Management Ange Postecoglou

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

That third season line from Ange was a really calculated attempt to try and make him unsackable to Levy and the board.

Thankfully I don't see Paratici falling for Ange's preplanned bullshit. And make no mistake, that line was preplanned.
 
What we did on Wednesday night has no bearing on what happens when we line up against top quality PL teams next season. It will in fact be even worse. We struggled massively in the PL last season and combining that with Europa. How do people think we will manage combining the PL with CL matches and quality opposition? It's going to be a fucking disaster.

...

Nobody has any answers to this, it's simply "Ange has to be given another season, we can't sack him after this"

We have two full years of data about what happens when Ange lines up against decent opponents

1 PPG

And that figure was buoyed by a fast start last year that never was duplicated

It will only take a couple of games of the same old shit for people to realize retaining him based on the vibes was a titanic mistake, but by that time it will be too late.
 
the squad won that, it was by far the best squad in the competition. mason would of 'won' if he was the one putting out the likes of VDV and romero...

Look, I agree with you to an extent. However he was the manager for our first major trophy for 17 years and first european trophy for over 40 years.

I think we had massive rub of the green to win it, but teams need that in cup runs. I want him gone and think he's a fucking blagger, but I won't knock him or take away the achievement.

What I will say, is his performances in the league show that he isn't a very good manager at all. No matter how we won the trophy, my opinion won't change on Ange, he's nowhere near good enough.
 
You’d have sacked him for a mid tablist who would have prioritized finishing top 8 over the Europa.


We wouldn’t be having the fucking time of our lives if the club did what you think is the smart thing to do.

Then you told us we’d lose to Frankfurt because they were half competent or some weak boy drivel like that.

Give it a rest, you were wrong.

Yeah only Ange could have achieved the miracle of beating AZ, Frankfurt or Bodo. Only him. Deluded fucking waffle.

You were wrong. We finished 17th. This manager is fucking shite and has been for a year and a half, one cup run doesn’t change shit and anyone on here with a functioning brain knows it. Only the thick as shit posters who I wouldn’t piss on if they were on fire continue to argue otherwise.
 
sometimes you kind of have to be open minded with these things. He won a trophy so he has leverage over Levy in sense and won't accept "potential' again. We bring in someone like Mckenna and he would simply accept what he's given.

I want us to sign experience proven players and the best bet doing that is either with Ange (who has said countless times now we have to bring in experience) and bring a proven winner in like Xavi or even Glasner who also wouldn't just accept what he's given. Forget Silva, forget Mcknenna (who I like), forget Frank (who I like), forget that Italian that just got sacked by Ajax.

Of all the realistic possibilities it would be:

1) Xavi
2) Glasner
3) Ange

If Ange stays it will be a fucking disaster.

But I am sure he will be gone. If you just watched that parade today you'd think there's no chance he goes.

But with the football operations revamp, and backroom changes, I'll be amazed and shocked if the club decide to go again with Ange. I can't imagine Paratici coming back, and giving Ange 1 point per game and 17th place, the greenlight to go again.

And if everything was going so well, why is Levy offering Paraticiy a shit load of money to return and make all the football decisions? and Paratici isn't coming back to be Levy's yes man.

There can be no sentiment in decisions like this.

Mmmmm, you think that's a premeditated move to force pressure on to Levy and the board? FMD...

You'd assume a decision has been made prior to that statement..

Some supporters lens on Ange is absolutely disingenuous and absolutely disgraceful in how they come to the conclusions they come to. It's like he's brought you the joy and he's still Judas.
 
fair play to him, he really does know how to get the simpletons on side.
200,000 on Tottenham High Road, 25,000 in Bilbao, 45,000 at the stadium on Wednesday. There’s a helluva lot of simpletons in that lot

I’m not saying you’re wrong to stick to your guns. But ppl like me got fed up with being so negative. I’ve got my Tottenham passion back - and I was genuinely worried I’d lost it forever - and if the club decide to keep him, I’m going to try and be comfortable with it.

Ange did

Bigger names before couldn’t

Keep fighting your fight. I’m sure it’s helping someone.
 
recall a lot of fapping over Amorin as an Ange replacement before united snapped him up. Haven’t been following united too closely but how did he go once he got there?

Just be careful what you wish for with Ange out calls. Not saying right or wrong, but it’s not a simple thing, could just as easily set the club back a lot further.

Lets be honest this post alone shows your character as a person. 'thick as shit posters who I wouldn't piss on if they were on fire' imagine saying this about fellow spurs fans because they dare to offer praise to our manager who has just helped us win a trophy. I wouldn't even expect a Woolwich fan to put something as horrible as that let alone one of our own, you're a disgrace with that comment and it should be enough to get you sin binned.
 
Do you know why Man Utd were such formidable opponents to play against under Alex Ferguson?
It wasnt just the fact they had a great team it was the winning mentality he installed into all his sides as pre premier league winners
i.e as Ange touched on Wednesday night that now this team can have there pictures all over the walls at our stadium and the actual feeling of winning a trophy is what breeds success.
Imagine next season when this team has there names and pictures dotted all over the walls & tunnel straight away psychologically you are fucking with all opposing teams heads pre match showing them we are the Europa league winners 2025 and now we going build on this and Ange has earned the right to lead this team to further glory in the years to come

COYS
 
They won't sack him.

For me the one thing in Ange's favour is that he still has the players. They've all said as much. No stories in the press about how bad training is etc.

That means something. He's also delivered a pot. Maybe next season it's the League Cup or the FA Cup. The players have a taste for it now.

Ultimately I think he will fail and end up being sacked in November. But I just can't see a world where Levy sacks him now.

What's 'disingenuous' about saying he's a 1 PPG manager , who has led his team down to 17th place, to club record for defeats, has no wins vs Woolwich or Chelsea in his tenure against 7 losses to the same, and all the rest of the facts and data one could produce? Those are facts, in black and white.
