Brad Pitt to confirm he is indeed willing to put on the weight for the once in a lifetime opportunity to portray Ange?

:ange-arms:



Only to be outdone as Daniel Day-Lewis announces he's coming out of retirement to take up the role?

Reading some criticism of the performance and in-game subs. Which might be valid if this was18 months in like ETH or 4 years like Arteta against say...I dunno a shit club like Chelse.

Its SEVEN in, plus a shit pre-season with a virtually new starting eleven and without the club's greatest ever striker/player against Liverpool.
 
Yeah, bit harsh regarding substitutions. Maddison and Son have both been carrying injuries, so not a surprise they're being pulled late in games.

He also has, let's be honest, a bit of a shower of shit bench to work with currently.

Incidentally, it was similar his first 6 months at Celtic. Often would avoid making subs until late, if at all. After a couple more transfer windows and much improved depth though, he'd often ring the changes early, sometimes replacing 3 players on 60 minutes to alter a game.

He came from a small club in Scotland playing the equivalent of league 1 football excuse me for not being optimistic after the season we'd just had 🤷‍♂️. Let it go.

If not for that small club, Ange would probably still be plying his trade in Asia and Spurs would likely have some other overrated joker languishing in midtable, complaining about the sale of Harry Kane.

Instead, Ange has us 2nd and unbeaten in the league, and is pretty much the sole reason for starting to shake that 'Spursy' tag.

A thank you wouldn't go astray.

Respect. Respect.

We need to figure out how to create more against a parked bus.

We struggled to create against Sheffield and 10/9 man Liverpool but when teams attack us, we create plenty.

Opposition coaches may start giving up the midfield battle and just sitting back all game and countering.

Honestly when the big man was appointed who though he would have such a positive impact on the entire club?

He had been a breath off fresh air with fans and players responding the only way is up COYS!

Postecoglou - how is he not in the list. Walks in unknown to most clubs outside Australia, fans want to stake and burn him, 12 months later, turns general shithousery into gold and same fans then want to build a statue of him. Working with a paupers budget all the time whilst winning would also please very much General Levy.

Posted this mid March but you could add every Australian football follower to the list. And Yokohama fans. And eventually Celtic fans although they didn't want to believe he would go.

I'll double down.

Ange WILL NOT go to any other Prem League club - he will be too loyal. He also will hate Spanish heat, so that's a no go. He will not be tempted by England as he has too much family here and he knows the consequences!

He will therefore, by elimination ,WIN the League, both Prem and Champions with Spurs.

You're welcome!

Agree, few on here appear to be concerned with this,
they had 9 players and we didn't get them moved out of position until the end of the game, (that was a defender came out to PEH, then the ball was switched across to our right)
the manager & coaches should be experianced enough to know what to change to create more chances against parked buses

I don't think we should be that worried.

We created loads against Sheffield United. Their keeper literally made about 12 saves and we were denied 2 penalties. And if not for Alison, we win yesterday comfortably.

Unfortunately there will be a game or two where we do fail to break a team down but that's football.

Even City, who are probaly the best team in world football at breaking teams down will have the odd game where they can't do it or don't get the lucky break. See Wolves yesterday. Or the numerous games over the last few years.

Maybe we should have pushed porro forward to whip in crosses and had kulu central because no way was kulu going to put in a cross
