Management Ange Postecoglou

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

We can give him as long as he wants. He’s a fucking shit manager, it’s blindingly obvious from 2 PL seasons. He’s been fucking abysmal after that first 10 games.

But he won a trophy so some people want to suck him off because they’re stupid and think that makes him a good manager. No, it just makes him in the latest in a long line of shit managers who have won a trophy.

The right move is to say thanks very much and fuck off. The alternative is to keep him until he proves again how fucking shit he is. Then sack him. I hope we make the right move…

Spot on and if you think about it the win makes us a much more enticing prospect ECL place decent budget clean slate. I honestly think ambitious young coach would fancy a run at this. We could offer a coach the chance of a trophy in early August if we move quick.
 
Keeping him now only to sack midway into next season would be extremely costly purely from a financial standpoint as well, in addition to possibly writing a season off.

There's a decent chance that by the time he gets the sack, somewhere around Christmas let's say, we'd already be out of the CL while sitting at the bottom half of the league table. On top of that he'd also be getting his payout, so it's not like we'd be saving money on that front either.

Keeping him is not the nothing-to-lose-everything-to-gain move that it might initially seem. It's fraught with danger in fact.

Isn't it all just bizarre? Postecoglou is blunt and plain spoken. Why would he not of already been talking to the team about next season? Think back to the Netflix documentary when Mourinho was there. Levy was constantly communicating with Jose. I don't imagine that has changed. I think there's been a lot more communication that anyone is saying. I'm guessing Postecoglou was told he wouldn't be coming back next season and is now leveraging the cup win to force the team to keep him.

I agree with this, so bored with losing almost every week.
In fact, can't remember the last game the club won in the league.
Winning the EL has just put a plaster on the problem, when you look at the majority of teams we have faced this season, they have been out-coached by nearly everyone.
This is no way good enough for the clubs level of status, he should be gone really but, i fear he will talk himself into staying and with a new contract.
Come October/November levy will be relieving him of his duties.

I really coudnt see him making it to Christmas. A handful of bad results and those doing the Ange hokey cokey will flip flop again. No Munn there to hide behind, i'd guess September or October. There is just no evidence results or performances will improve. In the 24 games against the top 12 this season we lost 18, its the same as last season, we just barely ever beat good or even semi decent teams.
 
I don't know what the club is going to do.

Been a crazy season the highs of winning the Europa league to the lows of the prem performancs/form.

What the fuck has happened to "Angeball"... Looks like that been completely abandoned, which makes the whole thing even more of a mess as whatever he was trying to install has basically been torn up.

One thing I do know is all the arguments for him staying because he won Europa league.... There is an argument that he should never have even been given the opportunity to get to the final based on our league form.

Well it has though hasn't it? Since then, he's hired a number of "footballing men" everyone was clamouring for. A few layers of so called "football experts".

The result? We've regressed back to 90s in the league and 80s in the UEFA. :ange-hmm:


I mean, I know why, but simultaneously I also don't know why people keep ignoring all of the people who actually make these decisions. I bet you Levy could be 6 foot under and full of worms and people would still be talking about him like he's Elvis or Tupac, and secretly running the club after faking his death
 
I do think it's criminal how we've sacked off the league. It's an insult to the fans who pay their hard earned to go and watch, travelling, staying over etc. Look at Palace, won the fa cup last weekend, first ever major trophy, hammered us in the lead up, won the thing, 3 days later turned wolves over. Gave Liverpool a game today.

It's so unprofessional and downright embarrassing how we have behaved as a club leading up to the final. And since tbh. It comes across very small time. I also find it quite incredible how many fans are accepting of it too.

We finished 17th. There are no signs it's getting better. Ange, thank you for your part in Wednesday, but we should move on.
