At least we're above them in THIS table!!

His post match quotes sums him up:
“We played better in the second half, but the game was lost. We started well (in the second half), one early goal could put us back in the match, but we didn’t achieve it. We had chances, a couple of moments, but the overall game wasn’t good at all.

The game was lost because he has a losers mentality...
We scored on 79minutes... a full 3 minutes before West Ham got their first goal in the 3-3 comeback last season...
I know it was a freak game, but they looked like they believed they could get back into it.... ours just screamed 'consolation' goal when we scored.
That mentality comes from the dugout... look what we did to Ajax... yes, another freak game, but it proves it CAN be done with a bit of belief...

Switch the scores around today, imagine WE were 3-0 up after half an hour... I'd still be shitting myself that they'd have come back into it.... in fact, we WERE 3-0 up in around half an hour or so against West Ham in the 3-3 game.... so that's probably why it sprung to mind!!!
 
No, he should be given time.

What he needs to do is stamp his authority and make big decisions. Kane shouldn't be playing at the moment.
 
He's had a lot to contend with, but just a terrible fit for us. Ramos style 2 points in 8 games vibes.

The dude at Brentford seems decent, we could get him surely?

The first half was the worst I think I’ve ever seen spurs play in my thirty years as a fan

Our tactic was ‘toe punt it up the pitch’ literally just that

I still have both halves vs Palace down as worse. I didn't think I'd ever see us make Crystal Palace look like Barcelona whilst we couldn't even get a shot away, but here we are.
 
He was always a cheap, last on the shelf appointment, but he's making a real mess of things. We don't even look well-organised. Fucking shipped 13 goals in 5 games! And don't look like scoring either.

A few more bad results and he'll be gone I reckon as was never a Levy appointment.
 
Conte is still available unbelievably. Not that he’d want to come here but he’s probably the best manager who’s available right now. Of Levy has any ambitions as a footballing chairman he would give the guy a blank cheque and just tell him to do his thing so he can stay the fuck away from football and focus on the business end of the club

We don't have the players for 3-5-2. He's also a defensive manager, although world class at it unlike Nuno.

The 6 games have basically been the Mourinho era condensed. Started well playing stodgy, defensive football. One big defeat, start fiddling to accommodate Ndombele and the team disintegrates.

Nuno’s only hope is to go back to the system he used at Wolves and stop pretending that he can give us attacking football. He needs to play the football he believes in and can actually coach. Supposedly his defensive football was why Paratici hired him. Stop trying to pretend you want to attack and win the games the way you think is best. Trying to win with a style you don’t really believe in can only end in tears.

But he didn’t try to play as to win today. His tactic if you can call it that was not press, sit back and hit long balls. And he gets paid a few million a year to come out with that shit! To boot he picks completely the wiring side to do that ! They guy is hopeless!
 
He has to go in my opinion ,
I absolutely dread to think where we are headed at the moment and those stats didn't help .
I'm not usually into stats , But they were an absolute horror show .
Where the hell do we go from here ?

Conte isn't the answer. He's another short-term fix and caution first coach. We also don't have the resources he wants (clearly) and would have to change the team drastically to play that way.

Potter whenever available, please. Similar to the Pochettino hire, plays the football fans actually want to see and a very good coach. Time we got back to being a team which works hard, tries to play on the front foot and is more than the sum of its parts.

He was the man for the job in the summer, but Levy only wants a coach who will tell him that the squad is fantastic, and just needs a slight bit of tinkering. Mourinho talked himself into the job this way.

Conte would tell him straight that the squad is crap and needs £200m spent on it, and that was likely how the meeting went in the summer.
