First post here, the only Spurs place online that seems to see past the charlatan's words. Hope he's sacked.
Welcome to the forum.

Love your profile pic, btw. ...'Red card for Levy'

this was absolutely bizarre

Gray has actually been pretty decent at CB and suddenly hes shifted out to RB? Just... why? Spence is a RB and Davies is a LB? Why?
Or reg at LB he is sitting there doing f all and Ange will say we have no players. He does have player but doesn’t use them unless he really has to. Why could adeji come on yday . He showed more in that 15 mins v Efsborg than kulu and son did last night.
 
I’m not sure why you get banned, I’ve yet to see anything particularly offensive. The people you’re beefing with are here looking for a ruck. I don’t see why you get the can when you’re just giving them what they asked for.
We'd have better insight if foul votes were public...most probably the same folks time & again...alas, admin feels that such petty cowardice should be afforded anonymity...his call...
 
Lol no we weren't. We finished 5th.

We finished in relegation form. After the first ten games, we collected 44 points from 32 fixtures. That is not enough for 5th. For many of those games we had our first team fit and better preparation time. This season is a continuation of that poor form. In fact no team had even finished outside the top 4 with the start we had.

62 games thus far - 28 wins, 9 draws, 25 losses. 122 GF, 98 GA. Whichever way you look at it, it sucks.

We got lured into the PR of a "rebuild" to deflect from Danny Boy, and it's backfired spectacularly.

I don't know about that. I expected Ange to start last season the way he is doing now. I expected us to finish around 14th last season.

I didn't think top 6 was likely given our chairman just sold our best ever home grown talent and sacked our most elite manager.

I still think if Ange wins a trophy this season he'll be doing a good enough job. The problem is when he doesn't, there was no point in us sacking Poch or Conte etc.
 
Im of the opinion that the board didnt want to sack him in january in case any potential signings were scared of by the fact that we didnt have a manager. Lets see but the report now that there will be a decision on his future after the Villa game is a complete contrast to what we were getting before.
Yup, there's been nothing but 100% backing. I did hear a whisper that he was going to be "assessed" after the Liverpool game, but then we beat Brentford before that point, so maybe that got shunted? I never really understood the result by result decision making process however.

You are forgetting that we managed to upgrade our defence with the introduction of Udogie and signing of Van Der Ven and signing a creative midfielder.Kane was amazing but we were over reliant on him to get us out of a hole. While this season everyone looks tired and there is no belief or structure.

Vicario and VdV did better than I expected. So did the Maddison Son combo and the defensive mid. Nevertheless, I don't believe that our points per game would increase significantly if they were all fit. We struggled second half of last season with everybody available.
