Ah i thought it was about the snails pace of incomings.
Hell say no and he should but behind closed doors it will be pissing him off
It's what I'd expect from someone who says they want to win and achieve at the highest level, who very publicly called-out the fans for not matching his ambition.
I'd expect consistency in this regard.
And due to his, frequently demonstrated, open nature he's not really the kinda guy that can hide is displeasure at things.
So I'd expect to - and would be perfectly reasonable in expecting, in context - to see it.
he said in pre- season that Bergville and Grey weren't ready ,so it's like we bought no one
It's a bit of a concern that,the club hasn't or doesn't appear to be in for a DM.
With the high line ange employs, it's an accident waiting to happen every game.
we just got to wait and see
He can get the bald cunt in a headlock in his office and hammer the little fuck via the press - like to see him go full Conte tbh, the little runt won’t get away it for the 21st time. Oh wait
Pretty fantastic point there, if you have the brass to get pissed off at the supporters for lack of ambition you better hold that same energy for the chairman.
After the fall out from the city game and what was said I'll have no respect for him if he just accepts this.
I have loved Ange so far but the one question mark I now have other him is his ability to recognise the ability levels required for us to advance which then obviously hugely effects transfers.
The fact he would green light us signing Werner after what we saw last season and the fact he insists we need a striker more than a winger is a huge worry to me.
Obviously hopefully I'm completely wrong

He’s got to play the game aka managing upwards….
He’s been given the chance of a lifetime managing us ; if it goes wrong his CV gets a black mark ( big time) ; it’s as much about how he inspires . manages and motivates Daniel and his Uncle as is it is about how he inspires , motivates and manages his players .
Hopefully he’ll do the difficult bit ; then the players will be a piece of cake in comparison.
Did he ? Not sure about that
Oh God, The transfer window does some really funny things to people.
Some fans would be slagging him off no matter what he says or does. It is what it is at this point and it's the same in every supporter base with every team.
The only way we'll ever overcome this is if the fat skippy plays an actual squad in the league cup and we win something. Then finally the whole forum can come together as one to celebrate. Even all the 200 accounts with the same two IP addresses in the off topic section will be shaving their heads bald and singing Ange's name.
"I think I said that it would have been great if we had done our business already, but I've always maintained a discipline not to go off and sort of get too emotional through these times"
He's probably doing deep breathing exercises at a minimum
You can’t criticise Ange for keeping things polite when he’s asked about transfers by the media. What else is he supposed to do? Do a Mourinho/Conte and rant about how we have a lack of ambition?
I’m sure behind the scenes he has made his feelings quite clear. We can’t improve on last season without adding some quality in key positions.

Think what you like about Ange but he never has nor will be a "yes man".
He just won't just panic sign a player for the sake of it because he "needs a striker" and would rather wait and keep working to get the right profile of player.
He'll have a pretty clear idea of what he's looking for which will typically be a striker with good movement who will look to run behind and that has a high workrate to press when out of possession. He had a guy called Berisha in Brisbane (that he took to Melbourne) and obviously Furuhashi at Celtic that fit the profile and suspect he'll be chasing the same for Spurs.
