Management Ange Postecoglou

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Not saying anything else on the bloke. Really bang average in my opinion but I just want him to do better whilst he is our manager.

Beyond that I just don't give a fcuk at this stage.

Club is unfathomable at present.
 
30 games 08/09 16 league. No goals. Not sure how many were subs.
34 games 09/10 23 league games. 3 goals. Again, how many were subs

41 games 10/11 30 league, 7 goals.

So yeah, Bale wasn't a goal machine and wasn't even a regular in the league for the bulk of Redknapp era.
Defoe, Crouch, Adebeyor, Van Der Vart etc all chipped in with plenty. Because we had a decent structure of play where we could attack AND defend.
 
They’re not sticking with him because they want to, it’s because they have to. With the power struggle at the top no one is willing to pay the money to sack him, plus hire another who will be gone in the summer anyway. It’s a mess and it’s not clearing up anytime soon.
This. As negligent though they are and as useless as they are i fail to believe anyone is looking at this useless oaf of a manager and thinking 'yep, this is the guy to lead us forward'. As usual at Tottenham its about money and politics and stuff the football side of things
 
It’s a bit mad isn’t it. All this power I have in my fingers (I’ve often been complimented on my fingering, but not in this way) and my iPhone. From 500 miles away. With a few keystrokes, I can make our side lose matches.

I’m not sure how I’m doing it, but I need to find out how this superpower works. Would be nice so I could reverse it and we could maybe win one or two.

If we do, you’re all welcome. It won’t be an uplift in form, new manager bounce, good luck or any of that bollocks, it’ll be me and my magic fingers.

IF IT WASN'T FOR THOSE PESKY ANGE INNERS WE'D BE SITTING TOP OF THE LEAGUE BY NOW!!!!
 
What power struggle at the top ?
There's a rumour going around (coming from among others George Barrister, who used to pilot the club plane among others) that Lewis wants to sell, but Levy wants to remain on. So there's a process going on in the boardroom of Levy trying to put together a group to buy Lewis out. At least in part.

Could be in reference to that.
 
So many of you set yourselves up for disappointment last night based on the most Spurious ITK ever.

I’m genuinely confused now though. Levy of old would’ve sacked him a month ago. If they stick with him, get him a (good) player, and we somehow come out the other side of this, I’ll have to admit the club (and Levy) will have changed some of my opinions of them.

I get that 90% of this forum have already decided it’s not possible for Ange to come out the other side of this and I’m not going to try and persuade anyone otherwise. That’s on Ange and the team to do that, not me.

Edit: Shoutout Ali Gold btw. That was a very well-written piece that covered the whole deal very well in very few words
Hummmm...they could sign us Mbappe and he takes us to 12 wins out the last 15, seeing us get say P6 plus a trophy...and still I wouldn't change my mind on Levy & his cronies. They're gangsters. They're robbing the club (so us fans) blind. They give zero shit about football, the Spurs family or the community. That's been the case for 25 friggin years. That's how we are on the verge of relegation now...a club mocked by the entire football world, a true laughing stock setting ridiculous world's firsts one after the other.

They don't deserve a get out of jail card. Fuck them. And fuck them again. Those who defend them now or in the future too.

Winning is winning for me.

You stick to your guns and you win, you earned the credit for it.

Does it change the rest of the shit they do? No but that’s a separate issue imo.
 
Absurd. Yep.

If this turns out to be true we deserve to get relegated.

We have used 28 players this season in the PL. even if we sign 5 more I can just see 5 more injuries.

Yesterday sums it up. Richerlison coming back from injury. Clearly fatigued. The answer. Just give him 10 more minutes. What the worst that can happen?

Lankshear instead now has played 10 minutes in total this season in the PL!! 10! When the squad is totally fucked!!

If he was never good enough to play this season why have him as back up??? Just loan him out and get a youngster in we do trust to play.

Levy has turned into some mad gambling bastard.
Troy would've been a lot more use than Lankshear...or Richarlison.
 
get paid millions of pounds when you're 60 and not have to work again? What a tough situation? Maybe the club doesn't want to pay the full amount if there are clauses/performance conditions like cup results in there? Are they placing this on the Chief Football Officer? Cannot believe they bought into this. Would they need to totally clear the decks including coach appointments? Chris Davies did well?
 
I remember last season, it was “just wait for our players to return from injury and we’ll be fine”. They returned and we were still shit. It’ll be the same this season. Ange needs to fucking go
