Management Ange Postecoglou

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Trouble is, if you get rid of him then levy will pick another manager who is shit. He lucked out with Poch but that’s it. I don’t think any of us can face another summer managerial hunt. But you can’t stick with someone who’s not delivering.

Yeah, it’s often forgotten Levy wanted Van Gaal until Utd got in there first and lucked out big time with Poch.

Agree also with your last point- if Ange keeps losing games, especially in the manner we’re seeing at the moment - he’s done.

As much as this team needs rebuilding the signs are getting more worrying with each game

I dunno if I want him out but those of you who pretend the signs are not worrying and that this could be turning into a disaster are deluding yourselves.

He needs to wake up. Fast.

💯 this.

I don’t want to keep changing managers either and I haven’t said ‘get rid of Ange’ at all.

However, it’s been clear for months now that this side have been found out, this managers tactics are naive. Motivation appears non-existent. Players are shot to pieces despite not playing in Europe.

Just got a feeling if we try and ride it out he'll end up being sacked by October and there will be no one available other than the dregs or Ryan Mason as caretaker. Hoddle had a second half of the season like this and Levy bottled it in the summer and he was sacked 6 games into the new season and another wasted year. Its going to be a big call and i fully expect our board to make the wrong one.

Well put. I think Ange needed a decent uptick at the end of season to justify sticking with him and investing in his project. IF we get 6 or more points from the last games, and play well in all games, then fair enough. back the guy. If not, I'm leaning towards sacking him.

The most worrying thing is the players' apparent lack of motivation. That speaks to an increasingly unhappy camp, and things going wrong.
 
Give this team to a proper manager and we can get at least a cup title, we have a very good defense, we have 3 good midfieldes in Bissouma, Bentancur and Sarr and we could be a very dangerous team in the counter playing with Son and Johnson on the wings and Maddison or Kulu as our creative midfielders. We are just playing the wrong way.

Pathetic

Levys dream fan

Yeah, changing manager after manager will make Levy go away? Dreamland.
Levys dream fans are the ones similar to him, changing manager after manager and not what’s above the manager.
Ange had one transfer window. It’s not looking good. But we all knew it’s going to be up and down season. Now some of you are whining like we were champions under Conte so this is unacceptable.

I was furious when I knew we were after him.

Never wanted him.

Now he's here and I've had a close look at what's at the heart of his WAY, I'm happy to ride it out into next season and give him the chance to iron out the creases.

for me, he's earned that.

Summer is crucial, tho.

He cannot afford to missfire with new signings.

I wanted Enrique but was told it would be a mistake yet he’s in the CL semis. I’d have had Poch back and he’s beaten us twice.

Makes me wonder what would have happened if we’d have got one of those two in.

LOL

So 10 games at the start of the season doesn’t count? That’s how it works for you?

They count for the final table, but what I’m saying is that what we’ve seen more recently, like this whole fucking year, is a fairer representation of where we are as a team under Postecoglou, which is 7th/8th. Which is, again, in my opinion, what a lot of people expected at the start of the season.

So don’t spin 5th as if it’s some amazing achievement and we’ve got so much to look for next season.

I like Ange and I think he's brought something new to the league but I can see where this is going.

I am not a betting man but I reckon he's gone within the first 15 games of next season.
 
This guy is done. I said it during the NLD. The players have checked out. So many of them anonymous. Doesn't matter what kind of summer transfer business happens. Only a matter of time.

I would love to know what went on behind the scenes between the Villa and Fulham games.

We lost harry's goals and are 5th, with an average squad.

Our core game is good.

We're shipping goals on set-pieces and haven't got the players - in depth - to assassinate teams in the final third.

This manager is in his first season.

He must get to grips with a couple of things, but overall, he's done well.

People need to keep their heads.

I appreciate your cool head, and trying to reason. It's admirable,but just let them vent dude .

He isn't getting sacked by levy this season know matter how many insults are thrown his way on an internet forum.

So just sit back and let them vent

One of my daughters texted me earlier that she thinks Mason will be caretaker again by Xmas.
