Manager Ange Postecoglou

[Robba]

Clearly Angeball isn't being played in the EL and that's been a good thing. I will never understand why he couldn't change up tactics dependent on the opponent. Things would be so much different now.

Funny thing is Angeball isn't a travesty against the right kind of opponent. It can actually be very surprising and devastating to that opponent.

The even funnier thing is that one such opponent that Angeball has worked against is none other than Man U. Oh the irony.

If only this guy didn't have it in his noggin that versatility was weakness, where could he and indeed we be?

Our players could well let the pressure get to them, or United just keep fouling Maddison until he goes off injured and our attacking play is then significantly weakened.

Let’s just kick fuck out of Bruno F so the same happens to them. Pretty much a one man team.

He's still here then?

Could someone explain how we are the 8th richest club in Europe, maybe the world but still have to sell to buy this summer.

Tottenham’s transfer debt is dangerously high​

Football.London have now explained that Tottenham Hotspur find themselves in this difficult position due to their increasing transfer debt.

The outlet explains that most of their transfers have been done on credit in recent years, with Tottenham’s transfer payables (the money owed to clubs on players they have already signed) currently standing at a whopping £337m.

In that metric, Spurs are second only to London rivals Chelsea, who have accumulated a transfer debt of £479m.

As a result, Tottenham have been eating into their cash reserve, which has gone down from £198m at the financial year ending in 2023 to just £79m as of March 31, 2024.

It is suggested that Spurs will not want to continue adding to their transfer debt and would thus have to operate smartly this summer by selling players before they can buy.

Tottenham eat into cash reserves after accumulating £337m in transfer debts

Tottenham Hotspur have accumulated a huge £337m in unpaid transfer payables which could hamstring their summer window.

Revenue does not include expense, so it's not deducted when you see the 8th richest club figure, that's basically just income.

He’s a hot head as well. When we’ve played them he can’t handle Maddison and it does his head in

Credit where credit due, Ange mixed up.his tactics last night and it completely miffed BG in the first half.
He did something he has rarely done by playing tactics and a lineup that took into consideration the opposition

I totally agree with the sentiment that if we win the Europa League, it won’t be due to Ange’s managerial prowess; it’ll be down to the players’ commitment, motivation and their desire to win something. They’ll be the ones dragging this team across the finish line, not him.

As far as I’m concerned, the Premier League is the true barometer of a manager’s quality. It’s the ultimate test of consistency, tactical acumen, and the ability to motivate and adapt. And on all those fronts, Ange has failed massively, I would even say he is one of the worst managers I have ever seen in the PL’s history tbh.

Let’s not allow a potential trophy to rewrite the narrative here and allow emotions to cloud reality.

The last thing this club should do is make the colossal mistake of keeping him on next season, regardless of any silverware he may fluke himself into.

This is ridiculous sorry, because last night everyone was ready to jump on him due to his "weird" team selection in which he clearly planned for Bodo which was to physically out do them and it worked, that's not on the players...they didn't pick the team, the manager did.

You can want the manage gone but acknowledge that he's not a good coach and not right for the club...you're allowed to hold two schools of thought.it's okay.

Lets be fair in our appraisal just like our with our criticism.

Funny isn't it. There's a few different types of fans on here:

- Fans that want us to lose because they hate Ange

- Fans that want us to win, but when we do they make excuses for it (opposition were weak, had injuries etc.) Because they hate Ange

- Fans that want us to win, but when we do make statements about it 'being in spite of Ange', 'the players won that, not Ange' - Because they hate Ange

- Then there's the fans that analyse the performance and acknowledge that Ange may have got that one right. Even in the horror season we've had, and even if they dislike him, he may deserve credit for getting that one right at least.
(These people are labelled rats for taking a analytical view instead of an over-emotional, spiteful one)

I am Ange out btw, but I hope we win the EL, and if we do because of his tactical decisions then I'll certainly give him the acknowledgement he would deserve.

 

[Ange67]

Said months ago had feeling would win EL...like Ange and listening to players they still think he's good manager...he's made mistakes and wouldn't surprise me if got sack but new manager, same players, same board, same chairman...can't be anywhere near position in league again but I would stick and give one more chance

Ange is almost certainly past the point of no return now but people need to let that go and enjoy the ride.

You can credit Ange for having a plan that worked against Bodo and not have to discus his future every second of the day.

I’m hoping we win the EL and that means Ange will have won the EL. I want him to cup his ear to the fans with the trophy in his hand and ride off into the sunset. He’ll get another job and Spurs fans will be happy that a new manager is coming in to manage a squad that knows how to win trophies.

Sorry but this is the highest level of football and we can’t defend for shit. We score some really beautiful goals under him but playing like this even with RM will get you close to relegation.

 

[Spuraman]

Is he a born and bred auntie? If he is then we should not have hired him. It's not rugby or cricket it's soccer matey.

M8 I agree and only in job because of EL but at same time not won anything in years now...we win for first time in years also in CL next year only my opinion but give chance early on next season to see if has gained experience of league

 

[ChrissyWaddleShares]

Relegation scrap if he stays on next season.

IF he wins and stays on, he’ll be gone before Christmas if there’s any sign of a similar season and any available ‘steady hand’ brought in, whatever the cost (see Redknapp, Conte). No way this happens for a second consecutive season - especially not if Fabio IS back whispering sweet nothings to DL.

Too much risk of getting absolutely hammered week-in, week-out in CL and the loss of revenue from that. Levy’s gambled loss of Prem revenue against CL qualification money this year. If he stays and there’s any signs of the fuck-ups carrying on, he’ll be gone - probably by first international break.
