So utterly predictable, we are unbelievably bad but what do you expect when you hire the Brentford manager with the way he had them playing.

This was obviously an awful appointment from the start, akin to hiring david moyes, except I think Moyes would have us higher.

I can't believe anyone thought this would work.

Fuck off Thomas Wank

Not posted for a couple for a months as just bored of it all, only so long you can tolerate being shit and boring and this has been going on for 6 years now. Bang average to poor players, no one gets you off your seat, the recruitment has been abysmal. This isnt Franks fault per se, its Levys legacy of scrimping around looking for youth and bargains but its increasingly clear he isnt going to turn this fucking mess around. Like Nuno and others he appears out of his depth, shame but no point being in denial about it Thought give him to the end of the season and see where we are as Glasner, Naglesmann, Poch, Tuchel and others will all be free but how long do you tolerate this shite?

I understand waiting till the end of the season, but that then means anyone we bring in in Jan may not meet the new managers needs
 
Let’s blame another scapegoat! The players, the staff, the board, they’re all fine. It’s all down to one bloke who hasn’t been able to work with such perfect tools and materials. Fuck me. Like Putin or Kim chucking their latest general over the balcony. Morons if we think the manager is the problem.

There isn’t one “the” problem. The rot is everywhere. But this tactics-averse, lifeless fraud who had the temerity to tell us who the “real Tottenham fans” are is a part of it.
 
He's having a competition with himself on the worst performances ive seen from us in recent years, it' just stinks.

Looks like we're gonna have to plod along like this the whole season and get in a new man in the Summer whether that will be Glasner, Poch or Xavi or someone like that.

We may as well had Kept Ange in the job lol

The decision making is abysmal. We finished 17th, the players nailed their colours to the mast that they werent good enough and didnt mind losing and we 1 sold 1 player, Son. To compound that we then give new contracts to Davies and Bentancur and sign Tel on a permanent. Its just incompetence.
 
You could parachute Pep, Klopp, whoever you like in and they’re not getting a tune out of these donkeys!

When you’ve got players like Bentancur who seemingly can’t make a simple five yard pass, what hope does any manager have?!

Our recruitment has been sub-par for quite some time.
 
Watching this club week in and out, it’s apparent to me that we are one of the worst sides in the league.

We consistently get outplayed by pretty much every opposition we come up against. Wolves, a team with 2 total points at Christmas time, should have taken all 3 points on our soil if not for a stoppage time goal.

We’re lucky we’ve accumulated a few wins because on the whole, we’re getting consistent relegation level performances.
 
We've gone from Ange managing us like we were the best team in the world to Frank managing us like we're Brentford.

Opposite approaches and both deeply flawed.

Frank needs to go but there's not much point in that happening until the summer because who the fuck else are we going to bring in now?
 
My biggest concern, other than the lack of plan B, is that when we go behind I don’t think he has the methods to turn the game around.

Unless a team is leaving big space in behind it’s just spam crosses and hope it works like Newcastle away.

Frank is a nice guy, results are unpredictable, but the football is garbage and it will not change. No harm in losing if you have a good go and show some fluency in attack. However Frankball is absolutely terrible to watch and it was the same at Brentford.

You don't think a better coach could do better than 0.3 XG? It's not a one off either, game after fuckin game its no shots on target or 1 if we're lucky.

A squad full of internationals at top 20 ranked countries and at under 21 level can't perform better then this?? Especially at home? Unable to make basic passes or play through balls or close down long range efforts on goal , make a simple string of attacking passes together..

Nah not buying it, he's either a shite coach or the players have zero respect for him. Either option is no good for Frank staying here past the summer
 
The squad is inept aside from Van deVen & Romero who’s world class? Not one of them if Simons was of any use as was Tel we wouldn’t have them……Bentacur, Palinha, kulesevski , Odbert, Kudus all bang average not one is a first team regulars in any team in the top half of the league Frank is not blameless he should by now have a formation and with the squad he’s got play to their strengths what they are I’m not sure but…….+ we’re not aggressive enough Romero & Van de Ven get stuck in fine but we’re too light weight everywhere else unless we stick with him give him time to turn it round get he’s only had Simon & Kudus , Paulina & Muani are loaned or twist but back to square One AGAIN
