It's stunning to me the ease at which this manager and now the players are able to lay the blame for the teams ills at the feet of the fans. Fans who have on the whole, treated this manager and the players so delicately and beyond fairly. They have had their bellys tickled and recieved exorbitant praise over the last 16 months for below bare minimum shit. Many fans have allowed them every excuse and have dropped the acceptable standards of a great football club, in order to accomidate the manager and the teams incompetent performances.

And now they want to pull this shit? Fuck off.

The weird one for me is “but it means we’ll get Mason” now, I want us to completely clear out ALL of the coaching staff. But, honestly, if it’s Ange or Mason? Is there really much difference?

Genuinely, if Mason got the Celtic job, would you bet against him winning the league?
Pretty sure Mason wont send both full backs into the attacking half leaving us totally exposed. Unfortunately Ange never learns he's an arrogant idiot
 
Watched the game with no enthusiasm at all and that sums it up for me. I’m usually overly excited about every game but not now. Not even Thursday night will bring me that. As I’ve said before I hate people losing their jobs but I honestly have no clue how Ange is still here. 1 home league win in 10. 5 in 15. Out both domestic cups and hanging by a thread in Europe against the weakest team left in it.

We all know we’ll win on Thursday and this will drag on. If Ange is in charge next season then I’m out. I can’t watch what we serve up. At times it can be enjoyable but most of the time we are sitting there waiting for the opposition to score. To be so open in every single game we play and never ever change is utter madness.

Ange is a stubborn cunt. His coaching staff are yes men. Our players don’t have the balls to question the tactics. Maybe that’s why we have the softest captain ever to have played the game. Maybe why someone like madders who’s got an opinion and will air it isn’t a regular. Maybe that’s why Romero isn’t giving a fuck.
Everything about this season is a shit show and for the powers that be to let this continue fucking stinks.

I don't disagree with any of that except Thursday night.

I'm half thinking about a ticket and a flight. Work probably makes it impossible but I'm really tempted. I've said Ange has to go after the first leg and I've said the players are wankers who let the fans down, and I've slagged the owners no end.... but I'm still a Spurs fan and I'm talking myself into it...
 
Pick any manager you like and the results would likely improve immediately. And not from a bounce just from players being… Managed.

This is getting ridiculous now the guy is sooo out of his depth it's unreal
This constant of one way of playing regardless is killing us.
The playing out from the back the way we are trying to do it is suicidal and the way we bomb forward as soon as we have possession and leave ourselves totally exposed at the back reminds me of an U10s game
Fuck him off now before we have nothing to play for, sacking him after we get knocked out of EL is pointless
That’s the saddest part of this season. We could well have won the EL had we sacked Ange
 
I've lost count of the number of games we could have been 3 down after 15 minutes.
What goes on in the dressing room, what is the message as the players go out
The thing that gets me, is the simps who say things like "we only ever lose by 1" as if it's a sign we were good.
It's a combination of wasteful opponents, Vicario, and scoring late consolation goals that have fooled them into thinking we weren't outclassed a lot

The whole ethos of his plan, seems to hinge on, getting as high up the pitch as possible to overwhelm the opponent.
But we don't do that, generally, teams have so many chances against us because of how open they are. We end up getting away with it when teams don't take their chances.
He seems to shrug his shoulder's and continues to believe it will suddenly change.
 
What I noticed more than ever is that their players always seemed to have loads of time on the ball and ours didn’t.

Players were never in the right place. Lots of fans can’t understand it though, so around me were perplexed by it. Just shows how little the average fan gets about football and tactics.

Honestly it was so bad. Today was as bad as I’ve seen it. A decent team would have dispatched that Bournemouth team easily, they were nothing special.

Because we play bum prized open football with no plan.
 
Never disliked anyone at Spurs more than this cunt.

Made a point of calling out the atmosphere again in the post match presser. He’s a passive aggressive, snide, whiny little fucker and I cannot wait for him to get booted out the door.
