Some will try mate.
And even if they don’t deny it, deliberately failing to acknowledge it whilst manically screaming “Ange Out!!” “sack the Aussie c*nt right now!!!!” etc etc is just as bad.

set pieces arent important
subs arent important
Woolwich winning the league is irrelevant
get this absolute cunt job out of this club and out of the country too. piece of shit.
imagine being told youre going to have a manager come in who doesnt care about the scum winning the league, doesnt care about set pieces and doesnt think subs are important....and theres people that want this mug! is this a sick joke.

JFC. This guy is a moron. He'd rather lose the game, the make subs and win the game, because then it would be falsely rewarded.
That is one of the most stupidest things I've ever heard a manager say in football, in history. If that was a rival manager we would be taking the piss for years. Arrogant fucking fraud. I've had enough of this cunt, get him out of the club.
I would say maybe expecting your team to keep running, pressing, attacking flat out for every minute if a first half will result in them being flatter than the opposition in the second half. Porro was incredibly exposed throughout this game by the space behind him and the space between him and our free-roaming midfield. I like watching us play most days, and I want us to stick with Ange, but he has shortcomings that need to be addressed, and he needs to be man enough to accept that if he's to be more successful at the top level.
1) I don’t want him sacked. I’ve said before - end of the season and assess. Sacking him now = limiting options and Mason. I do want to realistically assess where we’re at and I’m not going to do stuff like claim we’re on some mega run because we had 3 piss easy cup games. That sort of shit is just annoying.
2) We have the 5th best squad in the league, so 5th (again) is realistic. We definitely have a better squad than Villa, they just have a better manager. I think our squad shades Chelsea’s overall but they have Palmer who is miles ahead of anything we have in terms of star quality. He’s like when we had a Bale. That’s worth more than having a better centre back and fullbacks.
3) Abso-fucking-lutely. I don’t HATE Ange. I doubt his reputation. I am yet to see any great in game management or be pleasantly surprised by us tactically in a game. He’s very good at some other stuff. He’s obviously not terrible. I just don’t think he’s elite.
ENIC are tremendously happy for us to settle on not elite.
Ultimately we’ve wasted two great performances away at our immediate rivals for Europe. Pure defensive stupidity and wank sub patterns by Ange mean we get 0 points at St James and the Amex despite pinning them back and dominating. It’s fucked because you don’t get to do that at every away match, and we’ve effectively wasted them.
it shows what the squad is capable of! now it just needs to be in the hands of a competent manager! this squad is decent. its lost 8 games from the last 14 and won 5.....thats no where near fucking good enough for this group of players!
this charlatan is massively holding this squad back!
We are basically like a boxer who is incredibly active early on, throwing everywhere, slick, constant pressure. If the opponent folds early its great, if they are able to stay standing later then we are out of gas and not clever enough to really take the sting out and waste time.
We are insanely one dimensional, basically. Our one thing is great fun and high energy but we have a soft centre. Teams pretty much always have large periods against us where you can see our press has fallen off and we’re tired. And individually we make too many mistakes to weather those periods.
Now arguably you could say Ange is establishing the fundamentals and then we will add more strings to the bow and become a team who wins points as well as plaudits.
Newcastle 100% we were mostly better than them and had our boot on their throat (for huge periods they couldn’t play out at all) but Brighton wasn’t a whole good performance, it was one half.
The second they were by far the better team and good value for three points.
the narrative is that ange never changes his tactics, so the non smart people like you who can't think for yourself assume that this happened, i call it 'scenario fulfillment'
the team sat off, the high press was non existent and it was replaced with zero pressure, when brighton advanced then spurs dropped back deeper and had all players behind the ball, from the 49th minute until brighton took the lead
this is good news for people who called for ange to do this and try to see out the game but bad news for anybody who wanted spurs to win the match because that just invited brighton in and cramped up our defenders
Ange didn’t do anything. He had no control at all. The team were forced back. A low block doesn’t work very well if it’s against your will and everyone’s shitting it because they’re not very good at this and they’re fucking knackered and can’t press anymore.
We were fucked. And then we got the football equivalent of a flashbang so everyone was really tired and really scared all at once. Recipe for total fucking disaster.
For me ange doesnt have a personality. Its all shallow shit. Good in a presser talking about his accomplishments cos hes a fraud. But he doesnt give me confidence or motivation. On the sideline hes as meek as they come. The only time he showed a bit of life was to screech at a Spurs fan for criticising him
Id rather have tim fucking sherwood back. It comes across as ange being all about ange. Every single opportunity he’s gone against the fans. Secretly i dont think he likes the club or the fanbase and just took the oppurtinity

Yeah he’s got to go. Sorry. Line in the sand. That is a sackable fucking statement, indicative of dizzying arrogance and stupidity. That cannot be the mindset of a professional manager at this level.
I’ve just lost all confidence in Ange Postecoglou leading our footballing project. He must be replaced at the end of the season if we’re serious.
4 different police stations have confirmed that its perfectly legal
By the way, I am not the only non-smart person who didn't see tactic changes, the 10-men behind the ball, getting back defending without attacking, and changing tactics. Almost the whole worlds. Including the "pros" in the video below:

They seem to suggest that his "mistake" is not getting back to defense and tightening things back and not changing tactics. Contrary to what you talk about.
no this was all starting 2 minutes after halftime and well before anybody should be feeling tired, their opening goal is not the team being forced back, it was a weird half assed narrow high line, their left winger totally open and then the defensive line drops off and happens again after the goal a few minutes later on the other side and for the next 15 minutes
this is not the so called ange ball with relentless pressing to win the ball, this is different, this is some weird experimental high line mutant ninja catenaccio
good job you have found other non smart people who repeat the narrative and assume it happened here, im surprised they didn't bring up the chelsea down to 9 men game
if Glen Hoddle was on the air then he would bring it up pre game at halftime and fulltime
you asked when did they drop back, i replied and you reached for the pundits, but if you want to go on a pundit arms race then ive got paul scholes and tim sherwood saying tottenham problem was sitting back and not playing their usual attacking game
btw let me know which goal comes about because spurs were playing too attacking, don't let some weirdo pundits do your talking for you, you should have responded yourself
It's just who we are, mate.
