Be interesing to see how many of these accounts were on here celebrating our biggest win in over 40 years last night?

Might click though all the accounts to see their recent posting history. TBF I think The Extra Mile(sey) The Extra Mile(sey) and TonySoprano TonySoprano are good guys who mean well and just think Spurs will be better off once Ange leaves.

But some of the others are just so miserable that they probably didn't even enjoy the win lastnight because fans like me would be happy!
 
I'll be forever thankful to Ange for this trophy - but we are a poor team and he is the major reason why. Just as we need to upgrade certain players, the biggest upgrade we can make is to the coach.

On a personal level, I hope Ange goes on a high too. When it's all said and done, he'll be remembered fondly by the majority of Spurs fans.

Can I have a hug once I've completed it ?
 
He achieved something beyond his capabilities and capacities. He should leave now as a hero, so we can push on to the next level. He’ll be remembered fondly, because he won a European trophy, because he took over a job nobody wanted after Kane left, because he took the scared approach out of the deep roots of this team, instilled by Conte, and because he brought some insanely good talent for us to have for years to come in Bergvall, Van De Ven, Gray, Sarr etc.

But?
 
As someone who has followed Ange’s career, he has a tendency to walk when he wins and in conjunction with some reservations regarding resources given and/or the board/ management style. He did it at STH Melbourne, he did it at Brisbane, the Socceroos, Yokohama, Celtic and will probably walk from Spurs. I hope he doesn’t, I’d like to see him given the opportunity to learn from this season in conjunction to getting a few quality seasoned players in, and see what he can do.
He’s achieved his major objective, winning a trophy.
I think he’s going to walk. He’s copped a tonne of shit from supporters and media pundits. He doesn’t forget. Ask Craig Foster!
Leave on a high Ange.
 
"I think when we got to the end of January - the end of the transfer window and assessed our situation - I made a decision there and then that this was the trophy we were going to go for.
It was at odds with what other people believed at the time we should do and that's understandable but I really believed we could win this.
Everything we've done since then, everything we've done in training and the teams I've selected were making sure that when these games came around that we were in the best possible position to tackle them.
That has come at a cost for sure in the league and I have to take responsibility for that, but I just felt the end game of winning something was more important to me and it's the only way that I was going to do it."

Who cares.

Winners get to write history. Has always been thus and always will be

Not so simple.
Most probably he left all these jobs because he had better offers. It's not easy to have one now. In which case:
  • Ange will not quit a job he likes (and at the same time throw 10mil out of the window)
  • Levy will most probably not throw these 10mil either. Given that the pressure eased after the EL cup he can go on with his project of cheap but performing team.
Personally I think that this will be good for the club (not the board, all the rest).
 
Record with last nights back 5 starting is Top 3 and a European cup. Not too shabby when you look at it like that.

Think he's almost certainly gone but what a way to go out. COYS
 
Its very difficult to get rid of him. The players like him. Hes won our biggest trophy in 40 years.

Hes also showed he can change his tactics on the night. 5 at the back, low block etc...

He deserves another summer. We probably will regret it, but I think we owe him that.
 
They should still have been more dangerous on the counter-attacks - because being efficient on counter attacks does not depends as much on a having a creative MF schemer but more on the swift movement of the ball.

Fair, and look, Ange even said in his post-match presser we should have done better on the counter, but really, looking at the players, it wasn't a counter-attacking team

Most of them are just people that come alive during the bad times - they don't come on here to celebrate, they come on here to vent and take out their frustration on the keyboard

How many of Sonny's goals were because Kane could drop the ball right on his toe from 25 yards so he didn't even have to break stride? We are lacking someone that can do that. Deki is probably the closest and even if I love him he is no Harry Kane.

Yeh let him start the season. He’s getting sacked when it goes pear shaped. He can’t blag another year and despite what people think the trophy glory does wear off.

Respectfully part ways, his work is done. That’s what should happen.

But it probably won’t.
