brutal after watching Bale tear it up for several seasons. This season, I've canceled my fancy web-subscription in December (fubo) that allows me to watch the blackout games here in the states ($80/month). I still have paramount and espn+ and peacock which catch most of the rest but yea- not gonna spend that extra dough just to watch us get pumped in big games. The football is just not credible right now, unfortunately.

I don't think Levy will pony up dough for Iraola, who will be in demand throughout Europe at the end of this season, and will ultimately go elsewhere. Of the rest we are linked with, Frank seems to be doing worse than Silva right now. I would hope Levy recognizes this and avoids him. Silva I think would be willing but Levy thinks he can do better.
For me this leaves Terzic, who I can easily see Levy being enamored with. No big fee to break his contract, not already on high PL wages. He may already have a NDA'd agreement with him to take over at the end of the season, or something contingent and similar.
I think Silva is the perfect manager for Spurs but that Iraola would be better than Terzic. In the end I think we end up with Terzic though- just knowing the preferences of the decision-making parties and the available candidates- it seems almost inevitable. I wouldn't be surprised to see Ange sacked and Terzic brought in immediately at any time now.
Terzic I don't know that well but I do acknowledge he's had a lot of success. I also like that he was Bilic's assistant in WHam- he at least has some direct experience with prem football. It'll be interesting to see how it all plays out.
What are you smoking? Can I have some!
Other than when he publicly said Werner’s performance wasn’t good enough ( in the context of he’s a German international and should be better) he has NEVER blamed the players. He constantly defends them and says the blame lies with him.
You can hate Ange and want him sacked etc etc but don’t sprout bullshit. He has stated they’re fatigued, they’re knackered, they’re young etc but he’s never said they’re not good enough for his system.
Bludger means lazy.
Wow....what a read, I genuinely pity you. I guess what you're feeling emotionally is what I imagine it feels like to be above 90+ IQ.
I'm genuinely looking forward to winning a major trophy or two next season when we've overcome this unfortunate injury scare. No question, Flange is a master tactician, he's so stealth and wise that no one can actually conceptualise what he's doing in real time to trigger our play into our usual elite level performances.
