Management Ange Postecoglou

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

100%. The decision was taken weeks ago so I'll be shocked if they change their mind based on Wednesday.

It explains why Ange is saying what he is saying in public. Bit of a last attempt to influence the situation in his favour.

Sunday will be a celebatory atmosphere, and obviously the result won't matter, but it will bring people back down to earth with a bump if we lose. It will be a reminder that this is the club under Ange in the PL, constant defeats.
We lost 1-4 and were completely out played. Understandable to some extent however the inability of our players to keep the ball is shocking. We can’t string 5 passes together. You’d think after 2 years we would have system of play that was now I grained into players and it was telepathic almost using muscle memory. We actually no identify in a style of football. We offer nothing going forward and teams just waltz through us even with everyone back.
 
He has no incentive to walk out of his own accord. Zero.

A kind of mutual agreement where he receives only a portion of his payout would obviously lose him money, but also leave him with nowhere to go. Due to his very underwhelming CV for this level, it's highly improbable that he'll get another job this big. If he were to leave he would probably be left not only with less money but also with a smaller job. Makes zero sense from his perspective to downgrade like that, fresh off of by far the biggest accomplishment of his life.

Unless he's done with management for good and wants to walk into the sunset, it's sensible for him to hold on to this job until he gets the boot. He would lose whatever goodwill he has earned in the last few days, but I highly doubt he cares.

He won’t leave on his own, I think he made that clear. At best, it will be “by mutual consent” if he goes. He has a contract so if we let him go he gets paid out. I think he gets another job fairly quickly but he’s not going onto something bigger.
 
Lot of people understandably caught up in the romance of Wednesday will be rethinking their position this evening I'm sure

A game we were never expected to win today tbh, but a familiar story regardless on the pitch. We're going nowhere with him
If people are rethinking now what will it be like next season after the first bad defeat or two which will likely be pretty early. Paratici and Vinai aren't going to have his back like Munn had. It would be a madness to continue. Great time for all concerned to shake hands and move on.

The sensible thing is to part by mutual consent and everyone walks away happy.

But his third season comments have now made that much harder.
 
I don't understand, why would I answer that specific question when I'm not even arguing that point? Are you actually reading my posts?

It's obvious CL is more prestigious than EL but WINNING a trophy is seen as a success and trumps all besides all that this isn't my point - you said that Woolwich were a European force, that's what I'm arguing against.

The stupid thing is that this debate kicked off when you said it was much more of an achievement getting to the CL final then it is winning the EL, then proceeded to tie yourself in knots claiming that Woolwich have achieved more than us this season which is downright bullshit and uber weird BTW for someone so desperate to paint such a narrative for us and our rivals, weird.
It's not weird to believe that a club that ended 2nd in the EPL and reached the CL semi after beating Real M. in both games in the quaters, achieved more than a club that ended 17th in the EPL and won a secondary European title.
That does not take away the delight of winning the EL. But outside of Spurs (and Man Utd) few really cared that much. Woolwich's win over Real M. will be seen as a more impressive result.
Personally - and I know many Spurs fans feel the same - I much rather be in the position of Woolwich than Spurs right: ended 2nd in the EPL, reached the semis in the CL after knocking out the favorites, and believing they have a shoot at both the CL and EPL title next year. Would it happen? Most probably not.
Will Spurs be challenging for a EPL title or reaching a CL semi or final? Not impossible the but odds are very low. I am sure most Spurs fans will rather have Spurs end 4-5th next season so they can qualify for the CL rather than end 6-7 and end up in the EL (if they had a choice).
Anyway, believe what you want - you won't change my mind and you won't change yours.
