Are you Frank Out or In?

Leadership is about so many qualities. So so many.

When they are absent on and off the pitch, it's very difficult to find a basis to be positive.

Tomorrow is a pivotal day, and this manager's paymasters need to have a plan in the event of that worst case scenario by 10pm. Mind you....

Buf if you have no leadership,and no leaders, why would anything be expected to change.

All things will be crossed, but it's very hard to imagine a physically and mentally weaker group of players or a manager so absolutely unsuited to their role.

Used the word desperate several times and very deliberately…

Seems like he’s maybe feeling like this is last chance saloon

He is right about that really. The sulking has got to be put on the shelf along with the whole we deserve better mantra. The home fans need to start really getting behind the team and making a difference. All the other teams fans down near the bottom will be.

At the moment, being positive at a game is like being cheerful at your own sacking.
 
What makes you think they are not still around. I often see new usernames with 4/5 stars for posts and they have just changed the username.

Fair point

Arcespace did come back as Young Berbatov but kept on in the ArceSpace style and got canned!

I know Schmoodspurs is back on here posing as a policeman!!
 
Goals conceded numbers for a few other managers who are commonly labelled as shut up shop merchants:

Moyes: 892 goals in 703 EPL games---> 1.26
Nuno: 277 goals in 204 EPL games---> 1.35
Dyche: 490 goals in 349 EPL games---> 1.40
Allardyce: 759 goals in 541 EPL games---> 1.40
Pulis: 415 goals in 322 EPL games---> 1.28

Frank with his 1.46 is behind all of them even in a straight up comparison; and I cannot envision that number not going up in an alternative reality where Frank is treated as the ultimate saviour by heavy underdogs in precarious situations.

Those who recruited Frank didn't do their homework if that's what they had in mind with this appointment.

I agree with Mr milquetoast on this

The fans now need to leave the toxic stuff out during the game . We need to collect points, boo every touch of the opposing team, make it uncomfortable for their players and the ref
Try and get confidence into the attackers
 
Funny how anyone who doesn't join the "everything is rubbish" circle jerk is automatically a troll. I’ve been going to the Lane since before most of you lot knew how to type, so believe me, I'm as Spurs as they come. I’m just not reactive.
It’s actually hilarious that you’d rate a genuine tactical analysis a "7 for trolling" while ignoring that Thomas is literally taking us to the highest highest levels in Europe. If out-thinking the likes of Real Madrid and PSG with half a squad is "trolling," then I hope he keeps doing it.
I get it—you’re emotional because of the league form. But I’d rather have a world-class master tactician who has us feared in Europe than go back to the days of "vibes" and getting battered by mid-table sides. Keep your ratings, I’ll keep my eyes on the Champions League trophy and the inevitable charge for the top four once the injury crisis clears up.
See you on Tuesday for the Newcastle masterclass.
Real Madrid you say?.......let your mask down there, begone .
