It's a big smokescreen. Postecoglou talks about culture and philosophy and it diverts attention away from the record. I'm so tired of hearing the word "culture" associated with Spurs. By inference it's used to criticize us as fans. We're no more negative than fans of any other team in a similar situation (under performing relative to resources) would be. There's no such thing as "Spursy", players don't turn into lesser versions of themselves when they come to Spurs, and the fans respond to events like fans anywhere would do. If he's buying into that nonsense and then trying to cast him as the white knight riding into to save us from it, then its one more good sign it's time for a more stable manager.

Yep he's full of shit inferring his problems are bigger than all the other clubs in the Premier league
Perfectly put, mate.
Quite interesting that he forever preaches that it's "only the internet" and how everyone shouldn't get worked up....whilst he gets...No it’s not. It’s called you contradicting yourself you wally.
worked up lol. The hypocrisy is delicious.
Living in his own little world he is. Delusions of grandeur are rife.
The people suggesting if we win EL that we see how he gets on first few games next sesson. Idiotic.
That would mean a summer wasted buying players for ange. Who could we get in new season.? A near full season under mason. No thanks. Get rid as soon as EL done
EL is a prestigious trophy imo. Better than winning fa cup or carabao. Added bonus place in champions league and play in super cup. CL and premier league is only above EL.
The teams in this EL have been utter garbage...nice to win the cup of course but no great technical or exciting football feat....
Instead of Spurs v Fish Farmers I watched Utd as I thought Athletic Club were the one classy outfit left in the competition then I watched with amazement as Slab Maguire does his right wing trickery for their first goal and the Athletic defender pleading that it was no foul for the pen.
Just shows the strength of the PL when two shitshows can stroll through semi finalists.
I won't celebrate the cup with quite as much vigour as previous European trophies but I will celebrate nonetheless and then celebrate again when this gobshite leaves.
It’s not better than winning the FA cup. The FA cup is significantly harder to win. The only reason it could be considered better is if you’re chasing CL qualification. For us it’s better right now for that reason.
The EL isn’t bad but it is very much a battle of the sides who aren’t good enough for the top tier of Europe. And frankly a lot of not great sides play in the top tier.
It would be huge for us to win - we’re on a drought, anything would be huge. But it’s only really prestigious if you’re a Sevilla, Frankfurt type club.
100% its still the third most prestigious trophy a club can win. its been diluted a few times now but id still rather win europa league over the FA cup.
the reason they changed the european cup into the CL is because the eufa cup was harder to win than the european cup. the champions league basically merged the eufa cup and the european cup.
european supercup against barcelona would be hilarious.
Personally I would be happy to win any of the cups while we try to get to the higher level as has been posted plenty of times going from around fourth or fifth to really challenge for the title takes a hell of an investment etc something we certainly will not do with our owners .In the meantime bring on the cups .
The FA cup is more prestigious than the Europa League. The Europa league is more rewarding if you're a side chasing another way in to the CL.
The FA cup is the #1 domestic cup in the best league on the planet. The EL is a best of the rest comp which excludes all the top teams in Europe.
no one outside of england gives a shit about the FA cup....and barely anyone in england does, the best teams dont take it seriously anymore.
no domestic cups are more prestigious than the europa league. domestic cups are domestic cups...the europa league is the whole of europe.
90% of fans for any club would be taking europa league over a domestic cup.
taking away CL qualification, the europa league is far better for a club to attract players to the club than a domestic cup.

It's a trophy in the cabinet and extends our european pedigree if we win it. Like to think were a continental club.
With our recent history I don't care what trophy we win, just win one!!!
The Europa League would be massive for this club, this fanbase and this young squad.
Anything else is just noise and agendas

Certainly got the ‘Rat Boy’ face for it!
People actually think The Fa cup more prestigious than the UEFA/Europa.
