Management Ange Postecoglou

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Postecoglou's fighting for his professional survival, as anyone in that situation likely would. The one strand of the rope left is the Europa League title. That said, nothing about his approach or system changes if Spurs win Europa. Maybe he'll moderate a few things but the odds are that if he returns the midfield will still get overrun, the defending will be sketchy, and Spurs will turn over the ball too frequently. His penchant for press conferences as self-indulgent performance art won't change, either. Unfortunately, he may well be brought back.

and that right there is the essence that's made us have this chance imo, he is under massive pressure to win it. alot of it he probably put upon himself to not go out as the worst spurs manager of all time., same holds true for the players

but that pressure to win is what we have always missed. as Conte said life is easy here a tottenham, and we dont want to play under any pressure.

One more game to go!

Rubbish, we have performed well in most cup games this season. The most underhanded compliment ever.
 
Nah, Coventry, Tamworth, Anfield, Villa, Gala away, Rangers away, AZ away, there have been some truly shocking displays in the cups this season. Some good ones too but not that many.
Ehh Coventry 2-1, Tamworth 3-0, Gala we got red carded and lost by 1 goal, Rangers was a draw, AZ their only goal was an own goal.

Hardly 'truly shocking' this is whilst we were hammered by injury and continue to be.
 
If we win the final - I still think the odds are he will start next season as manager.
Which is something I have mixed feelings about. It would make some sense to let him learn from his mistakes - and he has developed a siege mentality.

But our attacking plays is often dire - it mainly was tonight.
 
Look at this this way... if he ends up staying it will be a mistake that will be rectified very quickly (I hope) - they didnt mess about with Ramos, Nuno etc when the results were crap in the league. Im absolutely sure hes only still here due to some contractual clause about being in a major competition, and IF (IF!) we win and ENIC get their golden CL money they wont give two fucks about putting him out to pasture, as their goal of MONEY will be achieved
