I’d even take Conte back.

I did shit on his dull tactics towards the end, but think of he was really backed, we’d actually be decent.

At least we’d know he’d get rid of the soft/shit ones.

Only real mistake he made was to never play Spence, but hindsight is 20/20.
Again look at what he has done since moving on, takes a weakened Napoli team and they are sat top of Serie A! We burn through great mangers and some shit. But all the good ones have said the same about us. We will never be a top team until the owners back managers. 8th richest club in the world. 3rd highest grossing club in Europe I think. All we do is sign or loan shite and shite that current manager never really wants or needs. It's fucking tragic. I just pray for the day we get brought out. Cant see it being for years yet. Not while Lewis is alive
 
So disappointed, didn't even make a fight of it. Once they got their noses in front, the result was a foregone conclusion, just a question of how many we'd concede :(
Men against boys, but the boys actually played better than our seasoned internationals!
Gonna be a long journey home. Wish I could do a Samantha in Bewitched!
 
The gulf in class or quality was plain to see and I don’t think any of us could have thought the result was unexpected.

But, irrespective of the differences in quality, the lack of fight for a semi-final was a hard watch, the continual misplaced passing in midfield, the zero attempts on goal, getting caught time and again in the transitions was equally poor. Not taking off Bentancur and or Sonny sooner and then bringing on Mikey Moore when we’re already 4-0 down just looked like every decision was being made on the hoof. Really poor.
 
4-0 is just not acceptable.
Inability of midfield to beat their press was painful.

We’re not at their level ; however much it hurts me to say it .

The last two goals were give-aways when we’d been outmatched and the players knew that .

We couldn’t beat LFC at home tonight; many other sides wouldn’t have either ; It’s Where We Go From
Here ; that really counts.

Let’s see what happens

Some are happy with mediocre. They happy with an entertaining game, even when the entertainment is the ball hitting the back of our net.

Some don't use their brain at all. I had someone slag me for posting that Ange needs to play a No6 who can marshall the MF. His argument....."But we don't have such a player". I guess he believe because we don't have a 'Real No6', we need to leave the role vacant
For what it’s worth I agree, a solid ball winning no 6 who works hard for the team and does the ugly stuff no body wants to do would be great at spurs - that Kante mould. It would be a great foil for the forward players, where we have plenty of talent - when all fit of course!
 
6,000 spurs supporters went up there to stand through that
...and they mentioned it ONCE on TV!
Imagine we THAT were Newcastle or Liverpool fans travelling?
They'd have been wanking on about it until the Final... and then they'll just do it some more!
The staff and players should refund all our supporters inside Anfield this evening, it's been that feeble.
Are you gonna ask him, or shall I...?
 
Levy's ego. Cant deny superb businessman but any threat to levy's ego theres only one winner. Sad.
Yep. As much as I hate that bald cunt with a passion and trust me there is a common theme to my post, most are against him. He is great at business, but awful at owning a football club. He's set us up to be a power house and now choking the life from us. If he sold us to the Qatari's now and we got a new top manger we would be winning trophies within 3 seasons
 
FWIW : I don’t think we did THAT badly tonight; especially the fist half .
We did very badly tonight, we didn't compete. We didn't create upfront, not brilliant at the back, poor in the middle. No single player rose for the occasion as if the team knew the outcome before a ball was kicked. We looked miles behind in every department, the gap was big 4-0.
