Same people calling for Glasner who also had a shit start to his Palace career, both managers might I add had the benefit of playing 1 game a week with a load of training sessions I'm between to speed up their philosophies, Frank hasn't had this.
We just got load of impatient numpties in our fanbase who always pledge to give managers time yet when it comes down to it abandon ship the moment we hit a rough patch.
Well obviously none of our current players are as good as peak Dele, Eriksen, Kane, or Son.
Simons right now vs Eriksen at the same point of his Spurs career?
Son vs Odobert, or even Kudus depending on how you want to break this down?
Alli vs Bergval?
Kane's an odd one, because he came through the academy, after a few uninspiring loans maybe expectations weren't that high, once he made it into the first team though he pretty much hit the ground running. None of the current strikers are in any way a like for like comparison as they're at a totally different stage of their career, you can 99% guarantee that none of them will get anywhere near peak Kane at any point.
I don't think it's necessarily as clear cut as it seems, if we're fortunate, 12 months from now Kudus, Simons, Odobert, and whichever striker ends up winning the battle for that spot, could be tearing it up.
Your instincts are impeccable, sir.
They're like a disease.
They pile on Savva's streams -- and pollute social media, in general -- daily, slinging shit at Frank and still defending Ange and pining for him.
It's fascinating and disturbing to watch, in equal measures.
Weirdest phenomenon I've seen at the club.
Really is a cult.
Like, genuinely.
He's been calling them out and now just calls them "Ange fans" and not spurs fans.
Which is what they are.
*I've timestamped it where they start piling in and he gets into it with them, today, but it's worth listening from the beginning, as Savva has been on a rich vein of calling it all out and been doing a great job of highlighting just how irrational they are.

We've lost two matches and drawn three. Played 11 in total, 8 PL, 2CL. 1 EFL Cup.
Nail on the head.
Impatient fuckers who act like a kid with a toy they don’t know how to use. I don’t know what they expect? Are we meant to be top and unbeaten?
I've been patiently waiting since the old stadium closed down and the game changer opened. We came 2nd in the PL in 2016-17 season and 3rd 2017-18 season, those positions haven't been improved on, or even matched.

Yep.
The stadium didn’t deliver anything other than bigger fees paid for average players (a couple aside). Hopefully the new look board will see that and use the money wiser.
You talk some shite mate.
Growing pains, nah this is terror ball. I don't remember the same compassion for Nuno, because he wasn't the hipster choice.
Can we stop using last season as a barometer? That was an anomaly. Also, of you want to go down that road, injuries last season were miles worse than this. Is he a better manager than Ange, obviously. Feels like the wrong fit. Playing like Stoke every game is terrible. When we don't get a win on one of our next few games and we're lingering bottom half, the ambition here is well, it's better than 17th. Insane. Also spent £200m+ in the summer, said he sanctioned the Tel move. He's not the guy to lead us anywhere.
Night and day sure, we've gone from gung ho ball to terror ball. Somewhere in the middle would be fucking nice.
No, no one expects that. But we go out and play like Stoke and have been shite in most games. That's what I don't like.
None of this is on the manager
People moaned it was too attacking under Ange.
People moaned it was too defensive under Mourinho
People moaned it was too boring under Conte
Now people moan it’s too Stoke under Frank.
And none of them lasted very long, did they? Great point.People moaned it was too attacking under Ange.
People moaned it was too defensive under Mourinho
People moaned it was too boring under Conte
Now people moan it’s too Stoke under Frank.
You nailed it, we keep hiring the wrong coaches. Cheers for that.
All the moaning was probably right each time though hahaPeople moaned it was too attacking under Ange.

Now people moan it’s too Stoke under Frank.
It’s alright “mate” . You’re not a spurs fan.
Feel free to get fucked.
Your kind aren’t welcome here.
Yes I know but now we're waiting on Frank doing the business with this team, as I said. I've been waiting patiently, I'm willing to give Frank time, but still been waiting, waiting, and now waiting some more.
Yeah, he really thought he did something there.
