Bookies have it pretty much 2/1 for a win on the night (no pens) - seems about right.
I do not have us beating Glimt as any form of guarantee.
They have made a name for themselves as giant killers since they returned to European football. Them beating Lazio in the first leg is far from a fluke.
Idk. The mood is so bad right now. I guess that changes if we win. But I feel like the league form would have to improve as well. All in all. I think there’s a less than 5% chance we win the EL at this point if Ange continues. So even less than that he stays at all.
This is quite clearly ridiculous. Celtic are on course for an unprecedented 9th treble.
Yes it's a much lower standard of league but they still competed and won.
Also they were only a minute or so away from taking Bayern to extra time a few weeks ago.
Celtic aren't to blame for Levy not understanding the massive gulf in class between the SPL and the EPL
We 100% don’t sack a coach who wins the Europa league.
Which would backfire if we got relegated the following season!
I'd say that's a safe prediction for obvious reasons.
We’re probably going need someone who has experience doing that sort of thing for the CIA IMO . Although someone in HR will probably point out that those sorts of “ methods “
aren’t really allowed anymore.
It would be such a weirdly Spursy paradox, I think it almost has to occur at this point.
On one hand, worst league season in over 20 years.
On the other hand, first trophy in 17 years.
I don't think we would get relegated, because I'd 100% expect him to be gone in November.
Ange has shown no indication in 18 months that he's going to turn into a real PL manager - if we win the EL it will be something of a fluke+fortunate draws+much more expensive squad. He'd be even more shit next season trying to juggle CL fixtures. We'd hit that busy November period, where no doubt we'll be playing away to Chelsea, and that would be it for him.
No chance imo. Any manager that finishes 16th or 17th at even a reasonable sized club is getting sacked despite cups. No one can risk that continuing and possible relegation. Add to that his constant fall out with fans and the continuing question marks about injuries to players on his watch and no way he stays. Levy is an utter dick but not even he is that daft. Even Postecoglou would probably think it was a good time to leave if he had a trophy. It would be dressed up as mutual consent.
Don’t most managers. I mean you can say Ange isn’t up to standard but that aside we are like a manager killing ground. I do wonder if Levy gets a kick out of destroying a managers mental health.
It might depend on what sort of contract he could screw Levy down to
Maybe a £3million pay off clause if he’s sacked before Xmas
All conjecture anyway as I can’t see us getting a result on Thursday whatever team we put out
They’ve all virtually downed tools
We currently have better odds than anyone we would play before the final, so if you feel that way - there's money to be made shorting Spurs.
I honestly think that at +500 we're a decent shout.
We're shit, but the stars do seem to be aligning for the ultimate contradictory season.
Him starting to say stuff like this in the last few weeks tells me that he has already been told that he won't be here next season no matter what.
If he was overseeing an upturn in league form with a fully fit squad in addition to continuing on Europe he would've had every chance of keeping his job. He already missed his opportunity though, I don't see a way back for him.
We’re not winning the EL so it won’t matter. He’s getting sacked.
No chance it’s virtually impossible to get relegated. Mainly because there will be 3 shit teams from the Championship that will go straight back down.
Russell Martin would have us higher than this clown. Hell even Ricky Martin could do a job.
He couldn't win us the EL if we was the only club left in it.
Man,I'm arguing with some Ange inners on X, Good Lord, the delusion is mental, what is wrong with these people
Give them time, maybe after a while they’ll post that they were wrong about him after all and just fancied trolling people for a while. It happens.
