Yep. Disgraceful performance
his cheap suits sums him up, trying to be someone he isnt. would have far more respect for him if he just wore a tracksuit. he looks fucking horrendous in a suit, looks like someone who wears it just to attend funerals every now and then. doesnt fit or look good at all. everything about this man stinks!

I wouldnt be surprised if Ange actually wants out, in his heart of hearts. Or if he’s in a place where he doesn’t want to be sacked but wouldn’t be too bothered if he were.
Got a feeling we’ll get spanked at Villa on Sunday, Ange will get the sack and Mason will take over for the rest of the season. Seen this movie before.
Thelma and Louise?
Noticed levy, cullen and munn all at matches. Part of me thinks doing recon on ange.
I hope not. Respect what he's been through but time to cut him loose.
The question is, who would turn up to manage us for four months with only Europa to come?
Manuel Pellegrini looked the worse in tracksuit as did wenger. Pellegrini looked death warmed up and needed a good sleep.
That’s the problem.. We’re in a tough spot. I wanted too let him see out the season and give him his crack at the EL but performances like this make me feel pretty hopeless.
If were still in a competition to win then ange should get till end of season. Can still win fa cup and Europa league.
I think the club leadership understands what a dire situation the squad is at. I suspect a lot of the players are playing injured.
We got rid of our entire medical dept in the summer, including people that had been at the club 20+ years. The new lot clearly haven't improved things and that has left Ange short.
This was always a 4 year plan. Once Kane left, there was no quick fix, it was tear it up, start again.
Year 1 - Get rid of the dross; bring in youth
Year 2 - Overhaul of medical and coaching. Get youth up to speed.
Year 3 - Get the young team all playing together.
Year 4 - Challenge the top teams.
By year 3, we should have hardly any players left from the old squad. Bissouma, Bentencaur, Madission, Richy, Reguillon need to be moved on this summer.
Based on what evidence? I'm not even sure how you cling to this given what we've just witnessed.
5 minutes reply: "I don't really assess other teams..."
That's quite telling in itself...
Maybe a bit of opponent assessment and planning may have given us the vaguest sniff of a chance tonight!!!
That's about as fair as you can get.
There are many who would, with very good cause, suggest another manager should be brought in to maximize our EL chances but the "fair go" in me agrees with you that the bloke who got us there should be given the chance to see it out.
THe "fair go" in me also wishes someone had gone and knee capped 11 of Liverpool's squad before tonights game and asked Carragher and Redknapp how they expect them to go but then the Scum might win the league so FUCK MY LIFE
Cant have a caretaker manager in mason going for fa cup or europa. Not a chance. May as well have ange till end of season. Europa and fa cup still on.
Got us there seems like giving him a lot of credit. He coached wins over Elfsborg, Alkmaar, Qarabag and Ferencavros in the Europa League. I could pick a tramp off the street, stick him in the dugout and achieve those wins. Pretty much all the competent sides we've faced in Europe we have not beaten.
In the FA cup we beat Tamworth..
Ange really doesn't deserve well .. anything. He's actually been given more leeway than any coach usually would. He's led a traditional top 6 team to 14th (not even our lowest point!) in February. His only success all season has been some good results in the league cup, ultimately being embarrassed in the semis.
He's an incredibly lucky person to still be in a job.
LOL why the fuck not. What would they be doing worse? We might possibly lose 5-0 instead of 4-0?
Neither are "on" what the fuck are you watching. We're still in them by virtue of playing absolutely nobody of worth in either competition. As soon as we do in any serious two legged tie, we are out of those as well. Why do we have to wait till our season is completely dead before we make any move?
Vibes FC. Still living off about 15 games worth of exciting football in 18 months.
I'd already conceded your view had absolute merit and conceded my view was simply empathetic/romantic in essence...
Having said that, Postecoglou's got us further in more Cup competitions with far inferior players available than Conte or Mourinho did during their tenure. Both of whom are far more accomplished managers.
Hence why I agree with
Hampshire Spur
that Ange should be given the Cups (EL really because he might actually have something remotely resembling a first 11 by then) while also acknowledging that people like yourself have every right to think otherwise.I agree he's very lucky to still be in a job.
