Management Ange Postecoglou

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

I know we were expected to lose all these league games and are resting nearly our full first team. BUT its sad what Ange has done to this club. Losing is just acceptable.

So many gutless performances like this across the season. Where we just accept we will lose. Ange standing lifeless on the sideline. Its just sad to watch.

I suspect it will take the next manager a good year to sort this squad out and repair them mentally. Whoever it is I’m not going to be expecting much. Perfect really, nothing Levy likes more than lowering people’s expectations.
 
We've lost the majority of our matches in the PL.

It's been our worst league season in 45 years (in ppg).

It's going to be our worst league finish in 50 years.

On top of that - we were just as shit in the final 6-7 months of last season, it was just covered up by an aberrantly flying start.

There's no reason to keep Ange, and Levy has no cover for keeping him. He should have to pay for his own flight home and not be invited to the parade. If he's still got the job June 1, the CFT mob should burn the stadium down.
So many people fail to see or remember this.
 
We are bottom of the form table below southampton!

Only won 2 games v Ipswich and southampton since the middle of February. It’s farcical.
Apart from relegation in the 70s, I think this time under ange has been the lowest point it has been as a Tottenham fan for me.
Amazingly, he could still win a trophy next week, and yes, we will take it, but there isn't much to celebrate in all honesty.
Really concerned over the future of this club and the direction it's heading in.
 
I think there is the risk we become the new Everton, that this isnt a one off season. Getting Postecoglou and the coaching team out for someone even vaguely competent will help but we're talking adding another 25 to 30 pts a season to make us even semi competitive. Its a huge ask. If we get the next appointment wrong i'm not sure i see many sides we push ahead of, Wolves and West Ham maybe.

His legacy will be making losing a habit.

The next manager will have his work cut out for him, undoing the loser mentality instilled by this loser manager.
Someone on here knows any of that voodoo shit? Let's resuscitate Cloughie. Imagine the peak version of the man walking into that dressing room and sorting out them players. And him exchanging with Ange.

Really good post young Skywalker. No drama just an honest reflection on what has been a horrible season. What I worry about most is the lasting damage Ange has done to the club. An underwhelming summer and a poor start under a new manager next season and it will be another season of protests and humiliation. Even when Ange is finally sacked he will cast a dark shadow over this club for a few more seasons.
 
From the BBC, see below. It does cut away some of the pathetic excuses this Twit uses. And never forget the squad was not deep enough before these injuries.


“According to data from PremierInjuries.com, Tottenham have had the third worst injury crisis in the Premier League, with United the fifth.

In total, Spurs had lost 1,414 days to injuries and suffered 38 separate injuries this season – both the third highest tallies in the league.

United, meanwhile, had lost 1,229 days to injury – the fifth most – with 30 separate injuries, which was the seventh highest figure.

However, Brighton are sat in the top 10 of the Premier League, despite having the worst injury issues so far this season.

According to the data the Seagulls are top with 1,862 days lost to 44 separate injuries - as of 15 May”

There's 0 context to the 'days lost' stat

Who got injured for Brighton? were they key injuries to first teamers? Does that include subs and players who normally wouldn't feature etc...
 
So Ange got us 5th last season (would have got CL this season) and to European final in his second full season in charge and some people aren’t happy!?

We did have our whole back 5 out for a big chunk of the season though. I don't think Brighton's injuries have been to such important players, Milner and March been out for the season not sure if they are even starters if fit. Plus Bentancur missed 8 games through suspension not included in that. Not making excuses for Ange but hard to deny we have had a bad time with injuries.

Yeah. Of course to an extent that can be argued. But going into the season with three CBs was still a risky thing. The Bentancer situation & long ban risk was known while the summer window was still open, and there were squad places available. As football is meant to be a squad game, the squad needs to be fit for purpose to deal with injuries however bad.

And Timo has been and is still missing - oh no wait that probably is not a bad thing 👍
