AVB did have prime Bale to help him out.

No one in the prem will touch Ange with a barge pole once we come to our senses and kick his arse out the door
Hes taken 4pts in 18.
With Newcastle, Liverpool and Woolwich next.

It's not like Potter is some defensive bulwark either. He's a manager with an attacking mindset. He's just very structured.
That's something that we need to be quite frank. Structure. Our current style of play is the definition of balls to the wall. But it is disjointed and lacking in a patterns, plan and ideas. Which has been my main gripe with Ange biting back at the "please change things" questions.
No one is asking him to become Tony Pulis, just that he tweaks his tactics so that he can still follow his philosophy without running everyone into the ground.
You really think any club in their right mind evaluates a manager based on how they get on at Spurs.
Nuno just humiliated us and by us I mean every Spurs fan who hounded him out. Conte will win silverware at Napoli as well, laughing in our faces the whole time.
The irony of your brand of posting and still being naive enough to type that out. Do you not know which club you support?
Why? The obvious need to pivot and bring a manager who has a fucking clue shows at least we care. Where has Southgate come from no club would touch him with a barge pole.
AVB had solid tactics and was working through a massive tactical transition and cultural squad overhaul. Without AVB, Poch doesn't have success as quickly as he did.
Poch was the best manager hire we ever made, because we found someone that did a lot of the same things as AVB tactically, but added what was missing. It showed foresight and planning.
We need the same sort of appointment now.
Nobody bigger than a Palace touches him. He's been our worst manager in 15+ years. Spurs haven't been in this part of the table for any longer than a couple of weeks for years. This is a special level of incompetence - we are in legitimately trouble of getting sucked in to a relegation fight.
Nuno deserved to fucking go, stop this shit please. He's a nice guy doing a good job at a club he suits but he was never going to succeed here, we almost immediately got better under Conte and achieved 4th. Conte is obviously a good coach, he got sacked cos he got sick of the board not because he had us in fucking 11th going on 14th.
I can guarantee you no Premier League side will give this fraud a chance.
AVB had his pluses but I think you're reaching with the Poch comparison; AVB was too wedded to a system and inflexible (a bit like Ange) but with defensive instincts. I felt Bale helped him out and he was exposed quickly once he left.
Poch was obviously amazing and no argument there from me.
Your not allowed to point this out. Thus enabling people who don't care to make facile points about a bloke who has just arrived. Meanwhile by every metric we are getting worse.
I think AvB’s main problem was that all the players thought he was a complete dickhead.
Our fourth 1-0 loss of the season, with a few batterings at home for good measure.
"We're asking too much of our players" - I think we're asking too much of you, Ange. This squad has very competent parts and should be performing at a much greater sum. Use the tools at your disposal.
Should not be getting another transfer window. Having better players only goes so far when your gameplan is so predictable.

Who has done that?
We need Xabi Alonso or Nagelsmann to get even the slightest hope of success at this club but Levy could never persuade them
We will see. Cuti seems to want out anyway. So is best gone. Rest will stay.
1 battering at home
At risk of getting pelted. I think that Potter could work.
The squad is not that far off being set up for his 3 at the back. He will want to attack like Ange, but with more structure and control.
