You enjoyed the way we played at Galatasaray. The way we lost to Brighton. Scrambled a draw at Leicester. Bent over and handed Crystal Palace and Ipswich Town there first wins of the season!
Jesus Christ man! If it was an odd random one off then maybe. But this is every other week ffs
What a strange supporter.....
It’s so weird seeing people talk about the way Ange coaches football and the way Conte/Mourinho coach football and acting like it’s one or the other.
Like when people mention a flaw in Anges game plan it’s “would you rather go back to the days of Mourinho and play boring pragmatic football?”
There’s so many steps in between those style of managers, it doesn’t have to be a case of we either put everyone in your box, or we won’t cross the halfway line. There are good teams and managers who balance attack and defence and do both well. Seems obvious and yet sometimes you read on here and it’s as if only two types of coach exist.

Fair dinkum. Seriously? I’ve never heard Ange say style is more important than winning.you guys need to stop looking for excuses to sack him. Yes, he wants to entertain. And yes he wants to win. What’s wrong with trying to do both? As you all here say historically Spurs trophies and titles are average. So how about have a crack, play entertaining football WHILE trying to win. I mean you guys will find fault with Mother Theresa
Only if she plays a back 3!
Seriously all you ever post is negative shit. How the fuck do you even get out of bed each morning. Miserable sot. Oh that’s how. Let’s find ways to shitbag Ange.
Fucking finally. Someone who gets it.
What’s funny is, I don’t think Daniel Levy himself actually understands that.
You don't like scoring more goals than anyone else in the league? Having the second best GD?
These are usually good markers of a side on the up?
But maybe you're right and there's a better manager out there. Who knows?
FFSIf Tyson fought like he sparred, he’d knock Paul out in 5 seconds. Wake up
Tyson has 3 seconds in him. The end.
I literally spent the first half of the post you quoted PRAISING our players.Seriously all you ever post is negative shit. How the fuck do you even get out of bed each morning. Miserable sot. Oh that’s how. Let’s find ways to shitbag Ange.
Fuck off,
what would you expect a postecoglou fanboi to think? come on mate.FFS

They spend most of the time questioning reality and absolute facts it seems.
They were definitely worse in 2016 when they finished 4th on goal difference. This is the worst they've been since Guardiola came in.
I'm dealing in facts pal. City are currently second, and the 4 times champions. That made up scenario you've just typed out may not happen. I'm sure spurs going up there and winning 4-0 nobody predicted.
City always seem to go through a bad run of form around this time iirc, it's certainly worse today than it's ever been though it's only 3 league games they've dropped points in out of the 6 they haven't won in, but you'd be a fool to write them off and say they're finished imo. People have said it for the past few years when Woolwich were ahead. City are done, title is over etc. Liverpool lose 2/3 in a row and they're all of a sudden bottling cunts and it's back on again.
Man United have 20 titles. Did it move the needle when we beat them?
We didn't beat the City that won the title last season. This is not that team.
Their form isn't great clearly....but that's partly due to us no?....as we've beaten them 2 out of the 5 games they've lost.....(by 'us' and 'we', i mean Spurs btw).
Even when we beat a good team, you're all: 'but they're in a crap run of form!'..
...so what's the point really?If you are really a Spurs fan why do you bother really? Might as well watch badminton or golf maybe?.....
Is it so strange to enjoy our season rather than bucket it!
Was it due to us that they let 4 in Vs Sporting? NoTheir form isn't great clearly....but that's partly due to us no?....as we've beaten them 2 out of the 5 games they've lost.....(by 'us' and 'we', i mean Spurs btw).

Was it due to us that they threw away a 3 goal lead against Feyenoord? No
Was it due to us that they lost to Bournemouth and Brighton? Of course it wasn't.
City without Rodri, 115 charges looming, Walker fallen off a cliff, an ageing squad and a coach who looks like he's ran out of ways to motivate what he has, are done. They'll be out of the top 4 this weekend.
Their choice now is whether they just go out and buy in January and ignore the charges, or whether Pep can make do with a knackered squad that look like they have nothing to play for anymore.
They have won everything. They earn tonnes of money. That squad is finished. In years gone by he'd have replaced a lot of them already but they can't. For the first time they can't buy themselves a refresh,
It's so weird that you can't see that these comparisons are made in direct response to those who dismiss the idea of entertainment being part of football and indeed Anges stated aim to play entertaining football.
We should all be Darren Bent fanbois like ol Daveyboyhitlernumbers 'ere
