Once again you are wrong as usual.

If that ball curls in nobody says what a poor play by Steffan they talk about the great shot by GLC, who was known for his shooting ability while at Real Betis.

It was a good chance because they was a decent shot it could go in, it wasn't a speculative shot hoping the goalie would fuck up it was a quality shot from a good position with a good chance of going in or forcing the goalie to make a quality save.

If all you count as quality chances are sure fire goals then you need to change your view of a quality chance. That shot was 100% a quality chance, sorry that it makes you angry that we had one and that GLC was the guy who made the good play, but your crying doesn't change reality.

From the response so far, it would appear that more than 70 % of the fan base are happy with our current plight, looking forward to the next 5 games and happy that once again we came 2nd.
I apologise for expressing a view that Mason's first two games have not filled me with any confidence and that other choices must have been possible.
Maybe I should relax and let my team sink to 9th or 10th, lose all their best players and go back to where we were before Jol, happy days.

I think we are more realistic than you. There's a new man set up already, he can't take over yet for whatever reasons, and someone has to step into the breach.
Ryan's won one and lost one. Hardly relegation fodder and certainly no worse than 15m pound a year toxic Jose so don't play the ' maybe I should relax and let them sink back into mediocrity' bullshit path: it's the best we could expect and on the plus side, Jose is gone.
 
Embarrassing thread. We have an interim manager for two months and some of you can't handle it after a week. I would much rather get the right appointment for the long term. It is extraordinary that there are people who think a top manager, who happens to be available during the season, will manage a shit Spurs team for two months without signing a longer contract.

Ryan ain’t manager material

I’m Spurs till I die but sorry I’m not drinking the cool aid. Seen that rubbish at Liverpool with king kenny and all their “best in the werrrryeeeeelllddddd in their position” players. Lamps at chelski also

Yeah, enjoy that kool aid guys. Ryan’s a club legend but he ain’t manager material. And right now we are *****

You formed that opinion off one game!

Ok, then based on this one post, I think you’re a gooner.

It would be absolutely terrible management to fire an interim manager (who will only coach 5 more games) after 2 games which we’ve performed at the expected level.

Our organization would lose any credibility we have left and it would just be undeservedly embarrassing to mason.
 
I was as dissapointed as anyone that we didn't give it more of a go yesterday, but come on. Had we won some people here would have been asking today why he hasn't been offered a 5 year contract yet.

Not going to happen for the reasons you’ve stated
 
Winks 90 mins gameplay. No bale, no Ndombele, no alli, no rodon. Substitutions brings off moura ( only decent performance) brings off hojberg ( only solidity in midfield).. Possibly the worst managerial display humanly possible.. Just left with ifs and if onlys. Decision making is ruining the club..p.s.. I do still like Ryan, it was unfortunately inevitable.

I doubt anybody is happy with our current standing, but our plight isn’t Ryan Mason’s fault.
The result yesterday was mostly expected; City have a better squad than us and are definitely better coached. There’s also no way anyone could have undone the last 17 months in just six days. Mason’s only other game in charge has been a win so I’m not sure what more we could ask of him?

There’s only one person to blame for our current predicament and that Levy. It would be ridiculous to sack our interim manager after two games for getting the results that we’d expect. We’d be a laughing stock and it would be embarrassing. If he can get top six in the league then great, but if not we move on to next season hopefully with a decent manager in and a more cohesive squad. The damage was done months ago and allowed to get progressively worse. The decision to remove José should have been made weeks or even months ago not a week before a cup final.

hope he learns from mistakes, we are not playing in the park
he told the team to play like a Jose team so why sack Jose last week ?
why didn't Levy get Hoddle in till the end of the season, ho yes it would have cost money

Ryan is a cheap option till the end of the season
