Manager Ange Postecoglou

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

A squad missing 6 of their starting 11 played a game every 3.5 days for nearly 3 months. No break. No training. Play, record. Play recover.

By mid Feb they were fucked, tired and burnt out.

A decision has to be made. Win a trophy and qualify for ECL or fight for 6th.

No coach in the history of the premier league has had to deal with this number of injuries to their primary players.

Ange has earned our respect. Put this club back on the pedestal and given this group of players the belief that they can win.

It's not a case of "will Ange get sacked"....it's a case of will Ange stick with Spurs. There is not a single club in world football that wouldn't jump at the chance to hire a guaranteed winner.

Yeah like Ange's masterclass won us the EL 🤣

Right, he luckily beat the same team 4 times this season.

A 90 game of football that involves 100's if not 1000+ touches of the football by 22+ different players, involving hundreds of actions, is nothing to do with luck, and when you extrapolate that over 4x the games, luck has absolutely nothing to do with it - primarily because luck doesn't exist.

What we have here is someone who is so entrenched in their worldview and dislike for another human being that didn't win them enough football games, that they convince themselves of something that fits into that view, regardless of how completely unrealistic and idiotic it is.

The general consensus from the entire football world, except for bitter, weird spurs fans is that Ange coached us to victory.

Back from your hol's Ange.

Pep says ‘Hi!’

:ange-arms:

On that basis you’d take Ange over Pep?!

You are comparing Pep, who has achieved everything in the game and has proven how tactically astute he is time and time and time again to Thomas Frank who 'kept brentford up around the top half a few times'

FML

Yeah but you’re claiming Ange beating Frank means everything?!

Sherwood beat Poch!

Proves nothing!

I mean, it proves that Frank could not set his team up to beat Ange on 4 occasions.

Nothing more, nothing less.

Sherwood relied on an OG and a last-minute worldie from Siggurdson to beat Poch - they weren't comprehensive victories, and the Ange vs Frank sample size is 2x

Franks Brentford side have looked shit against us every time they played us the last two season except the very first one of Ange game in charge.

The luck is in the fact we played absolutely nobody who was actually good you absolute fruitcake. 16th in the prem. In a final. THAT is luck.

Considering where Ange has come from, the things he’s won in every country he’s been and the fact he’s now finished 5th, then won a major European trophy… at Tottenham Hotspur!!

Then compare that with Frank who comes from a traditional football country, is yet to win anything and had a much easier route to the PL,

Ange and Frank’s careers aren’t even remotely comparable. Frank is a million miles behind. Different hemisphere, literally and figuratively

Lol Frank has his team punching miles above its weight and finished above Ange with a fraction of the resources. Has never won anything? You clown. What he won at championship level is a higher level than anything Ange had won prior to the Europa league.

Which Frank was never going to win managing fucking Brentford. He did beat the best opponent we beat to win it, like a week before we did.

Was literally just saying this to my hairdresser :cautious:
 
well you could look at the PL table. A tiny budget and he finishes 10th, and Ange the clown in charge of the 8th richest team in the world and finishes 17th.

but hey we doubled them so all's good in the Ange world

PL table doesnt lie

and as someone else said here Tactics Tim doubled Poch. So that makes Poch look bad generally? Or just on 2 occasions? Or not at all?
So Brentford finished 10th playing a total of 43 games and had 26 injuries costing a total of 1,027 missed days.
Spurs on the other hand played a total of 60 games and had 41 injuries costing a total of 1,553 missed days.
If you can't see the context, I give up... I want Ange replaced... but I'm not prepared to fabricate reasons why he should be replaced by a journeyman who is tasked with not getting relegated every season.
