Manager Ange Postecoglou

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

The medical department was changed a year and a half into Ange's reign started, so already with the massive increase in injuries, and after a massive argument between the physio and Ange, where Geoff Scott who had been with us for 20 years, and never seen injury turnover like this, basically blamed Ange's methods and workloads for the increases

Could be BS but if the medical team were getting diagnosis wrong and not good enough, that’s not on Ange

I did chuckle though...
 
So you're not a Spurs fan and blatantly don't know much about Spurs or the PL, but you feel qualified to opine in such certain terms.

So you don’t know me, blatantly don’t know much about what I know about Spurs or the PL, but you feel qualified to opine in such certain terms.

There has been no evidence, at all, that Ange will not be manager of Spurs for next season.

So yes, I will confidently say he will be, until an actual club source said otherwise.
 
Can we actually find out what’s happening one way or the other?

It’s gone completely quiet since Sunday
He's on holiday Carrie, highly unlikely that we'll hear anything until he's back.

If the club are looking to replace him, that'll be done behind closed doors. I don't expect to hear anything about his position for at least a couple of weeks. This doesn't preclude us making moves for players either. It's been Lange that's been meeting with players, clubs and representatives, with AP just doing the phone call bit to get it over the line in the main.
 
because he's a thin skinned asshole. it's not that hard to understand. and once again you and your ilk have to resort to personal attacks and insults. also not hard to see why you like ange so much.

If you can retain just a few more seconds of memory to recall my previous posts you replied to, and if you’d like, all the ones before that.

There are no personal insults.

I simply flipped your insults below, back at you.

sorry i don't engage in magical thinking hypotheticals that you lot love to trot out. i'll cross the two trophies bridge next year when it happens. i will tell you, i'll still think he's an absolute cunt of a man.


Do you not even see the irony of calling someone an ‘asshole’ and a ‘cunt of a man’, followed by ‘you and your ilk have to resort to personal attacks and insults’.
 
Fuck me, there’s some stupid cunts on here, that gaslighting fraud is the worst manager I have seen at this club, always talking about a winning mentality and then loosing a record number of games, you couldn’t make it up.

The really sad thing is the lowering of expectations, I can’t remember the last time I went to a game expecting us to win because ‘that’s who we are mate!’ A soft touch with a manger so fixed to a way of playing that has been totally found out and negated

I’m grateful for the trophy but I wish he would now kindly fuck off and leave the job to someone who at least looks like the know what they are doing
 
Lol...



That's one of many similar posts in the last 15 pages from the usual suspects. there's even one guy who is so disgusted at finishing 17th he shits on the idea of winning Champion's League trophies.

you people man... :roflmao:
For a start, don't "you people man" me, pal.

Instead of looking for a fight or comparing me with someone who shits on the CL, maybe you actually should read my posts and try & understand my rationale. But maybe balanced views aren't your thing.
 
Genuinely worried if we sack him these we wipe fans gonna be baying for blood for the next man who has to pick up this mess.

Whoever comes in, is going to get a raw deal from these Ange fanboys.

It's like we have to keep him, just to throw away next season to show that he's even more out of his depth.
 
17th or 6th - what's the difference? £33.4 million is the difference or 2 NFL games and 1 Beyonce concert... but what 6th didn't get you is the opportunity to play Champions League football by winning the Europa League but I'm guessing 6th, no trophy and Europa League qualification is you're preferred option. With our depleted squad, Ange made a decision. He felt that we couldn't fight on all fronts so he cut his cloth and it paid off. I saw someone, maybe it was you argue that Newcastle did both. Won a trophy and finished in the Champions League place. They did do exactly that, but they did it without having to play European football so they had no tough decisions to make on what to sacrifice so it's not a true reflection. Look at the year before... Newcastle played Champions League and finished bottom of their group, finished 7th in the league and didn't make it past the QF of both domestic cups largely due to the fact Eddie Howe tried to prioritise the Champions League but by doing them, their early league form suffered. My guess is that you think that is a good season.
6th to 17th, the difference is being pretty good to just plain sucking. They made the right decision to concentrate on Europa, but the league form was still inexcusable. Howe would never have done so badly.
 
Watch the Amazon documentary for a refresher if you want to remember.

Under Conte we had serious injury problems, Richy being the chief example. Ange didn't create Richy's chronic injury problems.

Poch = loads of injuries, especially at the start. He had them at Chelsea too btw. This has been discussed.
It's just invented reality at this point. Decided to dig into that claim and do some fact checking.
The only evidence I've found on transfermarkt of injuries to every squad player in 2014/15 (Poch's first season, fair to say "the start) are; Bentaleb (Ankle) Walker (surgery from a pre-season injury) Davies (shoulder) Mason (Hamstring) Lamela (Calf) Lloris (knee). All of those were short lay-offs bar Walker but hardly seems fair to pin that on Poch, and oh! look! Only 2 muscular injuries! In fact Lamela's best period of availability for Tottenham Hotspur after his cursed first season were Poch's first two seasons.

Can you tell me with a straight face that 6 injuries over the course of an entire season amounts to "loads"? Who have you been discussing this with? The ministry of utter bollocks?
