Its the same level zero fucking change from what I see, deserve...meh. Its just feels, in some odd way Ange 'felt' better for some. Me I hated losing. Its the same shit now as then, breif periods where we compete followed by the inevitable capitulation. We've been reduced to counting shots on target as our metric of coaching success. We have made a couple of catastrophic coaching hires the ramifications will last a long time.

Football clubs CANNOT run as companies. You see the outcome before your very eyes now. First and foremost they must be run as sporting institutions to maximize potential.
We’ve got a gooner at the head of the table and a gooner in the dugout
It’s gross incompetence

So we'd need to have signed more players in the summer transfer window than the amount of injured players we had.Eh? If you can't see that we needed more than Solanke and Gray in a summer leading into Europe and playing twice a week - and if you can't see the catastrophic effect of that transfer window still being felt today - I don't know what to tell you.
Don't you see the obvious point here? Say we signed 6 new players that summer, we'd still have been in the negative with injuries compared to the prior seasons.
We'd have done just as well with 6 fewer injuries, as Postecoglou did in his first season, no?
I also think it was a mistake to loan/sell PEH, he had a use late in matches to help defensively and had a good playing relationship with Bentancur.
We played 41 games season 1. And still had a fuck ton of injuries. We played more than 60 games in his second season and you could argue that letting Hoijberg and Emerson leave, plus Son rapidly declining the squad was worse. We spent a lot of money that summer but he wasn’t properly backed, Solanke was the only senior player brought in.
I have no idea what argument you think you're having now I'm afraid...
I need to go out now so won't reply until later or tomorrow.
For example, isn't signing 6 new players the same as having 6 players that you already want in the team not being injured.
So without all those the injuries, we'd have had just as much of an adequate team, than we'd have had by having them injured but signed more players in the summer.
People need to count the squad size we had going into that season.
Having a fit squad is the same as having 6 new players and 6 injured players.Fuck are you on about?
It's easy to comprehend. And those same players got us to 5th the season before.
Take a break if you're confused., I'm going out now too.
not if you sign any old shit to make up the numbers.
Losing pros like Hoijberg and Emerson and replacing them with kids is not the same.
Signing a 19 year old left back that’s never played at this level isn’t going to be adequate cover for Udogie’s inevitable breakdown.
Signing a limited Dragusin doesn’t fix Micky missing months with hamstring injuries.
If as reported Xavi would be interested in taking the Spurs job then why is Frank still here. No other club, Premiership or not would have let this go on. We are candidates for relegation and anyone who thinks we are not is either living in cloud cuckoo land or a member of the club board.
You're still wrongly under the impression we played a back 4.......
We didn't.
Wrong fit
Talk all day long if people want about the odd few minutes of something promising, or whatever. Means nothing. Same as every game we play, we flit from this abd that plsyer being good, bad or awful, from future star to wasted money. It's dog sh!t analysis.
Poor decisions, poor play, reliance on set-pieces, nothing progressive.
It's not what we need and it could not really be any clearer, and if we were 10th, it would still not make it right or worth pursuing with.
Nothing us going to be won, Frank-style. Not even a manager of the month award.
It's way past boring now, and we are just beung laughed at.
Money matters, but right man at the helm matters even more.

think the board are wait for the summer to bring Poch, because they think tht will get the fans on side
IMO, my own theory, is we're going to risk it all to align ourselves with Poch in the summer.
We're not gonna do a damn thing unless we actually drop into the bottom 3, no matter how bad it gets.
If we get anyone now, Poch takes another job after the world cup and we're back in the same scenario of waiting for him again.
Either we end it now and accept he's never coming back or we suffer a few months of humiliation.

He went winless in a month and got knocked out of the league cup by Swans. That tells you all you need to know about what would've happened had he stayed here.
Should tell you the report is bullshit.
