Watching his presser was just asked if it could be his penultimate game with the club and he basically said it doesn’t matter, big opportunity for the club to win something and he will continue competing for trophies wherever he ends up.

Definitely sounds like he has been told he won’t be here next season already.

Ange came out firing in that press conference. No timid, scared of the moment type stuff.
 
Ok, let's say our best players have a good start. What happens when they start dropping? - because if we're in CL, they will for sure. No question. Ange has shown zero ability to coach the B team how to defend as a unit in times of crisis. Our midfield is one big gaper. What makes you think this will change? There is no evidence whatsoever.
Let's be fair, he hasn't shown any ability to coach the A team to do that either, we just about get by due to the level of individual ability when they're playing.
 
Ive said it before and I will say it again, if he wins tomorrow night, I couldn’t give a solitary fuck if he’s on the touchline to start next season.

Should he come back in this scenario, he’d still be on an extremely short leash so I’m not too fussed one way or another. A slow start and he’s likely axed early days anyway.

Just lift that fucking trophy!
 
The idea that a football club would strategically decide to lose 20 plus games in the league intentionally is absolutely utter bollocks. Every place is the league costs the club millions of pounds. Along with various other degrees of damage/risk. Yeah footballs biggest penny pincher Levy would definitely agree to that.

Correct t.

Some of our fans just keep on creating narratives that are getting beyond ridiculous.

Who needs Tolkien and Rowling.
 
I'm all for continuity but to consider another season with Ange in charge would bring this club relegation
I have no doubt of that, would you be prepared to risk that on your try another track ethos
My guess is you're in the win a trophy on Wednesday and everything is just great again with your I always win 2nd season cunt
COYFS!!!!!!!!!
A/ he never said that...
B /If you really think the First eleven plus bench is relegation fodder ..then perhaps WATCHING football isn't really your thing , maybe try something a little more obvious, like tag wrestling or formula one.
And NOTHING can rectify this appalling.prem season but a little rational thought and reflection on its Pros and cons would be a positive from a negative rather than resorting to knee jerk unhelpful stupidity.
 
Funny cause Poch said the exact opposite of this before our CL final which IMO sent out all the wrong messages.

I think he's bluffing anyway, he can't say anything else because of the message it sends out.
He actually said right before this quote that “I’ve been in this position before where the big game is my last…..I qualified for the World Cup and left, won a treble at Celtic and left, won at Brisbane and left”.

He was then pushed on this in the next question and said the “no I don’t think my job here is done” quote.

On the condition Fabio picks the club purchases with one eye on the future: Ange should be treated with the expectation he’s going - no need to waste another window.

It's very possible (I hope) that he won't be here next season but he's not gonna walk, which the question was about, and honestly, why would he? If we win and he gets sacked, the club would probably say " mutual agreement" in the statement. If we lose, the wording would probably be less kind to him.

I'm the same, and I've wanted him sacked for over a year now.

He's made being a Spurs fan miserable. Utterly miserable.

However if we win tomorrow, I couldn't give a fuck if he stays (he won't). Because if he starts next season here, unless he starts the season by winning 6 straight games in the league, he'd be under immense pressure and he'll be sacked.

Just imagine he starts next season, after finishing 17th this season, and it's LLL or LDL or even LWL. If there's more than one or two losses in his first 6 games, he'll be sacked.

It's all pointless anyway because he's 100% getting sacked in a week or two.

"Not until I've got this team relegated"

Absolutely nothing wrong with that journo's question to him. He's bang on. If we lose tomorrow, this season is the worst by a distance for about 40 years.

Hella disrespctful coming from a journo especially a Tottenham Journo who has links to the club, leave that to the fans.

Eve of the biggest game we've had for years, those kind of questions and the timing of it is just disrespecting the club and overshadowing the occasion.

Dan KP got caught slipping

Thing is, it’s just normal and acceptable to throw disrespect like that around with Spurs and nobody calls it out.

This time it was
