Management Ange Postecoglou

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

ange and his coaches got us into this position, were many of us wanted our team to lose
I'm not going to change then Last night we play without a CF, something many of us have called for with no Richy (Son has never been a CF)
Ange said CL not important = you got last night, set piece are not important = you got us to last night,

Ange says he wants to win so why don't you change system/formation some games, you don't so YOUR system is more important than winning
 
So Ange is a bad loser, good thing in my opinion. Yes he is also stuck in his ways, so what do we do roll the dice and change manager again? Lets face it, many have come and gone, there is only one common denominator and it ain't the managers, we have had serial winners come in and fail at spurs, stop blaming the managers and look for the real problem.
 
I wish Ange was this furious when the fans were fully behind the team during four losses in a row against Pool, Chavs, Woolwich and Newcastle. That's what cost us fourth. Not last night.

I just don't understand how he thinks we ended up in this situation to start with? You say he should be judged on results? Well, ok, we have missed out on top 4 because he failed to do the job weeks ago and our run of form has been abysmal so where was this outrage then? Why is it today of all days he is pissed off about what's going on inside and outside the club?

Like I said. CIRCUMSTANCE.

Our own fanbase weren't happy to see the team lose against Woolwich. Chelsea. Newcastle. Liverpool.

They were last night. Which for Spurs FANS is completely fine. We don't want Woolwich to win the league. But it's a completely different mentality from players and coaches. They want to win, they want to finish as high as possible, they want to be in the big comps. Easy to say "Oh well they should have done it earlier". Yeah, they probably should have done. But they didn't. And last night they were still given a glimmer of hope because Villa done their best to gift it all to us.

Why you can't differentiate between Spurs fans wanting City to win and a professional manager wanting HIS team to win is beyond me.

Sorry mate but it comes across as him just protecting himself, he can have whatever opinion he likes, I am fine with that but just know that the reason so many Spurs supporters were miserable as fuck tonight hoping our own team would lose so our bitter rivals wouldn't lift the PL title and have a fucking parade through our backyard is because he let us get into this position in the first place, he doesn't get a moral high ground.

And he's already said this season hasnt been a success....

Luckily, he acknowledges that and he knows that most of the squad are weak mentally and simply not good enough so let's hope somethings done about it.
 
ange changed his craved in stone system last night, playing without a CF WHY ? what was his reason ? why didn't he do it before the Chelsea match or Gooners, or Liverpool maybe we would have more points and would not have been in this position
 
And no, he isn't going to quit 😂😂

That'd make him just like all the fans that sold their tickets last night. The fragile lot he's probably talking about.

Precisely.

Projects high values and moral sophistication then is just downright bog-standard ungrateful, ungracious and disrespectful to the very ones who have been propping him up as he's spluttered along allowing us to get battered game after game, unwilling to address blatant flaws to stop the bleeding.

Fucking unbelievable stuff.
 
60k fans turn up at home week in week out. We travel as well as any other set of fans in the country.

We have had 2 League Cups since 1991.

For anyone to criticise the fanbase is quite frankly outrageous and leaves a bad taste in the mouth.

The fans were between a rock and a hard place. Win and we handed the Scum the title, want us to lose to prevent that and we are accused of being 'small time'. No win situation.

A great man once said 'without the fans we are nothing'.
 
He should be directing his anger towards Levy. A chairman who allowed one of our greatest ever players leave in the summer without bringing in players to try and fill the void.

Our attack is fucking terrible. He’s a manager who talks about playing one way and one way only.

Either convince your boss to give you what you need to do your job or walk. Don’t just sit around with a squad that you can’t do anything with and call out the fans for not wanting Woolwich to win the fucking league.
 
Manager calls out elements of the pussyhole fanbase which have been a symptom of why this club has been mudded, pussyhole fans start crying, take it personal and fail to see the bigger picture, shock.
 
Im glad Ange had a go at him. You can sit there and support City quietly but dont yell that crap out at the manager.

This is almost certainly whats caused the post game meltdown.
100%

I went there wanting us to play well be entertained, not get smashed but ultimately lose . So Ange had a different agenda , called out a dickhead fan for shouting out throw the game . Whether he got the tone right in his press conference is no biggie for me , could he , should he have handled it better? Yes
Did we lose and Woolwich are screwed ?Yes

But the Ange upset me he has to go reaction is a bit pathetic in my opinion

Stop All The Clocks....

I will be very surprised if I read a better post today.

Small-mindedness thrives on the fear of scrutiny, always looking over its shoulder instead of forward into possibility.

That's who we are. We want to be mollycoddled like little children and when the going gets tough, hope and pray that the scum down the road fails at our pleasure, even at the expense of progress.

"I understand rivalry, I was part of one of the biggest ones in the world in the last couple of years with Celtic and Rangers.

"I understand the rivalry. But I have never, and will never, understand someone wanting their own team to lose.

"That's not what sport is about."


The Aussie psych is to strive to win Always.

Now, because Ange dared to have a go at parts of the thin-skinned fan base, who are only worried about facing up to their Woolwich mates and copping a bagging, you're all calling for him to be sacked.

If you're a true Spurs supporter, you'd want them to win every single game.

Fucking TWP's.

The fans have fuck all to do with winning. City win titles with a half empty stadiums. The fans will not decide whether we win trophies or not, yes occasionally you can have a ‘12th man’ which we always do have for London derbies but it’s a smaller factor. Having a competent well funded club will that can generate a elite squad will.
