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.

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 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.
Absolutely bizarre then that Vicario, went on Australian Tv and backed Ange.
Let's be honest everyone knows he's gone. Even Ange knows.
It's just a matter of waiting until Europe is resolved one way or another.
Levy is never sacking Ange whilst we are still in Europe because if we then get knocked out managed by Wells and Mason, Levy will be the one getting all the anger.
So whilst Ange is in place, he's a shield for Levy, and if we don't win it, he can sack Ange and deflect most of the blame yet again.
It sickens me how this club is run by Levy.
Ange should have been sacked at Xmas, why the fuck didn't he do it then? I have no idea. He was already well overdue a sacking even at that stage.
Worst league season in my lifetime and I'm in my early 40s.
Yet I still woke up this morning and have been checking the news furiously to see if he'd been sacked.

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
And as a person he’s an arrogant cunt!
No wonder he supports the Dippers!
It’s still on Vicario not to pass to one of our defenders in the box who’s clearly marked and not ready for it!
Distribution is shocking by him!
No wonder.
As we saw Vs Frankfurt, this team are able to defend better than this.
Levy is 100% still calling the shots.

Well that's the question we all have asked ourselfs for a long time now.
Are our defence this shit, or is it the tactics??
My guess is it's a bit of both.
Plus a super cup match in august. Chance for another trophy, extra revenue and weve never played in that before. Extra motivation.
Even ex aussie soccer players are saying ange is gone. Robbie Slater was saying his days are numbered.
I watched the first half.
2nd half I went outside and cleaned the BBQ for 2025 summer time.
I had more fun scrubbing up cast iron grill plates in a bucket of soapy water than watching them rip us apart.
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.

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.
Well he's managed to keep a lid on it way better than much higher level managers have done in the past (Conte/Mourinho). Maybe it's because he very rarely directly throws players under the bus in interviews (Werner being the exception and no one cares about him).
Thing is, sticking with him is it's own gamble in that respect, because there's every chance we go out to Bodo Glimt in the semis and then he's open to the accusation that he cocked up by sticking with a lame duck of a manager that has overseen the worst League campaign in recent memory.
