Such nonsense, having a shit season doesn't suddenly make you not an attractive club.

We paid Conte 15 times what Iraola is on now, they'll be forced to sell in the summer like their best striker to, oh yeah us.

we don't have to sell players to keep in with ffp etc.

I know you're annoyed but don't think we're not still a massive and hugely attractive club.

United were in a similar shit state and got Amorim in in October.
So much to dismantle there see my other post to Spaghetti brain..

But how's Amorim panning out? Turns out of you have shit players a shit owner it doesn't matter who the manager is
 
If anybody harbours some genuine doubts about how much of his general stubbornness can be attributed to unwillingness, instead of simple inability, then this match was a good evidence for the latter. Like some limited players we have, he’s just a limited manager who is trying to play to his supposed strengths. When he actually tries to do something different, he looks even worse than he'd have looked had he stuck with his usual approach. This was the most disorganized and chaotic 3 at the back I’ve ever seen, it’s clear he has never put much thought into it. Who asks his RCB to constantly push to midfield and leave an entire side of the pitch wide open? What was he thinking?

No, he’s not trying to establish strong foundations that he or his successor will build upon. He doesn’t have anything else up his sleeve. He just has a bunch of intuitively appealing but very surface level ideals about the game, nothing more. He might have been fine as an eccentric assistant under a proper manager, but that’d be his ceiling at this level.
 
I backed Ange, I liked his personality and football (when it works), I liked his commitment to get rid of the spursy tag

However he’s now made that tag worse

Forget injuries, forget busy schedules, forget bad form, there is no timeline or galaxy in which we should be getting dominated by Everton

The defence was an absolute shambles, and we are toothless in attack

Time to move on

id love iraola too but we might of left it too late now, this change needed to happen months ago.
 
When he was first announced, an article was run on him and how he manages his team and staff. The journalist described that he was always in control and that, in one particular meeting, someone made a suggestion and he said 'if I want your opinion, I'll ask for it'. I think we were supposed to see this as an example of an extremely impressive, decisive coach.

I just thought 'sounds like a bit of a cunt'.
I mean, this is the guy we're talking about. His character has been evident for 20 years:

And about every word ha said, I agree on.

The last part is a good question. Ange points wise and position wise is the worst we have had in 25 years. levy in the past used to be pretty trigger happy when it comes to firing managers. But this guy, he's digging his heals in to keep. Why. What makes him want to keep Ange in charge, when he decided to fire Pochettino, Mourinho and Conte when Ange is serving up consistently worse results than those 3. And to speak Levys language, he is much cheaper to fire than those 3. I don't get it.

At all.
 
Is Mason any better though? Hard to be worse I guess but he had the luxury of players like bale and Kane who he could just tell to go and play some football.
I think we'd lose less often. I think he'd rotate better. I think he'd play players in their best position.

Today for instance was crying out for Reguilon at LB, Spence at RB and Porro given a break.
But noooo, let's keep running Porro until he breaks and then lets play a promising looking Spence out of position.
I can't help but feel even Mason could figure that out.
Maybe Mason will give Son a few weeks off too
 
Just listened to the press conference. The increasingly desperate argument that he will get his players back eventually and we kick on from there ridiculous on a day we lost two more players in Solanke and Johnson. The list is only growing.

It's just utter nonsense. He just sits there after every game saying I believe we will get through this when we get our players back.

That is it. There's fuck all to believe in, just empty words from an utter dross clown.

I honestly will feel sick if he isn't sacked by tomorrow. We cannot employ this useless fucker any longer.

It's Ossie Ardiles Spurs managerial career all over again.

Ossie didn't make it past Notts County in the League Cup.

Ange's Notts County moment was away at Coventry and he got lucky by bringing on Spence who got Spurs back in the game.

Spence has been overlooked for two years for having a bad attitude allegedly.

Baldy got his dream manager in Ange.

Someone who was glad of the opportunity and who would do as he was told.

Ange is apologising for Levy today saying how terrible it is that selling clubs are trying to exploit Levy's need for players.

Levy has exploited buying and selling clubs as well as the loyal Spurs supporters for 24 years.

He's a tight cunt, charging top dollar, for jam tomorrow.

Always has been; always will be.

Levy should be sacked at half time, in Spurs next game by Lewis for being shit.
