With our insanely low xG stats and if this is not improved consistently, I think we are in more danger of relegation this season than last season. Because we are not creating chances to score goals to win. It's basically that simple and it's alarming.

Pal is ok yet can’t get into Portugal midfield and deemed surplus for BM. A lot of people esp on you tube went waxing lyrical about him having orgasms. If he was that good we wouldn’t give the goon player so much room in front of OUR own box to play a ball into middle for first goal. He is slow when we are countered and he goes to ground too much. I’d say given his age send him back and develop gray or use the money to buy a young faster DM. If Brighton can find all these midfielders I’m sure we can too.
The other thing to factor in is ticket sales
They're already falling. When the Clubs pockets start taking a hit that doesn't go unnoticed.
And the style of play is the reason.
I don't think Frank is in trouble....yet. I just think this article is a summary of where things are right at this moment. Some players have concerns, there are also concerns about the lack of chance creation and record breaking low XG, but that also the club intend to give him time.
But I don't remember Ange getting articles written about him from Matt Law indicating there are concerns, until well into his second season. Maybe I have forgotten, but I remember paying attention because I thought Ange was a fraud and I wanted the media to start writing articles like Matt Law has, making noises that he would be sacked soon, but there was nothing.
Please someone correct me if I am wrong.
So all in all, it is not good for Frank that he already has Matt Law hinting that there are small issues behind the scenes 4 months into his tenure. That is never a good sign for any manager, and definitely not at Spurs.
No. But the noise will get louder. I'd be shocked if Frank was gone before the end of the season, if he is, it means the season has turned into a disaster.
Yes. The ' new ' ENIC won't want to risk a growing resentment within the fanbase and another winter of discontent regarding protests.
If they think Frank is becoming a liability, financial or otherwise., they'll pull the trigger. I have no doubt about that
Yeah he's a massive grifter who constantly profits off the fanbase, I literally predicted that he'd be cooking up some bullshit article about his bogus sources and dressing room unrest earlier this morning and alas...
Me to mate. But we'll need to improve our attacking play that's for sure.
This is so weird. you seem to be under the impression that I want Frank to be doing badly? I want him to succeed. Unlike you I'm not sharpening the knives about to stab him in the back.
You stated that Frank had improved us defensively. All I did was point out that is FACTUALLY INCORRECT.
That's it. I don't know why you get so sensitive about being corrected on matters of record. Don't you care about truth?
Phomesy - how do you rate Sean Dyche in comparison to Ange? Dyche seems to have a better record with Forest right now. Is that just a freak occurrence of statistics or something? Do tell.
This is yet another perfect example of Ange Derangement.
What you people can never comprehend (because of your Derangement) is that I'm not putting up an argument to say Postecoglou is a "great manager". That has NEVER been my thesis.
All I do is post FACTS about his tenure here. You don't like hearing these facts because of your Derangement.
This now extends to asking me what I think of Sean Dyche in comparison to Ange? Are you for real?
Here's the simple answer - I don't think about it AT ALL. It is of ZERO INTEREST to me, Because neither of them are current Spurs managers. I'm am not obsessed nor Deranged by whatever illness has infected you Derangers. I talk about the facts of Postecoglou's tenure here only inasmuch as it helps to inform expectation and understanding of where our SQUAD is at.
Here's a simple test. Go check the Postecoglou thread. See when the last time I posted in there was. And when the last time YOU posted was.
Then maybe you'll start to see my point about Ange Derangement.
You and harry7 together are the absolute embodiment of Ange derangement syndrome.
There's nothing I really find interesting to discuss with you about it anymore. The man finished 17th with us. He got fired from Forest without picking up a win- shortest tenure in PL history. All you want to do is continue riding his dick though.
It's boring AF. The past is the past. Let's move on eh?
Our fans seem desperate to sack managers with no real idea how or who would replace them. Addicted to turmoil.
Frank is an okay manager, nothing more. I think it says more about how well run Brentford have been, even Keith Andrews is doing ok there. Same for Brighton, the club is well run and good scouting, the managers reap the rewards and it looks like they are perhaps better than they are. Potter, de zerbi etc aren't moving on to bigger and better things.
You always want to see a new manager do really well but hard to see it with Frank unfortunately

I know who I’d rather have!!
Forest will probably finish top half of the table probably ahead of us!
Wouldnt of thought we were that high to be honest19th in chances created in the league
Just not capable of thinking more than 1 day ahead.
Mate you can pretend I'm saying something I'm not - nor ever have.
But if you post stuff that is factually untrue I will correct you on it. I know it's embarrassed you so you're lashing out here but genuinely I'm just trying to help you become a better person.
