Howes first season in the champs league saw them knocked out in the group and sink to eighth in the premier league.
There in lies the difference. Ange will win the champions league and will have the squad believing that.
Seeing Inters heads drop after the first goal showed the importance of belief. Those players were resigned to losing the second that goal went in. Similar to
Poch's Spurs team.
All very low level leagues. None of them are in the top 20 leagues.....
It seems it’s down to three. 1. Ange stays, 2. Frank and 3. Silva
Whatever happens we mustn’t get Silva. He’s done ok at Fulham but was shit at Everton.
The bigger question is why Levy is procrastinating so much. The window is open and he can’t even decide on a manager ffs! Don’t expect any player signings soon.
It’s been said that Levy buys players late in the window because he’s trying to get a bargain. I think it’s because he can’t make his mind up. He’s a commitment phoebe

Bring in Frank or Silva and Romero, Bentancur won't be signing new contracts, and id imagine Porro and Udogie would instruct their agents to find them a way out.
Europa League isn’t
Winning every league you’ve ever played in doesn’t reflect badly on you just because they aren’t the PL.
Pep just hired an assistant directly from the Australian league. Good coming and good ideas are about more than just the level of players in the league.
If anything it’s harder to coach less skilled players.
I don't see what is all the hype about Thomas Frank. He is the danish version of Sam Allardyce.
iraola got sacked from a very low league because his team in cyprus didnt win a match for 2 months
Hopefully the cultists drink the coolaid when he ascends
Do you expect any less from him at this stage?
Still be better than what we have.
I work with a Brighton season ticket holder.
He said RDZ stropped out of Brighton because he was promised money to spend and not given it.
Made a name and career for himself by going and filming at the stadium a few times a week when it was being built.
Fair play, but ain't nobody watching that for hours.
Literally all of them, including the Europa league, are journeyman trophies.
The man is not Premier LEAGUE level
There's no hype ... No top managers want to work for our bald cunt and many here just think Frank will do better than Ange ... Frank is a very mediocre hiring imho but then, we're now a very mediocre club at best ...
Don't see anyone super excited/shooting off fireworks about Frank - though many here will be very relieved (perhaps even excited) to see Ange going ... the sentimental (and morbid) part of me wants to keep Ange on to see how it goes - but then I genuinely believe we'll be a car wreck with Ange and ECL next season so time for change ...

Vast majority of those points came before he got sussed out and before he coached the residual talent out of the squad.
Can you admit you're not a spurs fan and jog on?

It's true that Ange supporters who came out of the shadows after the cup win, or who switched sides in his favor because of it, will have the luxury of never being proved wrong.
If Ange goes then they can always claim he would have done better if the next manager fails, even though Ange has done worse than any manager we've had in modern times. And if the next manager succeeds, they will try to credit Ange for "changing the culture" or claim that he'd have done just as well, even though he's been leading the team downward and downward for 2 years now.
I don't know how much his reputation improved at Spurs either. It's obvious that in the PL he was out of his depth, and not by only a few fathoms. He never beat our rivals. He was never in danger of winning a cup until this last improbable success.
Wouldn't you look at a manager like him and say this all proved that he can not do it at the PL level? What PL club wants to bet their future on him?
That’s just it though, he won’t have those players. It’s why we’re shit whoever is the manager.
Stops man in street.
“Excuse me sir “
“Can you tell me why a manager would leave Brentford FC for one of the Premier leagues big 6, a club with immense history with a 62k stadium, CL football next season and who have recruited some of the best managers in world football over the last 10 years??”
Person you are asking the question to ……….
22 defeats in the league. I want some of the juice you are on.
It’s definitely what experience tells us. Levy is never proactive and ahead of the game.
In regards to Frank, he is pretty charismatic, I think from that perspective he could woo Levy and also get the Ange cult onside pretty quickly with some smooth talking.
