That's indeed perfect for Levy. Next season when we finish between P10-12 after he picked an average manager and spent £3.47 on incomings, he can say we've progressed post-Ange, that we're on the up, things looking promising for the future etc.

Fuck Ange off today, give it to Redknapp/Dyche/Poch/Big Issue seller/my dead Nan, win the cup. Levy & his gang fuck off the very next day.
Even better.
With you on Sonny.
Vicario can fuck right off.
Madders doesn't have the shoulders.
Bring a proper leader in.
Is Madders out for the season?
That idea we'd have surged up the table and finished in the top 6-8 with our first 11 available more often is nothing but a myth.
I'm more interested in him being out the door in the summer. He can go back to a Leicester type team.
There is a stat going around that we have a great record with our first choice back five, so it may hold some water. However a plan that is dependent on five players being fit to play every game has its obvious flaws.
He's still here then?
He's found one bud.
There’s others I’d get rid of before him starting with Biss
Small sample IIRC, but that worked with nuggets like harry7 , sudoku & co.
A week or so ago I posted a list of games when we had all or most of our players available...and we still shat the bed.
Injuries played a part in this utterly atrocious season, but they're still way behind the gross negligence & sheer incompetence of Levy, Munn, Lange, Ange & the Jedinak boys, the players.
Madders, Biss, Richy, Romero, Vicario, Udogie, Bentancur...I'd throw them all off a cliff without blinking. They are so not COYS (despite Maddison talking the talk).
Dragusin, Micky, Sarr, Brennan & Kulu too, though to a lesser degree. At a stretch I might even consider giving them another shot under new, competent management.
Jury very much still out on Kinsky, Archie, Djed, Odobert...could become decent rotation players, but really don't see elite potential there.
Porro, Danso, Bergvall, Dom...they're limited at the top level, but they'll always give you 110%. True club guys. Decent blokes off the pitch. That's a proper leadership group.
There's also the question of whether, with this style of football, we'll ever be able to keep those players healthy for any considerable stretch of the season.
Not that they’ll care but I still haven’t renewed my season ticket. I’m just finding it so hard to justify continuing because this doesn’t even feel like we’ve hit the bottom yet.
Have we not comprehensively answered that question this year?
I just don’t get how he survived that, europa league or not. This season has made no sense to me.
I think it’s something like 16 wins from 22 games? Something along those lines. And there’s always going to be half a dozen games a season where we shit the bed, no matter how “good” a season we’re having, so that may explain away a number on your list.
That’ll be the flaw in the plan I was talking about. It was ok at Celtic, as their reserves were still better than most other first teams. Don’t have that here though.
Fair enough. But end of the day, I think the results & table don't lie. We're a very poor team, full of gutless sissies, managed by the biggest fraud in the PL, all working for a gangster property developer parading as a Spurs-loving football chairman.
Finishing 5th last season was a fluke due in large parts to that famous 10-game stretch. That Europa League run to the final is so overblown it's not even funny anymore.
How some can still defend that shite is unreal. Not talking about you btw.
The Grauniad
For Postecoglou, it was another unedifying defeat and as preparation for Wednesday’s Europa League final against Manchester United goes, this was another demoralising takeaway. By the end the early promise of their fit-again captain, Son Heung-min, had fizzled out. At this point it is intriguing to consider quite how many bruising results Spurs can stomach in one season. This was their 25th defeat of the campaign in all competitions, equalling the club record for a single season, set in 1991-92, and Tottenham have now lost eight of their past 11 top-flight matches.
Postecoglou made three changes from Sunday’s defeat by Crystal Palace but Son and Wilson Odobert, who filled in for the injured Dejan Kulusevski, may be the only ones to start both here and in Spain. The January signing Antonin Kinsky again deputised for Guglielmo Vicario, who was on the bench, and the defensive trio of Destiny Udogie, Cristian Romero and Micky van de Ven trained at Spurs’s base rather than travelling to Villa Park, a decision Postecoglou defended.
“They stayed at home, did a really strong session and come Wednesday they are all available and that is the most important thing,” the Spurs manager said. “When those guys play, with Vic in goal, our chances of success significantly improve.”
