Manager Ange Postecoglou

Surely that should stay between Ange and Mrs Postecoglou?!
not if youre spending 50m on players like johnson and gallagher it wont. poor recruitment can be long term damaging. ask barcelona and man united.

Yeah that was the first thing he shouted, but I thought he went on to shout ‘you, press!’, ‘you, press!’ pointing at Sarr and various others.
Of course it could have been ‘pass!’ or something else.
Could've been "You're piss! ... you're piss!...."
We’ve had precious little to cheer about all season. Those home wins against Man U last August, the Dippers in September and the Robbie Williams lark seem like a long long time ago. Out of both domestic Cups at practically the first hurdle and no European Football (albeit I won’t blame Ange for that).

Love this list. Some surprising results. AVB is in 3rd and he went on to become one of our most loathed managers in recent history. Both Redknapp and Poch are behind him. The two trophy winners are rock bottom.
We all knew him not taking the league cup seriously would bite him in the arse. There's no way our players (and fanbase) would already be "lacking belief" if we actually went as far as we could have gone with it. He consciously picked an inferior squad thinking it was beneath his league ambitions. That one's on him for sure, it could have completely changed our season.
Conte joined picking up from Nuno who had lost 5 in the league already and had to deal with stupid extra European games too.
Ok if you keep changing managers and the outcome is the same then whose fault is it?
The concern is the team not improving under Postecoglou as the season has gone on. That's on him and makes him a risk going forward.
On the other hand this player list has a ceiling of top 5-8 with any any manager you get in.
I think he's one of the best motivators going around. His previous squads would have run through brick walls for him. That its not happening suggests some players are not buying in, and is exactly what Postecoglou has said is happening. Some players would know they're targetted for not being around next season and may not agree with that.
Who goes- him or them?
2-3 important signings would see this squad really push on next year. city aint going to be the same, the signs are already there and they have this charge thing coming back at them. the scum are in pole position for next year and i dont think they are that great.
problem is we need a manager that actually knows what hes doing.
Since game 10, we’ve picked up 34 league points out of 72 in 24 league games. For a bit of context, In that same timeframe from Game 11 onwards, Everton have picked up 35 points and that includes a record 13 league games without a win over a near 4 month period from mid December to early April.
24 league games is a long period of time. It’s essentially two thirds of a season, 6 months. It is alarming how we have shown no signs of improvement in so long and how just about every team in the league can counteract us. Ange is going to get next season, the start of it at least anyway. I have seen absolutely nothing from him all season though that convinces me other than he’s out of his depth. There’s a reason why he’s pushing 60 and has only managed in the likes of Australia, Japan and Scotland.
Teams have not slowed us down. It’s that we take forever to get the ball forward. The CBs and goalie have to have 50 touches first. The FBs run forward into positions they are never gonna get the ball and just crowd the space so offering no out ball from the CBs. It’s easy for oppo to get back into position.
Knackered because Ange´s NEW system is extremely demanding fitness wise as has been reported!
Next season we should be used to it
And i´m real!

Very tough draws though , City are in the final , so nobodies managed to stop them and Fulham away is a tricky game especially as Ange was still trying out players because of our ridiculous pre- season schedule. Need to bear all this in mind.
He's showing blind faith in Bisoumma despite him almost never passing the ball forward. What did he expect ?
Needs to stop the bleeding v Liverpool. Even a narrow loss can be accepted give its Anfield. But if we get slapped up then the pressure will go up a level higher than it already is.
I still have faith in Ange. He's the first manager I've liked in a long while and whatever problems we've got, he'll sort them out.
The problems we're seeing now are the same problems that have been dogging us for the last five years. It's not a situation that's going to fix itself overnight but with Ange I feel we have someone who is determined to change things and be successful. I never felt that with Mourinho, Nuno or Conte.

a defeat of more than 2 goals is a sign hes probably lost the dressing room. i think hes lost some of them already, more will follow i reckon.
