Nail on the head there. There is zero evidence to suggest things will improve given more time just some vague hope. This form and downward trajectory will just bleed into next season, like it did with Hoddle, Ramos and Pochs final year

People never learn mate.
Nagelsmann is a complete penis. It would be a spectacular failure.
Still a level above Celtic/SPL
Just give the gig to Mason and be done with it
Our attack for the last 24 games.
- Player gets the ball in an advanced position on the outside of the box
- Stops and turns around
- Passes ball to a player outside of the centre of the box
- Sloppy touch
- Hurried pass to another player outside of the box
- Stops and turns around
- Passes the ball to other player outside of the box
*loses possession*
It's the same shit every fucking game. Teams just sit back and put men behind the ball knowing fully well that we're going nowhere and will eventually fuck up and lose possession.
How we have gone this length of time with no tactical changes is beyond me.

They said the same when we hired Mourhino and then again with Conte
And as you say, Nagelsmann won't come and already ruled us out before Postecoglou.
And even if he were to come - do we seriously want another manager who thinks he's doing us some kind of favour by being our manager.
He'd probably get the respect of the players. And up their game. But no top manager will work out with Levy long term.
Can you remember how the opposition used to not bother marking Winks as he did more damage to our team when he had the ball than when he didn’t?
It’s getting close to that with our wingers. The opposition don’t bother closing Johnson or Son down. Just hold their shape and let them bumble along pointlessly.
Maddison is the only player that our opponents pay any attention to.
Because our manager only has one way of playing. He's stubborn to the point of madness. Apparently his one and only tactic worked really well against Kilmarnock and because of that it should work against Pep's City.
A normal football manager will tweak their system and tactics to suit the opposition. Not Ange, he thinks that because he was able to tactically outwit such footballing powerhouses such as Queen of the fucking South, he never needs to change a thing.
We couldn't get Nagelsmann
I wanted us to try but he clearly asked for something we wouldn't give.
Ange is the only one mad enough to risk his career on this shit show scam that Levy has running.
That is over-simplifying the problem and just a part of the predicament.
Spurs are weak at defending on the counter and weak at defending set-pieces. So teams simply sit back and let Spurs have the ball and hit them on the counter and/or set-pieces - which makes it (much) harder for the attacker to produce.
And this Spursy way of defending affects the mentality of the whole team.
Even Barca at their peak tiki taka footy era - with the likes of Ronaldinho, Neymar Messi, Suarez in attack and Xavi & Iniesta in CM - struggled to create many chances/goals against parked buses.
Thats a 50pt season. He wont last beyond May IMO
Yeah nagelsmann was my first choice also but he rightly ran for the hills.
As Conte said, the club always looks to disrupt the figure of the manager, and protect the other things.
Ange just needs to given time, if there's no improvement or things are worse by this time next season then fair enough.
Judging by what I see on social media, it is just the loud minority of fans that want him out

Not even bothering to look on socials but after losing twice to that Chelsea team, he's asking for it.
imagine them doing the double over us this year. This club hates its fans.
