Manager Ange Postecoglou

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

It's a difficult one for sure. I can see the argument from both sides, as our league form has been utterly atrocious and, in virtually any other season, would have seen us relegated. However, the trophy does change the landscape somewhat.

I've been watching Sky Sports news today and paid particular attention to the Football finance expert who was saying just how much money Utd will miss out on by not getting to the CL, money that will now come to us. He reckons it's around £100M, with things like sponsor bonuses, additional games etc. That wasn't even taking into account getting to the final. Progression in the CL can lead to anything up to £200M in additional revenue.

Apart from actually winning the trophy itself, that is also what AP has brought to the club by winning the EL.

As such, I don't think it's a foregone conclusion that he'll be moved on before next season.

I won't lie, I have the same concerns that everyone else has, but he's done a bit more than just win us that long sought after trophy, he's also bolstered the bank account significantly. What remains to be seen is whether that money is used wisely.

I think any sane Spurs fan has every right to have concerns about the league form.

But Ange will be here to start the season so we may as well go into it with the good vibes of a team that just won a major European trophy.

We’ve had so many shit anti climax season ends, why not enjoy this one?
 
He still definitely has the dressing room. Not often you get big bonds like this between managers and players. I say we ride this train a bit longer and see what else he can deliver :angehug:

We shall see. There's no doubt the players were 100% behind him. He had the backing of all the locker room leaders. Son, Vicario, Romero. Porro and Johnson too. You know Archie and Bergvall will run through a wall for him.

Wonder if Ange staying has any impact on Romero or is he already gone?

Couldn't agree more mate.

Now is the time to just kick back and bask in the reflected glory. Then we'll see what next season brings when we reset.

One thing is for sure though, we absolutely MUST spend that money wisely, but that's for the Summer window, not now.
 
I don't know why people get upset about saying that we had a fairly easy run to win the trophy. We played an average Frankfurt, Bodo fucking Glimt (wtf are they?) and the worst United side in living memory.

It takes nothing away from our glory, or success. But it seems some can't look at things objectively.

Obviously nobody cares who we played to win it, and nor should we/they. All that matters is history saying Europa League Winners 2025 Tottenham Hotspur

But when it comes to assessing the manager, this stuff does matter. I am not sure why some people say those 3 wins are enough to keep a manager, over a horrendous 38 game PL season.

Ange did great in the Europa, that's fantastic, but we won't be in that competition next season. We will however still be in the PL, and he's been utter shit in that.

We played a load of average teams but not one of you thought that we'd win this competition before a ball was kicked...:harrysmile:

Well, is it any wonder many of us had no confidence we would win when we've been so utter shit all season long? And we were the bookies favourite at the start.

Easy to mock people with the benefit of hindsight now isn't it.
 
Which one of you was gassing up this loser last week, hanging off the end of his cock just because he was being 'straightforward' and 'honest' lol what bollocks

The guy's an utter loser, he's ready to jump ship because the job is too big for him even though he's partly responsible for their form right now. :D

The Europa League draw was made in August, that was at the start of the season, I didn't see anyone on here claiming that we should be winning this comp back then...

Why so angry? We just won a huge trophy. Everyone should be delighted now.

We won a trophy and Ange is going. It's literally the best of both worlds.

I do agree Amorim is fucking awful.
 
You can be Ange out and that’s fine. Totally understandable based on league form.

But those “fans” trying to put down our achievement aren’t fans. They’re gooner trolls.

And if they don’t stop, I’m going to fucking deal with them. Severely.

So fuck off you muggy little cunts. You’re no longer welcome here.

Fucking always some gimp trying to spoil things for everyone else

Qarabag, Ferencvaros, AZ x 3, Hoffenheim, Elfsborg, Bodo = enough said.

Even Roma, Galatasaray and Marmoush-less Frankfurt (who also lost Gotze for a chunk) were hardly PSG...knowing Galatasaray sodomised us and we were lucky not to also lose to Roma.

As for United, I mean...Still, they coulda/shoulda scored at least once last night and might have been a different story had the game gone to ET.

We won it and that's grand. I'll give Ange a couple creds, ditto the players. But unlike you I'm not gonna fool myself into thinking we were Brazil v1970.

To be honest you've been switching sides & opinions more often than a full-time prosie turns tricks, so your takes since EL glory are no surprise.
 
I think I'd still prefer someone else take the helm as we head into a PL and CL campaign.

But, fuck, why are we even discussing it/fighting about it yet. We're less than 24 hours removed from the trophy! We and he fucking did it. Congrats all around right now!

We were lucky to not lose to Roma??

We had a 2-1 lead in stoppage time, had more “big chances”, more shots, by any metric we should have won that match fairly convincingly.
