agree with all of that other than wanting him to 'be the one'. It's a good squad. Get them playing now with someone else and build for the Europa as there is a rest there while the other half battle it out. Unfortunately for us it looks like politics or something holding this decision back, not football.
To be clear, it’s not out of fandom for him. If Liz Truss became our next manager, I’d want her to be the one just because I’m desperate for some kind of success.
 
alot of these older conte buys need to be gone, and the new players need to be of elite quality but thats never gonna happen with Levy so what is there to do.

new manager who can get perform little miracles and have us finishing a solid 6th place and the odd semi final.

Yipee!

Meh rebuild schmeebuild - get the older heads gone okay but by the time the likes of Gray, Bergvall etc...grow up and mature at this club they'll be in general apathy mode and will act the same way as the seniors are all acting now. The only reason why they are trying to impress is because they're young and hungry.
 
Still in two competitions. Sack him end of season regardless. Dont want another season with this guy.

I was going to go to Man U to attend that protest but now I’m wondering if I can really be fucked. It’s probably accumulative, but I still kept going under Conte even though it was like pulling teeth, but now I just can’t be bothered. At least under conte we didn’t go into games with me thinking we’d lose but with Ange I do.

Another wasted season to add to the pile under these Enic wankers

That's his point though. There is no point getting rid of the old heads when the Levynomics model is to drip feed seniors into the squad.

The CM conundrum this summer is the perfect example because we all know Bentancur and Bissouma need to go but the club doesn't want to invest in two 50m CMs in one summer. They will leak stories that we are looking at signing 2, like we always do with CBs and forwards but they only plan to get one. That's why we have seen the recent sidedoor press release about Bentancur being a "leader in the locker room" because extending his contract is more their speed than selling and replacing him AND Biss in one summer.

They never fix a problem, they always leave the job half finished. Don't matter who the manager is, who the DOF is, the pattern is always the same.

Yeah Ange has to go end of season regardless. Just cant trust Ange another season particularly league as that's bread and butter. Merson on soccer Saturday last week saying Ange needs another season. Complete bullshit by that lowlife. We need a world class manager next season.

It's a scamathon
 
Sack off Ange and sell a load of the squad dross. Let Mason and Davies run the team. Levy's puppets can buy whatever shit deals they want while they still own the club.

Nobody should buy merch or attend games while Levy and Enic own the club. Their policy of balance sheet first can't be rewarded with our attendance or hard earned wages. Watch the games on the dodgy stick and be done with it.

Wrong to sack him now imo. End of season though. Even if we win Europa and fa cup. Just cant have another injury plagued season. All these injuries started home to chelsea 2023. It's too frenetic and unsustainable his tactics.
 
I was thinking this morning, as I walked through London Bridge at 6am on my way to the gym, our squad is perfect for Pochettino.

Kinski, VdV, Romero, Udogie, Spence, Porro, Bergvall, Sarr, Maddison, Deki, Tel, Johnson, Odobert.
There's so much youth and potential in that mix either a few players between 25 & 27.

I always felt his last Spurs squad was too old and been around too long for him to get what he wanted out of them. When you’re as established as a 2019 Kane, Eriksen, Son etc, why would they run themselves into the ground.
But we now have a new batch of players that are screaming out for moulding and training.

Said before with these owners it's like going to a high stakes poker game in vegas and we dont know how to play poker and have peanuts for stake money....bound to fail!
 
I actually can't stand the sight of him now.

I am so angry about last night. It was worse than I expected. I actually thought we might somehow, go there and at least put up a fight. But even that was too much for Ange.

It was a pthetic, cowardly, embarassing performance.

And to see him sitting there today in another press conference, being a moody cunt. I am sorry. I have never felt this disengaged in all my years supporting this club.

What Levy has done employing this imbecile is utterly criminal, and to still keep him here.

I just can't fathom how they are looking at him and thinking he should manage any more games.

We are as bad as I have ever seen a Spurs side, and we are this bad consistently.

I will quite literally dance the day he is sacked. I cannot fucking wait for it.

This season is in the bin, has been for months.

We finally had the league cup semi defeat which we've waited months to happen. The game everyone said we shoudl keep Ange for. It'll be the same on Sunday, and we will exit Europe as soon as we play a team from a top 5 league in Europe.

The list of abject defeats and performances is so long. Tamworth, Leicester, Everton, Palace, Ipswich, Fulham, Bournemouth, Brighton, fucking hell I could go on and on.

I, as a Spurs fan of over 40 years, sincerely hope we lose every game from here on in, just to make sure this cunt is gone from the club.

As long as we avoid relegation, I just want it to be so bad that Levy is forced to sack him. Let's get battered every game. Embarrass that fat fucker. Because for whatever reason, Levy is hesitant to sack him, and he seeminly won't sack him. So for the good of the club, we need to lose as many games as we can, to get rid of the cunt.

It's so sad it has come to this. I hope Villa hammer us on Sunday, because what is the point of scraping through? we will only lose at some stage, so may aswell save ourselves the energy of going any further.

I am sorry for the players, especially the new ones, but they need to play under a competent manager, not this fraud.

We will lose most games anyway, so what difference does it make if we start hoping for it? I am basically feeling nothing now, when we lose, it's just indifference, a real sorry state of affairs.

Thing is Poch is a very different coach and guy to 12 years ago. He had recently retired from playing, he understood those lads. Whether he can update his tactical ideas, connect to the next generation, these are all unanswereables.
 
recognising the bean counters count the beans above all else, The tens of millions of pounds they are chucking by keeping this guy is highly questionable.

Less money = less investment and it’s all going to spiral downwards. He has to on an economic basis as well as a sporting basis.
