I think this thing about players seething is just bollocks.

What exactly are they seething about? They get paid very well to lose games for the last 2 seasons essentially.

It's a game of football. Just beat the other team. They have a new manager, after getting the last one sacked so surely they can't still be mad at the new guy too.

I can understand the lack of confidence, and the injuries being a reason why we are losing so many games. But the main reason is a lack of effort, pride, focus, professionalism, and just lots of really poor decisions on and off the pitch, and basically a lack of proper team spirit.

Of course the players won't be happy, but the only seething should be at themselves in the mirror.

I don't get who the players are supposed to be angry at? Makes no sense.

It's an extremely unlikable group of players, I can see it being true. So few of them will be missed when we punt them.

I know many are unlikeable, the main reason we are where we are, apart from the injuriues, is basically, our playing squad is toxic. Too many primadonas. But my point is, who are they seething at? Frank has gone.

Romero, VDV, Porro, Vicario can all fuck off. Bissouma will go.

There will be a new dawn soon.
 
I was one who felt gobsmacked by the chuckle brothers’ hiring of Tudor seemingly without realising that our personnel do not suit his system, but if they wanted to hire him before they hired Frank how could they not have known it?

So you choose a man to save us using a system the players do not know and do not fit, and when their ranks are reduced to nothing?

We do not have a word in the language strong enough to describe the level of incompetence at this club.

If they were interlopers who’d crept in as enemies to send us down what would they be doing differently?
Tudor is very clearly a Fabio recommendation, most likely because the Chuckle brothers didn't have a clue who to employ.

Most likely the ownership, whipped up by our shite captain!
 
I've been banging on for ages now about how modern football is dead, ruined by VAR, foreign ownership has ruined the game etc etc etc.

Basically, saying I'm a Spurs fan but 'hey, I don't really care anymore what happens'.

That's crap. This relegation threat is on my mind every minute of every waking moment. It hurts like fuck. I have no confidence that we'll stay up, or that we'll bounce back if we go down.

My love of Spurs will never die, but it's amazing me that this thing of ours is so deep in our psyche.

Sorry for the rant, folks. Up the Spurs.

Angry about a potential 50% pay cut
 
If we can get Kudus, Bergvall, Udogie, Kulusevski and Maddison back at least for the last 7-8 games we have a chance. If not I think it is over. The club need to do everything to speed up recovery time, work as hard on the injured players as the fit ones.
I think we need to come to terms with the fact that Maddison and Kulu are not coming back this year. Kulu hasn't even started grass work yet. And even if they somehow do, Madders hasn't played since August, and Kulu will have been out for well over a year. They're going to take weeks or months to get back into match shape.
 
All gone downhill. Should of never sacked Mourinho. Would’ve won the league by now.

Yup. Fabios a dodgy fucker but I doubt his idea was wait until we're circling the drain with the window shut then do it.

We're probably better off without him but I can see why he wanted out.
Oh for sure. He had his flaws but he clearly wanted to compete. His interview when he took the Fiorentina job more or less laid it out that the people above him at Spurs had no idea how to.
