Yeah. How can people still not get it? Simons has been poor and is really lightweight. Anything any manager does with selection is just rearranging the deckchairs on the titanic. We have no proper left winger, no proper right winger and 1 completely ineffectual no 10.

Management Roberto De Zerbi
- Thread starter The Fighting Cock
- Start date
Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports
Xavi - apart from Champions League matches has been TOTAL garbage in the league - I personally wouldn’t trust him.
Palinha - lmfao
Souza - the footage I saw in Madison’s latest YouTube video was very telling - Souza has 0 technique and needs to go on loan.
Tel - the only one I’ll concede should be getting a look in and probably will next match
And playing youngsters basically looks like we’ve given up on the league.
For me, Ange is at the root of it. He’s fostered a lack of discipline, and since then the players haven’t responded to any manager. This has been coming for ages.
Also, this group of donkeys aren't intelligent enough for this level. The decision-making in games is consistently poor.
Doesn't need a relegation clause, he'll just resign and give the club a month's notice.
Ok let's stick with how it is with the same players keep giving the likes of Solanke,Muani,Gallagher games and see how that goes
I don’t blame him for starting that XI in his first game. It was largely our “best” group.
But now that he’s seen the lack of passion and/or ability from many, there should be some significant changes. Udogie, Gallagher, RKM should all see the bench immediately.
For a manager who prioritises technical ability and wants his team to play football, playing Gallagher as the build up passer and playing Richy on the left were very strange choices.
You're probably right, unless he has to pay compensation to exit, even then Tottenham probably wouldn't pursue it. However, he is walking away from £50m (I think) so it is unlikely to happen.
These players are a bunch of useless wankers, will be glad to see the back of them, once the inevitable happens.
He will stay regardless, has been very public about that.
He was hopeful the chelscum Gallagher would turn up. Richy has played on the left many times. I thought he can be useful and quite a handful on the left. But Richy has to move to the front over Solanke now, at least after the hour mark if a sub has to be made.. Solanke was a luxurious shit at the moment and we are wasting one midfield spot.
Pointless appointment. You get a di zerbi halfway through the season, not when you’ve only got 7 games remaining. At this point you should have appointed someone like Sherwood for the transition into CL football.
Fucking useless owners. What they want is a club of korean tourists on go karts and beyonce concerts. The football side is just a hindrance to them.

I wasn't enamoured with his appointment but none of this is on him. He's going to have a relegation on his CV but nobody with half a brain will pin it on him.
He clearly picked on past reputation today and we can debate that but, once again, the players were wank.
There's no manager that can account for how these players play on the pitch.
They can't control the ball.
They make shit decisions.
Almost all are poor and lazy.

Who else was going to play in there? Sarr and Palhinha ain’t exactly Sergio Busquets.
Xavi, sure, but then you’re moving Bergvall back and playing two teenagers in the 6 and 8 roles against a physical Sunderland.
I hope he changes things next match out because it clearly didn’t work but again, I just can’t blame the man for putting out the XI he did in his first match.
Anyone but Gallagher who is arguably the worst MF we have in the squad to build up, Gray should have been the one building if anything.
Tell me what exactly does Gallagher do? Even the goal we conceded he was caught on his heels.
You’re preaching to the choir, brother.
I have made my feelings known in the Gallagher thread. Thought it was one of the worst MF performances I can remember in our shirt in years.
I am just saying that I can understand RDZ prematch picking him. It was a nightmare on the pitch, there is no doubt about that.
