We won't have a better chance to save what's left of the season than now. Sack him before the last international break, and try to salvage the Europa League. It's not even the results anymore (those have been shit since November 2023), it's the performances.
Are we really going to tolerate this for another 2.5 months? Its just complete acceptance of incompetence. Fuck you Levy, Munn and Lange.
I supported him for a long time. Liked a lot of what he was doing. Liked that he wants to play attacking football, and his intent to stick to plan A at all times. I love that he dares to speak out against VAR.
However, the football we are playing is simply shit. You can say we are where we are because of injuries. I am not so certain we are.
I saw PSG vs Liverpool the other day. That was quality players playing mostly quality football. It was very clearly different from what we see from Spurs. The way we lose the ball trying to play out of defence, time and time again, screams lack of quality both in how we are set up to play and how the players solve the situations they are in.
When we are lucky enough to break through the press, it looks random. When we get close to the opponent box, we seem clueless, and players look scared to take any sort of responsibility.
It's not like we are unlucky when we lose. Like we lack the margins. No, we are simply significantly worse than our opponents in most games. I would say that we have been lucky more than unlucky with results compared to quality of play.
We simply play like a bottom half team, and fully deserve to be where we are.
I would love it if Ange was succeeding. When we had Mourinho I wished for him to fail, because I think he is a manager who damages football in general, the club he manages, and the players that plays under his leadership. Ange I think could do the opposite.
But it just is not working. The football is dreadful. Some blame has to go to those that built a squad that is reliant on Son and Solanke and Johnson as a front trio. I am not sure anyone could get near top 4 with this group of players. But it should be possible to do a lot better than we are doing this season.

Ange coached the win but the players didnt execute.
Injuries
Too many games in a short space of time
Too few games for the players to gel
Too much rotation
Not enough rotation
Players are tired
Too many young players
Opposition had more rest than us
Any more excuses for this absolute fraud?

Trying to resist the urge to call for his sacking until we get bundled out of the EL, but it’s hard

no get this greek cunt out nowThis
It’s scary how convincing his monologues are.
If his words won games we’d win the league, and sometimes I question whether I’m being too harsh on him
But the actual football is diabolical
But, we only lose by a one goal difference when we lose. What happened? Ange never loses by 2. And we have a positive goal difference. If we looked at only goal difference and goals scored, our team is so good.
We must keep Ange.
We must keep Ange.
3 weeks is enough time to transition. If it doesn’t happen now it ain’t happening.
The rotated players were too rested.
Tricky pitches
