When absolutely everything is gone wrong, there’s no reason to stay the course. You can’t dig your way out of a hole. Going deeper into this “project” with Ange will just waste more time.
My only hope is that the statements of support are just face saving PR because we don't want to present panic publicly and that, like with previous sackings, Levy wants to secure the plan before dropping the axe. Whether that's a new permanent appointment (preferred, and Iraola preferred), or a caretaker until the end of the season (Mason).

Last week of a transfer window is also a terrible time to sack a manager, and the unsure status we're in right now is certainly making it very, very difficult to recruit.

Stupid we didn't sack him sooner - giant mistake that will have plenty of negative knock on effects.
 
People here are clamouring for any type of 'win'. Apparently winning the league cup is like the holy grail. If we do go down, which I doubt, least we can 'win' the Championship and satisfy the weirdos on here.
A) If finishing in the bottom 3 and winning a cup is good for you then you need to get checked out
B) I have nothing else. This is all just madness
 
I can’t help but feel that his whole looking at the floor shtick is because he’s just constantly bullshitting.

He cannot tolerate eye contact because it communicates doubt or nuance.

He wants to talk to the floor or the wall because they don’t ask questions.

The fallacy of sunk cost in a nutshell
The other logical fallacy is that because Spurs had a series of managers who were fired quickly you can't fire this one quickly. Each hiring or firing was an decision that was independent of the others.
 
Bissouma now injured with a hamstring strain.

I am sorry but anybody pretending this has nothing to do with Ange is insane. The evidence is overhwhelming.

I have never seen anything like it at a football club, it absolutely has to be down to Ange's training and methods.

Anyone waiting for the injury list to clear up to give Ange a fair crack of the whip is just stupid at this point, because as we are seeing, the injury list is never going to clear up at this point. Under Ange we will always have around 10 players injured, if not more.

Whatever he has the players doing in training is completely fucking up our squad.
Agreed

It’s also on Ange in part to get the right medical team. As in, use your contacts to get good guys. Oh wait … contacts, network in elite football…???
 
We’re clearly in a crisis. Players dropping like flies. The manager doesn’t appear to have a plan. The owners have gone missing.

I fully expect the US to start dropping aid and divert the USS Harry S Truman towards the Thames

But but but ….Levy!!

This has never happened at Spurs before

I’ve never seen anything like this season at any club. And last season was about the next worse I’ve seen

But of course … it’s notthing to
do with how they play and train
 
Make Tottenham great again!

And you’re underestimating the impact of injuries and overestimating Ange’s input on the knackeredness.
Seriously though 2 games a week! In my amateur days I played of a weekend, had a weekday work comp and then a Thursday night indoor comp. Plus a fuck around most nights. And I was generally stoned too.

Any wanks during the week?

We won just 9 league games out of 35 in all of 2024. Many of these games with close to our first choice 11. Do not be fooled.

Of course injuries have exacerbated the situation further, but this fluffer loses games with everyone fit too.

I can’t imagine Ange as a ‘Fluffer’ somehow!!
