My issues with Ange are that I just don't think we look solid enough under his system to challenge for major trophies.

Spurs won’t look solid enough under any system. They just don’t have the players. Not even Pep could save Spurs with garbage like Sarr, Johnson in the starting XI. Huge question marks also on Bentancur, Bissouma. Kulusevski, Udogie etc. IMO only Vicario, VDV, Son, Maddison perhaps also Porro and Richarlison (as a winger) are good enough to be in a Championship winning team.

The thing with Ange is this. you now have a Championship winning style of football. That’s one of the two variables ticked off. Now you just need to go and find the players. Big question of Ange is weather he is capable of diagnosing the weaknesses in his team and go about disposing of them (ie Sarr).
 
6 out of 10 - solid in the league overall. Disappointing in the cups. Terrified that our form in the second half of the season will carry over into 24/25.

Critical that our bald cunt chairman fully backs Ange - and that Ange gets a set piece coach and has a long think about our defensive solidity and how to break down low block defenses.

Sarr is garbage now?

I’ve seen people get irrational with Johnson but Sarr is a new one

Udogie would be top 3 best young left-backs in Europe. We'll enjoy him whilst we have him.

You're way off the mark with Sarr too.

You don’t rate Romero then.Wow!
 
Got onto Big Ange on the Speed-dial after todays game.

ME G'day Cobber, Howsit hanging? Good win today?

ANGE Yeah, tried a few different things which should work well for next season.

ME Are you happy with your first season? I thought you'd have been going for CL?

ANGE Nah, I always wanted to finish fifth. We're not good enough yet for CL. The last couple of months I've just been keeping an eye on the table and trying different formations.
I kept telling all those Pressers that I wasn't interested in CL. Funny that none of them asked if I was interested in Europa League.

ME So what about Levy/ENIC, are you going to get the players you want for next season?

ANGE I told that bunch of Sheilas, that if they're not going to back me, I'll pack my my bags and go to one of the other mobs. You wouldn't believe the amount of phone calls I'm getting from them.

ME OK, say hello to your missus, Agnes, for me and I'll talk next season.


WHAT A CHAMP.
The first year of his 3 year plan has gone exactly according to schedule.
Next season will be a great one and who knows about season 3.

10/10 Ange
 
I think beating Burnley & Sheff Utd has saved his job.
He has an awful lot of work to do to stop the rot that was setting in toward the end of the season though.

Congrats to him on being the first spurs manager to oversee an entire season since 18/19.
 
First season in the Prem with new players, blooding players in IE Udogie & Sarr after losing Kane getting 5th is decent

Shame about the end of the season but hope he's learned alot in his time

Win us the Europa next season mate
Funny how we are so happy with Fat Carl when his end to this season is so comparable to last seasons car crash under Stellini and Mason.

Nonsense post. And that's all the comment this deserves.
 
Our results vs:

Bottom 7 - 14 Games - 10 Wins, 2 Draws, 2 Losses (32 pts)
Sheffield United (2W), Burnley (2W), Luton (2W), Nottingham Forest (2W), Brentford (1W1D), Everton (1W1D), Wolves (2L)

Middle 6 - 12 Games - 7 Wins, 2 Draws, 2 Losses (23 pts)
Fulham (1W1L), Bournemouth (2W), Brighton (1W1L), Crystal Palace (2W), West Ham United (1D1L), Manchester United (1W1D)

Top 7 - 12 Games - 3 Wins, 2 Draws, 7 Losses (11 pts)
Newcastle (1W1L), Chelsea (2L), Aston Villa (1W,1L), Liverpool (1W1L), Woolwich (1D1L), Manchester City (1D1L)

This was the first year I've thought we did well against the bottom clubs, if only we just showed up against Wolves. If we strengthen properly no reason why we cannot improve against the top of the league. Those 5 defeats in 6 were all against the top teams this season.
 
One thing i noticed today is that almost half our points and half our wins this season come against the bottom 6.

32 pts and 10 wins. Nothing wrong with beating the shit, its a decent trait but a bit concerning that means we have won 10 games against the top 14 teams all season.

Edit: Looks like Zin beat me to it.
