One thing that points out with Ange is udogie has got worse as time as wore on and johnson has zero tricks to take on players. Seems to me players arent being developed like poch used to do. Even poch got a tune out of mason being developed. We need a manager who has numerous tactics, formations and can develop players. That's why its iraola or poch for me as next manager.

The blokes injuries are bordering on chronic..The most I'd risk is 15 mins at the end. I'm actually scared he's now so compromised we need another quality lcb any way ( flashback to the summer when I wanted to buy Tapsoba as well.)
Another fucking shite day in work...has he gone yet?
Deki was never going to throw the manager under the bus during a press conference that he is part of alongside said manager.
He was the same with Conte. But once Conte was fired Dejan started airing his criticism to the Swedish press. Constructive and professional, but still criticism.
Our only remaining pathway into the CL (just for more money, not any glory)?
Odds on VDV starting tbh.
Ange said they’ve been extra conservative with bringing him back and he’s had a good 10 days of training.
Sounds like everyone medical and football thinks he’s ready. Can’t keep him wrapped in cotton wool forever. He gets paid to play football.
He should start.
Maybe 50-60mins to be safe but the man is fit to play.
You've completely misunderstood me fella.
Brennan is not the type of winger that is the key to Ange's system working.
That is my opinion.
Brennan's rapid, done his best and scored a few goals, especially since Solanke arrived, but he isn't a dribbling, beats his man, winger.
Neither is Son.
Son is starting games and captain at Spurs for non-football reasons in my opinion.
Re - read what I've written on the topic and think again.
End of season we should cut our losses with johnson. Offer him back to florist with gibbs-white or murillo in exchange.
I am not sure about that tbh.
Brennan may kick on under a different manager, in a different system.
His finishing has improved and his goals to games has too.
What alarms me he has no trickery in his armour. Hes deceptively quick but not as good as lennon was for us. He was more dangerous and brave. Dont see that with johnson.
He's quick, can finish with one touch and he scores goals.
Worth a punt in my opinion.
In a counter attacking team, with two up top, playing more centrally, Brennan could work.
This whole debate surrounding players backing a manager/downing tools is mostly pointless to me. No matter which one is the case, and I have a feeling that more often than not neither is the case, it's possible to construct sound arguments for or against the manager in question.
It's certainly a good thing for a manager to be supported by his players. Other things being equal, this can be a consideration in favour of keeping him as long as this is the case. At the same time, a manager getting poor results despite having his players on his side can be a terrible sign. It implies that, as soon as this belief starts to erode, things will only get even worse. Being proactive and pulling the plug before this eventuality becomes the reality would therefore be a wise move.
Players downing tools has always been considered to be the point of no return for the manager in charge, yet it's also very reasonable to argue that sacking and employing managers just to appease a bunch of troublemakers will do more harm than good in the long run, by sending them the message that there's a significant power vacuum in the club that they can readily exploit. Again, almost diametrically opposed conclusions can be drawn from the same premise.
I'd rather bypass the aforementioned ambivalences altogether than getting bogged down in them.

Agree!
I could easily see him scoring 12 goals before the end of January in a team like that.
Let's hope so, he's the best player we've got and will definitely need him to feature for not one game but a potential 20 plus games

Definitely not lipservice mate. Just look at his face. He meant it.
John terry was the architect of downing tools when he didnt like the manager. Cunt of the highest order. Tbh I dont think our players down tools as not them kind of people and are professional. Only cracks possibly is romero and maddison. I'd sell romero in summer for huge money so we earn well out of it and get a top replacement first.
I mean why would he lie about the manager who picks the side after being asked a direct question?
LO-Fucking-L.
Sack the cunt.

Don't matter, selling them won't fix the problem.
