Did Brighton have a few players missing? Sane with wolves on Sunday plus they lost 2/3 more during the game.

Interesting post , I’d love nothing more than for Ange to prove me wrong and be as successful as Klopp was, the thing is Klopp needed a new defender and got VVD , Enic would never back a manager like this.
Yes 100%. Some go one as if we are the only club with injuries. I’m sure when we have played some teams this season they have had players out. That’s whether we lost or won. Even in the cup v cov they made loads of changes and we still struggled.
I think he was desperate to leave. Whilst I was happy to let him go, that was on the proviso that a replacement for him was brought in. Had we got Gallagher then fine, but we didn’t.
Tim Sherwood embarassed by Tottenham after manager sack
Tim Sherwood believes Tottenham should be embarassed over a managerial sack decision made and has explained why.
I'm more Welsh than Tom Jones wearing a daffodil hat singing Delilah to a stadium full of brown shoe and blue jeans wearing rugby fans in the millennium stadium, butty boy.
I and I love a chip butty rudeboy!! Seen
Yes it's interesting and unfortunate we'll probably never know if Ange could've worked out. We went into the season terribly underprepared.
At the very minimum, the club should've bought another LCB or LB during the summer window. They decided that 31 year old Ben Davies could cover both.
We were also trying to flog off Spence the entire summer but couldn't find a bidder. Instead of finding backup for Porro, the club decided that 18 year old CM we just bought played at lot of RB in the Championship last season. That should be fine.
Club was crying out for RW cover or even a different option than Johnson. Club decided to go for 19 year old LW Wilson Odobert. Wingers are wingers right? We'll just move him to the RW where he looked completely lost.
Imagine a club that actually buys players to put in their natural position. What a fucking concept.
5 pts last 7 games
one win in 7 (Saints)
outclassed by Fulham at home and then B'mouth and Forest away. Before that by Ipswich at home, and Palace away.
awful awful awful

He needed a striker and they signed the most expensive player of the summer despite having posted the largest annual financial loss in club history the season before.
The difference between Klopp and Ange is:
Klopp made over 300 appearances for Mainz 05, Ange played in Australia.
Klopp managed for 14 years at Mainz and Dortmund, winning the Bundesliga twice (including a double) and getting to a CL final. Ange managed in Australia, Japan, and then the 1 team in a 1 team Scottish league.
Klopp had serious chops (and chompers) when he was appointed, and so when it wasn't working at first there was reason to believe it was Liverpool and not Klopp.
Ange is doing worse than any Spurs manager in the past 15 years. He's accomplished nothing of note previously. There's little reason to believe it's not largely his own fault we're not at least 6th.
Not sure if anyone was listening but Flav of The Fighting Cock was on talksport this afternoon.Just seen talksports opinion on tottenham. Perry groves ex Woolwich and matterface a chelsea fan. Utter cobblers opinion on tottenham. Can only think that Ange might be best man for a club official next summer so not the right time to sack him atm.
Van de Ven is still younger than Virgil when cesspool bought him?

Tim Sherwood should be embarrassed by tim Sherwood.
I'm sorry you had to go through that.
Lots of chatter about how, in our position, we should be focussing on the cups instead of the league now, and this led me to do a little bit of statistical digging around the numbers going back to 2014 (11 seasons). Here’s some data for you….
Before every season there’s always this debate about “what would you prefer, top 4 or a trophy” and the reality is the 2 are linked. As per the data, if you’re in the camp of “who cares about the league we’re doing ok in the cups” you’re ignoring a pretty heavy statistical link between league position and likelihood of winning anything.
You know who wins trophies? It’s not teams that prioritise those cups, it’s really good sides. That’s what we need to be….
- Of the 39 trophies won in that period (11 each in the league, FA cup and League cup, and 6 European trophies), only 7 have been won by sides that finished outside the top 4 in that season
- That equates to just under 18%
- Of those 7, only 3 finished below 6th in the league
- They were Leicester FA Cup in 2021, Woolwich FA Cup in 2020 and West Ham Conference League in 2023 which English clubs should dominate in truth
- This all means that only 7.5% of trophies are won by teams that finish outside the top 6

Levy just gets every football decision wrong doesnt he. This is arguably the most obvious sacking he has had to make in 24 years and yet on we plod. Utter incompetence at its finest.
Think for concussion they would have had to follow protocol anyway.
True very true. At the EOD the best teams normally win the trophies. You may get upsets now and then like we use to see in the FA cup but not so much now. The best teams normally get to latter stages. So if you concentrate on the cups and draw say prime city like we did last yr in 4th round or dippers your cup run is likely to be cut short.
