Management Ange Postecoglou

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

We could replace him with Glasner. He's a "mid table guy" who can actually coach a team and guess what! He won a trophy too, against much harder teams than Ange had to beat, and he also won the Europa League at Frankfurt too if that helps? Just all round more successful than Ange under much harder circumstances.

Everyone's happy - rid of the fraud, in with a proper coach.
Ok, what about Glasner then? He's won the Europa league and FA cup in the last few seasons and overcame much, much harder circumstances to secure a decent finish in the table for Palace. He's proven he can fight on multiple fronts AND succeed. Would that be a high enough bar for you?

Glasner is about to extend his contract.

But for argument sake, that is getting closer to the type of profile you would need to stand a chance.

IMO Glasner isn’t worth the risk. Hes won EL but so have we now. Why take a gamble on a sideways step?
 
Fuck off away from this forum. No one wants you here. You are not liked. You are a dirty rotten vindictive callous little snake.

Oh no, no one likes me on a forum, however will I cope :pochcry:

Get in the bin you silly little man
 
I said a few times on this board over the past couple of months that I thought if we won the EL, Ange would be kept on. I still think that. It's a massive win for the club. Feels like this restores some much needed prestige, glamour and appeal to the club? I also think it's likely to go horribly wrong next season!
keeping him kills us. the league results have been shocking since 9 men chelsea and they aint getting better because we beat the worst united side ever in a final.

well see if levy really thinks hes operating at a big club here. because keeping him would be seriously small time.
 
You are MASSIVELY under-rating the importance of it.

there are 3 trophies for most teams in the prem to have a chance to win each season - two of which -one of 2 clubs have really won over the last 10 years.

Winning trophies is rare for 95% of clubs, including us.

We won it was fucking massive man. give this nonsense a rest and get your head out of your ass.

NO ONE is saying they are feeling like this is the pinnacle of their playing careers that they should strive for, but for man,y it is the pinnacle of their career so far. Who are you to take that away from them? PATHETIC LOSER MENTALITY
There's a decent chance it actually will be the pinnacle of their club careers. What % of PL players actually get to win the PL or the CL?
 
All of you just need to take a fucking minute to enjoy the trophy. I cannot grasp how this moment has become a massive cunt off about who is right about what and who.

And there's certain cunts on here deliberately pouring petrol on the fire and they know who they are.

I reckon Levy will get one of his Fan Forum things done in pretty short order now. Got our Tottenham back stuff. It's a narrow window of opportunity over the summer.

"loser mentality" is being fine and dandy with getting turned over 21 times in a season. "loser mentality" is doing a favour to a guy because finally we can be the chirpy cunt to our mates. "loser mentality" is saying you couldn't even contest winnable home league games against relegated sides because you "had to prioritise the Europa league".

This cup win is amazing, I was just as happy as anyone, my old man has waited his whole lifetime to see us lift a European trophy again and I'm more happy for him than anyone. But this doesn't erase the last 9 months in the league. We will go the way of Everton if we don't do something about it now.

It's not a sideways step. Our wage budget is about 1/3 of Frankfurts, we entered this competition as favourites.

Glasner, in the same environment (prem) has beaten Ange home and away, finished on far more points, his team actually look coached and he's won a trophy too.

yes and he should have been banned long before now. He comes on here to instigate and antagonise. How the fuck is he allowed to get away with it

No one is saying it erases anything, bro. You are pontificating that winning a trophy over 95% of pro footballers will never win wont mean absolutely everything to the players?

Absurb - you are projecting.

It doesnt mean that much to YOU because of our league position.

It will mean everything to our group of players. absolutely everything - in many ways, because of attitudes like you have put across here.
 
I know it's great isn't it xx

Anyway back on topic, here's a lovely pic for you and for everyone we can all get behind:

You think this picture makes me mad? I was telling people on here on Wednesday night that they need to get a grip and start being positive and start to believe. I also stated that I hope Ange rubs the journos noses in it. I still do not think he’s a good manager but I was sure happy for him on Wednesday night
 
What makes you all so sure that Ange is going to fail next season in the prem?

Surely there is a part of you that sees we are breaking new ground here and that just maybe, we can reach new heights with a full squad and full buy in with a now winning mentality.

The main point I want to make is, it's okay to be wrong. It's okay for you to be wrong thinking Ange wasn't the guy, and to give him a chance. And it's okay for me to be wrong, thinking he is, and to eventually part ways if he's not and it doesn't work out.

But isn't it worth the risk to try? To dare is to do, isn't it?
I really don’t want to put down winning this competition and what it means to this fanbase, especially as I’m getting ready soon to head to the parade. But taking the emotion out of it, does us beating Man Utd who we had already beaten 3 times this season really mean we’re going to suddenly start performing consistently in the prem ?

Sorry I just have to be honest, I don’t see anything changing with our league form were he to stay. I would have massive concerns how he’s going to manage prem with an even tougher European competition. He’s had enough time to show how he manages the complexities of the premier league and it’s just too much for him. Hes elite at getting players up for a big occasion, I see why he’s done well in international football. But that just doesn’t work for a 38 game premier league campaign, you need a lot more to get consistent results and performances.

You say give him a chance, but how long does he get? If he starts badly next season he would be out the door pretty quickly and then we’re hiring another coach mid season to pick up the pieces. I think it’s just best for everyone for a clean break after the Brighton game, let him enjoy the scenes today and the support on the last day and go out a hero rather than a juande Ramos situation where he’s mostly remembered for the wrong reasons rather than a trophy winning spurs manager.

I'm not saying it means nothing to them. I'm saying if you think the players would be incapable of contextualising the reasons for why he should go, and come to some level of understanding on behalf of the club and fans that it's for the best interests of the club, as highly, HIGHLY paid professionals, you're romanticising the relationship they've built with Ange in favour of actual cold, hard logic. 21 league defeats is that cold, hard logic. This is great for them, great for Ange, great for the fans. It's time to part ways and find a serious manager. There is no way we can build sustainable success getting turned over in more than half our league games, we are not going to get a run to a final that favourable again in a long, long time. We were insanely lucky to come up against a United side who are, on balance, even shitter than we are, despite being a point above us.
