This forum is abhorently toxic. Makes you wonder how many people on here actually support the club.

If you can't see how this team had a very average roster over the last two years, compounded by injuries all this year, and only now are we back to full strength I can't help you.

Two things can be true at the same time. The team needs investment and we’ve had injuries, AND we look incredibly poorly coached and are predictable on a weekly basis. If you can’t see that, I can’t help you.
 
I’ve been pretty supportive of Ange for a while but I’m 90% done with him. Even today, good to win and advance but we just concede such stupid and easy chances always. 5 mins left in a game and we just look so vulnerable still.

Don't think anyone is looking for your help.

We don't have a world-beating squad by any stretch, but most of us can see that we are massively underperforming. A big part of that is Levy's appointments and decisions, but Ange is paid handsomely to make best use of the tools at his disposal, and respond to the adversity of injuries, oppo setups and other challenges. Yet week after week we see the same glaring tactical issues, the same well-trodden epithets, the same poor substitutions that all reflect a very limited understanding of this league and, frankly, modern football in general.

His motley crew of assistant coaches was already a massive red flag. Only one I'd keep potentially is Wells.
 
The Unsackable !!!

I dont remember a Manager who was so close to being sacked and kept on getting away again and again

Just maybe with a lot of luck combined with his stupid "tactics" we will create some kind of chaos which will lead us all the way to Bilbao.

Also Im positively surprised by our players that they havent given up on him yet.
So there is a real slim chance that we could do it.
I hope he gets fired anyway but Ive given up my hope on that until the summer.
 
As good as the kid was today it was Bergvall’s two poor mistakes that led to their two only goals.

Its says a lot with respect to the season as a whole.

He's young and he'll make mistakes and he duly did. Bergvall would not have been planned to start in the EL at the start of the season for this reason.

Unfortunately injuries, suspensions and poor form from Biss, Bents, Sarr and Maddison means we're on relying kids in Europe.

Possibly because they acknowledge that injuries and absences of numerous key players for extended periods have contributed to the table position and season, (which BTW is why I believe Vic was also pissed off the other game).

Berg is the new golden boy and immune from criticism. Commentator today saying how impressed he was how he turned it around after his OG last week. If Sarr, Johnson or Maddison did the same not a word would be said.

He played well today but I find his preferential treatment on here and in the media baffling. Examples like the witch-hunt on vicario when he screamed at berg for a mistake early in the season. Would people on here have had the same response if it was Johnson? Of course not.
 
I think if some actual real planning is put into this comp, of course Spurs can go the whole way.

A squad with more talent than almost anyone. A squad also with the luxury of playing in the best league in the world to keep or in this case get sharper.

Give this team to almost any coach in Europe in the same position and they would come very close to the trophy. THats not downplaying it if Ange does happen to win it. I'm stating what I think is fact, and why supporters should still have hope.

Winning this format and doing well in the PL are two very different things. That conversion will be had at years end if Ange is still about I'm certain.

Ange in or Ange out there's no reason for anyone not to get excited about winning the closer the team gets to the prize.
 
Another three and half weeks to Frankfurt game, with international games coming up. Just sack Ange and get the unemployed Terzic in if Levy wanna save money. He knows German football inside out and I will be more confident of him setting up for Frankfurt than Ange. He can even win us the cup. I'm just scared watching us play under Ange.

I think it was the plan to give the young players starts or mins in EL & other cups, not as in 3/4 starters but 2 as starters with experiance around them in the first section of EL
 
Bizzare attitude to have for a 'fan'
There are many others here who don't share the same views with me in many things but most of us are respectful humans who can agree to disagree and discussions can continue to be insightful. I don't need to answer to you on my commitment for the club I support, you forum baby. In fact I already saw you are questioning many in here and mentioned it's toxic here. Lol. Just barely over a month here and you are only keen in getting over on people. Great initiation.. 👍🏻
 
We need five results and he needs to find a solution to our defensive MF and give cover to full backs as it won’t happen with the current set up, or is v unlikely

Options:
Back 3
Gray DM
Romero DM
Hope that we can fluke 5 results with Bentacur
442 with Sarr RM and Son off Solanke up top?
What else?

Somehow find a way to stodge and block those FB channels
