League form is far more indicative than a farmers cup.
I found winning the Europa League exciting but maybe you haven't been a Spurs fan long enough to appreciate how special the night in Bilbao was... I found finishing 5th last year exciting... I didn't find finishing 17th exciting. In fact I hated it... almost as much as I would hate finishing 9th, 13th, 16th and 10th and being knocked out of the domestic cups before they even get going.Mate we finished 17th and lost twice as many home games as we won. If you found scrabbling around the bottom of the table "exciting" then I don't know what else to say.
Well it’s nearer the start than the end in my book!
lol so we are now calling the Europa League a farmers cup?
He finished 5th during the season when that was the squad he had
That was your mates signing that was.Or we can bring back Werner on loan and give him 190k a week! Tough choice

I'm not supporting Frank as the best manager around or even the best we could get.No I'm good... you carry on drinking the Frank CoolAid... not debating with anyone who tries to compare Jol, Poch and Redknapp with Frank... absolute clown!!!
Handles the other way round, opening at the bottom, etc
I really don't care which we go lol I've got no affiliation with Ange.
Probably, if we keep him, and the exit of the CL in the first phase is guaranteed too.
I'm sorry but this is bullshit. We're fucking Spurs, there is no other club of our size which would accept finishing 17th, 18 points behind Brentford then hide behind European competition being the reason. That's just a copout. Big clubs deal with being in Europe year in year out, it's a tragic excuse.
also lots of pointy edges with poison
He won the Asia Cup... which I am sure you will laugh at and degrade but when you consider the players he had at his disposal was a huge achievement. J League is very competitive but again, you will degrade this as micky mouse no doubt even though Japan regularly qualify for the World Cup Finals. Don't know much about A-League but I think you are belittling his achievements in Scotland a bit by saying a cactus could win the the treble there especially when you start your post with lets be serious here... just saying...And let's be serious here.
What "accomplishment" had Ange "achieved" before coming to Spurs?
Serious question.
What even IS a trophy in Australia? I'd say utterly irrelevant. Like a non-league cup winning coach over here.
Treble with Celtic? Who cares. A cactus could do that.
The 1st 10 games are gone now.
He will NEVER repeat that form.
It's not just Europe that made us so shit this season, it was headed this way last season and carried on EXACTLY how we expected.
The only way to get worse now is to get relegated.
DebateableI'm not supporting Frank as the best manager around or even the best we could get.
But he is better than Ange.
