Toney went to Saudi mate.
He’s not even really a footballer anymore.
No one in the prem went for him which speaks volumes

Toney went to Saudi mate.
He’s not even really a footballer anymore.
No mate only one of me why?
Spot on.Ange signed off on these players though mate and said he was happy with them so he is as much to blame as the recruitment imo.
He can't talk like billy big bollocks in his pressers if he is truly deep down unhappy with the signings and just lays down and rolls on his back for Levy, he was plenty vociferous against the supporters, should hold that energy for the club and chairman as well.
I think Ange and his vision/system is far too predictable for any long term success in a top tier league and in order for it to be successful you would need attacking talent the likes of which only City have and even then, I would argue someone like Pep would be getting more out of that talent than Ange would.
It's a four year sentence, but maybe with good behavior we can be let off after three.He won't get sacked under any circumstance, he's got bullet proof contract.
I really don’t think he’s going to say stuff like this if he doesn’t believe it. And it’s one of the reasons I still have faith in him.Ange Postecoglou on how difficult it is to change a club that's constantly ripping up and starting again as the first manager to last a full season at Spurs in half a decade:
"Yeah, they had a cake for me. I know I will not be here forever but I work like I will be.
Every decision I make is made off that backdrop. If you get caught in timeline scenarios, you make results that short-term might feel good, but long term you will not get to where you want."
We had 3 coaches because we sacked conte on the spur of the moment and gave the job to a boot cleaner. And then handed that job over to Mason.Hang on..there were 3 coaches not because things were going well but because the place was a one big shit show. That's what Postecoglou inherited. One big shit show. He got no favours from the previous managers ( unlike Rogers at Celtic where Ange left him the heart beat of the team to build on).
As for Conte, if he stayed, Kane wouldn't have, and without Kane, Conte would have been screwed. Last season would have been even worse.
Postecoglou could very well get sacked this year, no great shame in it really.
Incredibly consistent posting style.
One big shit show that then lost its best player in Harry Kane.Hang on..there were 3 coaches not because things were going well but because the place was a one big shit show.

And he was determined to make sure he got the compensation.Hes a narcissistic prick.One big shit show that then lost its best player in Harry Kane.
Revisionism doesn’t cover it with some of these posters when it comes to Conte in year 2.
He was trying to get fired.
Such as who...?Only the wildest optimists can view that as progress.
Tomorrow may already be academic.
Not good enough by any metric and bereft of star quality.
We need a manager who develops players and the team, and not who simply says he can.
Which are??I think you know the reason just as well as the rest of us....
Ok mateIncredibly consistent posting style.
Maybe you were seperated at birth?
That’s an interesting point. Ange was saying what a great lad Brennan is always asking for feedback. I personally think Brennan has done okay. I know plenty don’t agree and that’s fine but if he has asked for feedback what coaching has he had? Whilst I think he has done okay what I would say is he hasn’t improved his final ball to a consistent level.Only the wildest optimists can view that as progress.

Intresting because it's just made me suspect he doesn't actually know how to judge what he is looking at. If you spent a life time eating in Chick King. I'm not sure you would know how to appreciate three star Michelin French cuisine.I really don’t think he’s going to say stuff like this if he doesn’t believe it.

You would never catch Mourinho or conte saying this in a million years.
I’m talking about the part where he says he wants to make decisions that are best overall for the club. Instead of the many managers that only value the short term and will happily ruin the long term and jet out.Intresting because it's just made me suspect he doesn't actually know how to judge what he is looking at.

'Looking to avoid' are not statistics. They are suppositions.Some horror stats.
- Tottenham have conceded 26 set-piece goals in the Premier League since the start of last season, second only to Nottingham Forest's 27.
- Spurs are looking to avoid losing three of their opening five league games for the first time since the 2008-09 season under Juande Ramos.
- They have lost seven of their past 11 top-flight matches, only earning points in that run against relegated pair Burnley and Sheffield United, promoted Leicester City and bottom of the table Everton.
- Spurs are looking to avoid equalling their longest home losing streak in Premier League London derbies: three from August 2003 to April 2004.
Numbers 1 and 3 aren't.
What's that got to do with what I said?
Really good point and one that I share.Intresting because it's just made me suspect he doesn't actually know how to judge what he is looking at. If you spent a life time eating in Chick King. I'm not sure you would know how to appreciate three star Michelin French cuisine.
You think Levy's changed? Because you can 'want' a lot of things, the road to Hell is paved with good intentions. Baldy will pannick just like all the other times, and under resource just like all the other times. He'll bin off long term quicker than you can say Donna Cullen.I’m talking about the part where he says he wants to make decisions that are best overall for the club.
