Management Ange Postecoglou

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

I don't have any problem with his rant, you want the manager to believe in themselves and not be a shrinking violet.

But if we don't see performances and results on the pitch then it's all bluster. If he were as good as he thinks he is, we wouldn't have lost 18 games already this season.

We've had winter injury crises in both his seasons here and we have had horrendous results against top half teams in both his seasons too. He still has everything to prove and only has a few games left to do it.


I agree but on the same tip, the results during the first winter injury crisis were his second best period at the club. December to March last year was basically 2ppg.

This year the injury’s hit our form and results much worse because there was a European and Cup schedule mixed in. Last year only the league.

Ange and Lange got it badly wrong with squad construction, which he really needs to look at himself for because he’s the one that is building an almost religious determination to play intense football. His comments recently about needing a bigger squad are essentially him admitting that he underestimated the intensity of playing PL and other competitions at the same time because in the summer he was talking about not wanting a bigger squad.

I do agree with him that he’s made it from the bottom of the pyramid to the top and that doesn’t happen if you don’t know what your doing but sameway, the PL is a different beast and there were decisions that he’s made that he’s learned from because they were wrong,

Biggest and most obvious one was a CB like Danso so can play a high line and play the ball.
 
Not sure I want to listen to him. From the comments here sounds like he might be talking a load of b******s!
🤭

I think we’ve all heard enough from him. There always comes a point with our managers where I get fed up listening to their nonsense and it was about 6 months ago with him. Usually they are sacked weeks after that point but he’s still here enjoying the sound of his own voice. I think he’s just trolling us now.

Like a few posters on here!
 
He’s an insufferable prick quite frankly that loves the sound of his own voice.

He has the audacity to bring up how he took us from 8th to 5th, conveniently ignoring the fact that we’re now languishing in the bottom half of the table, have been dumped out of every competition except the Europa League, and just scraped past a side several levels beneath us.

His overinflated ego born from insecurity over his background and how he has been exposed in this league only makes him look even more ridiculous when he goes on a rant like this.

Being in a top position doesn’t mean you’re actually competent either btw—just look at politics if you need proof of that.

The sooner this bullshitting fraud is out of our club the better!!

Absolutely spot on. One insufferable, egotistical, obnoxious and deeply insecure man-child. I wish I was in that room, instead of the corporate media, to challenge and question his bullshit.
Just win the EL and fuck off, mate!
 
Postecoglou could have gone somewhere like Crystal Palace, created some excitement about the style of play, and won a few more games than they normally do. He would have been a fun character for three or four years. If you want to consistently hit the top four, though, he isn't the right guy.

Palace owners too smart to appoint him.

I’d swap him for Glasner though who seems to be getting a tune out of them. Obviously a better manager than Ange but we should be aiming higher. Interesting we are never linked to him though

Palace appointed a better manager. He has a Europa league win to his name and better league stats at Palace than Postecoglou does with us. Think their fans are pretty happy. Postecoglou just isnt a prem standard manager for us or anyone else. Pretty sure over 2 or 3 seasons he'd relegate them.
 
what criticism is he crying about? the media is still pretty easy on him considering the results. i've not heard any big voices call out his football and coaching openly. is he reading social media and random fan posts? or does he know he's an utter failure and about to get sacked and he's just setting himself as some victim? either way, what a trainwreck
 
Tbf compared to the dumpster fire that is twitter - Bluesky is alright.
