Manager Igor Tudor

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

All the people who backed the board in not reinforcing the squad because they "didn't want to buy players for a manager who would be gone in a few month's time", are you now starting to see the farce in the idea that buying good players for the team will in any way harm our prospects? Would we be worse off if we had lashed £250m on bringing in first team quality LW, RW and CM (not fucking Gallagher)?

Anyone that still backs this board is a born loser

The posters, whoever they were did not make the decision not to buy players. The wretched board did that.

It was clear as day we needed 2 or 3 more plsyers, specifically a striker.
 
I'd rather us go for a club man like Mason, maybe working with an old stalwart like 'Arry, over Dyche.

Dyche would want a long term deal and his style isnt too different from Frank. Think we need something new rather than more long ball shite.
 
Dyche would just be a swearier balder version of Frank ( if such a thing is possible) .

But , it might just work.
The last remotely successful season in Dyche's career was before Covid, at a club he'd spent years painstakingly crafting to play his football.

The idea that because they have similar philosophies that Dyche is a temporary escape artist the way Sam Allardyce was is just dumb superstition, it's not real.

Big Sam himself hasn't guided a team to safety since 2018. This is outmoded thinking in general.
 
Anyone who claims that we should be losing at home to Palace because our players are worse than theirs needs to question his understanding of the game. It's obviously down to Tudor's inability to motivate the players and a lack of a tactical setup. The players are lost and unmotivated. That is not because they are Championship level, it's because the man in charge is clueless without any charisma. His actions at the sideline today clearly showed why he doesn't earn any respect from the players.

We should have been better at Fulham, and I would like to think nobody thought Palace had a better team rhan us,but the heir apparent to VanDijk (Imean really) fcuked us over there.

I see it however as4 games, lots of words and no better than the sh!t of his predecessor

Get rid,and whilst it's laughable, it's also necessary.

Shut up...

The roots of the problem go a lot further back than one fucking January window.
 
We need more than one player... The problem was, to have any chance, we need an almost complete squad overhaul, a manager with fecking brains...

Even if we got in loans, it wouldn't have been enough.
We also need to have more than 37 points, but what a fucking savior 37 points would be right now.

That's the point. The rot at the club goes very, very deep, but the absolutely unimaginable catastrophe of relegation could have been averted (or at least forestalled) in January.

They didn't think it was possible to be where we are right now, they hoped they could limp to the end of the season with Frank in 14th or whatever, and they were wrong.

Nah, nothing could have been done in January, it's just like painting over dirt.
