He’s an arrogant oaf , nearly sixty years of age and it’s obvious that despite him having a ‘ winners mentality’ he’s got no reason to be the arrogant, abrasive fool that he is coming across as.

He’s taking spurs down if he stays, I’ve seen more organised teams playing on Bristol downs on a Sunday morning.
 
You know the Ange fans are full of shit and don't even believe in him themselves since none of the arguments are ever even about the fat prick himself. All the arguments against sacking him are like "oh but who else" and "oh levy" and "oh injuries".

Like there's not one conceivable positive about the guy. Arrogant, self centered, shit tactician, shit man manager, shit eye for talent.

HOW IS HE STILL EVEN HERE?
who else though? I haven't heard a good plan from anyone who wants to sack him right now. I'm all ears.

Also calling him a "fat prick" doesn't help your case trying to sound like the voice of reason
 
I actually fucking am starting to despise some of you lot. Which is probably irrational and stupid as it’s just an internet forum and you’re entitled to opinions & all that.

But still, genuinely rage inducing. Just the same fucking cliche bot statements loss after loss after loss. Like a fucking bot Twitter account.
I do get it, it's tough to see week after week. But at the same time we've seen some outstanding individual performances this season such as the performance at the Etihad. The drop off is too high though as soon as we see injuries or drop in form.

I totally share the frustration, I just don't believe switching managers again will help. I fear it would see just as many losses without the highs when it does go well.

It's not for me to come up with a good plan, or you, or anyone else here. It's for our beloved little scamp of a chairmen and his director of football operations to figure out.

It's not like they're waiting for someone on TFC to come up with a solution before they pull the trigger.
 
i hate the fat cunt more than arteta at this point!

I know today was a tough watch but I still feel like we need to keep faith with Ange.

There are a LOT of injuries to this squad in Key Areas. Forest are also an excellent side who are 3rd in the table for a reason and they were clinical today.

If we get our first choice 11 fit and healthy we are a match for anyone, and we're more exciting to watch than most. I hope Mr Levy decides to give him more time.

The same thing happened last season. The injured players came back and we were still shit. Surely nobody has forgotten what happened 9 months ago?
 
He won't get sacked yet. He'll get the next two at home (Wolves and Newcastle).

We'll probably draw the first and beat the barcodes so he will scrape through to the LC semi final where we get pumped by Pool.

If Ange is hovering around 10th but we're still in Europe and the FA Cup Levy won't sack him.

That said, I don't think he survives falling down to 14th/15th so he will need to pick up the odd league win.

Sad state of affairs really. Glad I haven't been able to watch the last two games.

This is the problem Jim. There is no plan! Iraolo is the most suitable coach and we aren't getting him until the Summer at best!

Sacking Ange and just throwing Mason back in while we interview free agents who we don't really want isn't a solution. Its just looking for a quick fix and quick fixes only set you back further down the line. Give Ange the season, see how bad it gets, and bring in the right man in the summer and go again!
 
Atleast with this style we can also beat anyone on a going day when we have all our players back. I agree that this is totally unsustainable and Ange can't get next season. But atleast for the cups this year, we can beleive that if we get out players back then we can beat anyone on a going day. I don't think any other manager in the world could get us to win 4-0 at the Etihad for example.
This line that we can beat anyone on our day under Big Ange doesn’t exactly stand up to scrutiny. The Top 6 in the league at the moment are Dippers, Chavs, Forest, Woolwich, Newcastle and Bournemouth.

We’ve played all 6 now in the league once this season. We’ve lost all 6 too.
 
But I thought those like me who want ENIC, LEVY and Ange gone and wanting success for our club were the gooners?
There ain't that many Spurs fans who want ENIC out.
Zero turnout for the demo and zero support for the chant at 16 minutes or whatever.
Polls on twitter overwhelmingly support Ange.
So logic would suggest that a lot of the anti-ENIC and anti-Ange rabble on here are not real Spurs fans. Some posters are blatant Gooners on a wind up.
 
makes me laugh when people think a side that are dropping down the table like a lead balloon are somehow going to do something in the cups LOL. we are dropping down the league because we are shit! we arent going to all of a sudden be a competent side in another game of football, just because its a cup game and not a league game.
 
Neither mate. Talk to me. I want whats best for tottenham but I'm left so frustrated.

Please talk to me. Tell me whats up
What's up is we have a pub manager in charge of a squad of players good enough to compete for top 4/5 at a minimum. I've said before, this season was going to be a weird one and it only burns further to think with a competent manager we could have been not only competing for top 4 but an outsider for challenging Liverpool not to say we'd be better.

Instead we have an impostor in charge who's never managed at this level before and it showed clear as day last season and has carried on into this season but you defend it whilst claiming to be "frustrated" despite defending the inexorable slide into the bottom half of the table, even now you're making excuses for injuries which leads to my conclusion that you're either a troll or don't watch/understand this sport.
