Winning the Europa gives us a great chance of getting a better calibre of manager. I hope the players realise this and give everything possible to win it. The flip side is they might realise they will get punted and better players will replace them.

Mate I agree, it's been an easy run, but when you analyse it, 'if' we win the trophy then it's silverware in our cabinet. Instead of focussing on negatives such as it's only the Ropey league, a top 4 club shouldn't be satisfied with that, it was an easy run. We should just be keen to win, and take every cup seriously, without belittling the thing before we've even won it.I’ll 100% celebrate winning it and I want this trophy desperately, but if you look at it purely objectively rather than emotionally, we’re in the semis because we haven’t had to play a particularly high standard of opponent.
You know you can think both things!
What would be ideal is if we lose by one to Bodo, fat cunt gets sacked we get new manager bounce and turn it around in the second leg and then win the thing without him.I just feel really sad that Levy isn’t brave enough to sack him today and increase our chances of winning the Europa drastically.
All because he is too scared we don’t win it and the narrative then becomes that Levy made a huge mistake saving this fraud.
He knows he should sack him but he doesn’t want to be accountable like he was with the Jose sacking.
I agree but the league form still means Ange should be gone and should have been sacked. I am sorry but the man has shown that what works in Scotland, J-League and A-League does not work in the Premier League. Even the fact he doesn't have a coaching team follow him from club to club has shown to be a poor decision. The fact is the moment Chris Davies left it screwed Ange even more.Mate I agree, it's been an easy run, but when you analyse it, 'if' we win the trophy then it's silverware in our cabinet.

Absolutely bizarre then that Vicario, went on Australian Tv and backed Ange.Not that it’s a surprise, but a poster on SC who was with Vicario’s family out in Frankfurt (he posted photos) has said the whole defensive unit hate how they are asked to play. Not revelatory but I thought worth posting over as it highlights what a mess things are behind the scenes.

I dont doubt Levys incompetence to make shit appointments but really bored of the false equivalence. This sort of league season has only been seen 3 or 4 times since the war. This isnt Jol, Redknapp or Poch or even Conte or AVB. This isnt normal. He's just a useless manager.

Levy is 100% still calling the shots.Incorrect
This is what the majority of you cunts wanted
'GET LEVY AWAY FROM THE FOOTBALL SIDE'
So he did, and hired Scott Munn who had a decent reputation behind the scenes
Now we have to wait for an end of season review for him to fuck off Munn & Ange
It's not being sad or scared, it's you being a bitch and not owning what you once craved
Well that's the question we all have asked ourselfs for a long time now.Not that it’s a surprise, but a poster on SC who was with Vicario’s family out in Frankfurt (he posted photos) has said the whole defensive unit hate how they are asked to play.

Plus a super cup match in august. Chance for another trophy, extra revenue and weve never played in that before. Extra motivation.Wether or not the Europa is second rate. It leads to CL qualification, and there's NOTHING second rate about that

I watched the first half.Didn't watch the Pool game and won't be watching another league game this season.
Why would I waste my time tuning in when clearly the manager and players are now treating the PL as glorified training sessions? It's a complete embarrassment and an insult to fans.
Having this fat chancer in charge of the team is the lowest point I can remember as a Spurs fan. It's so bad that even a EL win will probably feel hollow.
Ange has created a divide with the coaching staff and players on one side and fans/media on the other. Like we are out of line to criticise a historically bad PL campaign and 17th place finish all because we've beaten a few tin pot sides in Europe's B competition and may go on to win a trophy.
The guy is a grifter and his exit can't come soon enough.
Tbh I think maddison has a long time ago. Did read somewhere a while back him and ange had a bust up. Unconfirmed. Tbh I just think players are being professional. Our manager is like basil fawlty. Clueless.It's a surprise to me that the players haven't turned on him yet. Normally by now you start to get the reports of dissatisfaction with the training methods etc.
I can only assume that Ange has everyone brainwashed and drinking the Kool Aid at Hotspur Way. It is an impressive achievement if you think about it.
Maybe he rules through fear. Assistants shit scared to speak up and players get an easy ride because his suicidal tactics reflect badly on him rather than them so they are not bothered enough to kick up a fuss.
And with EL still ongoing there has always been something to cling to to justify this disgraceful season.
