No one ever saw Cliff Jones and I in the same room together!

Cliff puts his glasses on and BAM - Bazali is in the room.

But in response to Ange's comments, yes the competition is a weak one. Every team bar two have been Champo / League One / League Two level. Those two are Gala and EF, who are both lower half PL level.

Bodo beat Porto, Lazio, Olympiacos, Twente, Besiktas to reach the Europa semis. All decent teams and Bodo deserve credit where its due.

To suggest those teams are Champo/League one quality is laughable.

The Premier league's over inflated wages aren't an induction of quality, they are reflective of TV rights money from the most watched league in the world.

If the Europa League is so easy, why have only 2 english teams won it in the past 20 years?
 
Well, Ange did finish 5th in the EPL.

Something Brentford, Bournemouth, Brighton, Palace, Everton, Chelsea, United didn't do. Does that mean all those coaches are out of their depth too?

Five of those clubs managers haven't spent 350mil on players.

The three B's have managers have all coached players with limited ability to play beyond their current skill level, something Poch was good at and that Jose, Conte and now Ange just pays lip service to.

Looking like a twenty five game losing season, one that has never been witnessed at Spurs in the PL era.

That alone and irrespective of the result in the EL Final, should facilitate his exit on Thursday morning.
 
There's some really interesting stuff by the FT journalist Dan McCrum on bluesky, on exactly what a few of us spent nearly a year arguing with the dudu dudu OziBeerMan OziBeerMan AberdeenYid AberdeenYid of this world about The nature of how Postecoglou sides play football causing injuries. It was so obvious that it was needlessly attritional and the root of so many of our problems yet they just howled their denial. Its been the most bizzare time in this clubs history, the personal loyalty to the man is unprecedented. It seems demotic of some broader social phenomenon...some thing is wrong with the world at the moment.

Because it was written in the FT, that doesn’t mean it’s necessarily true.

Totally agree but its not just the most amount of defeats in the prem era, its the highest in our 143 year history.

We've said it since last seasons self inflicted injury crisis.
If people still can't see it now, and fall back on "he needs a fit squad" as an excuse, they need to be sacked as fans.
