You need to look at the positives
There are no other managers in world football so who would we get ?
Ange needs to stay
You can’t deny the second half performance deserved a point at the very least, we fought hard but again, the issue is bigger than one game and one half of football.
“We outplayed them, Ange coached a win”
I think an Everton defeat after losing to Liverpool and Woolwich will do it.
We definitely put up a good fight in the second half. But it felt like it was way more just on effort than any sort of tactical shift or game management.
I still believe that we need a tactical/managerial change to avoid getting sucked into the relegation scrap. And I am unsure if Ange can provide that.

It doesn’t make it happen however many times you say it today!
He was on the bench before the bug hit. He is a centreback, Gray and Spence are not.
Ignore button getting a workout
More than just them, happy to play the 18 year old Gray at CB out of position but can't look at say 19 year old Dorrington in our own u21 side to fill in? With Austin's performance would we have really been worse off with him in the sticks than Forster?
I don't think Ange is very good at recognising talent frankly, I think he plays senior players at every given opportunity out of fear of being called out, and it's been massively to his detriment. We have run Kulu into the ground at the expense of giving Bergvall minutes despite looking bright in every appearance bar 1 or 2 10 min cameos so far. I could go along some way with the absolutely shocking results we've had if it actually felt like our youth players were rapidly progressing, in the mould of players like Kane and Alli when they came into the side at very young ages, but frankly the only youth player who has seen serious gametime is Gray and not one minute of that has come in his natural position. I won't fault him for Moore's injury but Dorrington and Lankshear's lack of inclusion frustrates me, there's no way you can convince me with the results we've had we'd have been worse off giving these guys a serious run out to see what they're capable of, particularly against some of the weaker EL and league opposition.
He needs to be left to hang around the box - we’ve been spoilt with Kane - Solanke’s a mobile target man and should be used as one.
This is the worse kind the ones who want insane support for the very people that made us this horrific dysfunctional mess. Supporting this is damaging Spurs full stop
Yeah don’t really see any options at the moment. I guess we never really know what happens behind the scenes but at the minute I don’t see it changing
Agree - also cant see why Bergvall has been used so sparingly
Was using season ticket price range tbh
