Fuck me, he actually has learnt nothing!

This will be a beautiful disaster.
Did he have much of a choice? They were with him last season and know how Ange operates. They can hit the ground running.

An appointment mid season doesn't provide much opportunity to bring in new coaching blood because the coaches you would consider are probably already in a position at another club. And it would cost more money to pry them out. Nuno's trusted assistants were unlikely to stay due to loyalty to Nuno.

In the off-season provides much more opportunity to change out coaching staff.

He has his full press conference today ahead of the game against the scum, so we will find out if he is going to persist with the same suicidal tactics there. Although I do have a funny feeling he might turn them over.Although I do have a funny feeling he might turn them over

Hudson Odoi has come out and said the training session they had yesterday was very tough, so he is obviously going to beast them in training and pick up the same injuries.
 
Bizarre levels of interest, and all manner of bo!!ocks being made-up or construed.

No mention of Frank, our actual manager since Monday morning.

Mental.

I just hope we dont see that oh so possible ser of results on Saturday

Frank doesn't need the shadow of Postecoglou around him in a job that is difficult enough.

Interesting logic.

Anyhoo, there’s not enough room on the trophy for all your footnotes. It just says Tottenham Hotspur WINNERS 2025.

Careful calling others not that bright when you don’t exactly have the spelling, punctuation & grammar of a teacher mate.

But you were happy we won, yes?

In how many languages do you have better grammar than I have in English (which is my 2nd language) :) ?

Yes, I do not dispute that we won that competition.
And obviously between options of "winning it" and "not winning it", I prefer former.

But let's stay realistic what is this competiton level compared to other trophies and competitions, that's my point. It amuses me that purely because we won it, people act like it's something way bigger than it really is. As I said before, we can mock and banter Woolwich regarding it and whatnot, but between ourselves we can maybe reflect bit more realistically on things. Winning a competition where best teams from England or not from any other country else participate is not about "being best" it could only be "best of the rest".
 
"incomparably weaker than Carabao cup"

Absolute guff you talk.

Stoke, Sheffield Wednesday, Barrow, Coventry, AFC Wimbledon, and Preston all featured in the rounds of the Caribou Cup.

Porto, Roma, Galatasaray, Ajax, Anderlecht, Leon, Real Sociedad, Athletic Club, Rangers and United in the Europa League.

Why do you chose to pick random small teams? Do you get it that for winning something, you have to beat the best teams in competiton. Not worst ones.

In Europa League qualifiers literally Faore Islands and Ažerbaijan took part in it.

But do you know who did not? Liverpool, ManCity, Woolwich, Newcastle, Aston Villa etc. Who all participated in Carabao.

If you can't understand wider contexts then look at much more simplistic example - to lift EL trophy, we had to overcome Manchester United.

To win FA Cup final you had to overcome Manchester City.
To win Carabao cup final you had to beat Liverpool.

Easy enough to follow?
For winning you have to beat best teams in tournament. Not weakest ones in early round.
 
Forest have a team more suited to Ange ball, he will do a decent job with those players IMO, got some good players there with some excellant technicians, their wing pairing of Hutchinson/CHO and McAtee/Bakawa is better than what he had here, not to mention MGW, Anderson, Ania, Luiz, Zinchenko - you got some really good technicians there comfortable in receiving the ball in tight spaces - will be interesting to see how it turns out.

Hopefully terribly.

Fuck that guy. Such a prick.

Why does it matter how many languages I speak? Foolish question.

Perhaps English not being your 1st you can’t read the room very well.

Obviously the CL is a bigger competition. Your position of trying to belittle our UEFA league win for us is peculiar. It also doesn’t matter in the test of time. We won it. We are winners. It was a glorious night. Thats what this game is about.

Not sure whether your attitude is arrogance, ignorance or just trolling.

Personally I think you’re just an idiot who wants to drag people down to their level and beat them with experience.

До свидания! 👋
 
I 'd like some see some ultra high line for the back-4 in the quest for ange-ball at forest.
Milenkovic especially.
1st up: Arse v Forest......can't wait

recipe for failure:
Forest also confirmed Postecoglou will be reunited with his Spurs coaching team of assistants Mile Jedinak, Nick Montgomery and Sergio Raimundo, and goalkeeping coach Rob Burch.

It will mean the same Australian flavour to his Spurs regime being transported 210km north as he reunites with his trusty right-hand man, 41-year-old assistant Jedinak, who was his choice for captain as long ago as 2014 when he managed the Socceroos at the World Cup.

Weirdly, I really don't give a fuck.

Didn't want him sacked after the EL and don't get me wrong, I'm eternally grateful....

But he's at another club now so fuck him. It's not as bad a Poch going to the blue scum but I think the whole MGW saga stinks of his involvement somewhere and regardless of me having zero fucking evidence, that'll do for me. Until he leaves Forest, he can fuck off.

ok
 
For what?
Stating facts ?

That biggest teams in England do participate in Carabao and FA cup? But do not participate in Europa League?

Okay, well sure then.
Print the following line out.
"pleb is the fannest fan of all"
"and Sprus_1987 too"

Cause he is happy to win horse race while driving a Ferrari.
He asks no questions, he does not aim to win most prestigious prizes.
He says what we already have is the best :D .

Good job, you are doing fanstuff right! :D

P.S - sorry. I will stop now. I sometimes have to remind that football fans are not the brightest of them all.
And cannot grasp objective reality of things. Or put some things into any context. It is just simple for some - shiny thing. Gooood. No shiny thing- baaaaad.

P.P.S - getting to CL final is 10x the achievement. Then we were 2nd best team of Europe.
Last year we were 37th best team in Europe. Like Championship winner is 21st team in England.
You're a dill mate and a Gooner to boot!
