Management Who do we need to cull

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

The only players I actually rate are Solanke, Maddison, Bentancur, Bergval, Romero and VDV and possibly Porro and Spence and some of them have question marks over them for different reasons. Apart from Moore who’s got a lot of potential I wouldn’t worry about anyone else going.

Our forward options are abysmal and the defence without the two centre backs probably the worst in the league.

So you rate Bentancur over Spence let's hear more
 
Daniel Levy
Scott Mun
Lange
Ange Postecluelus
All the coaching Staff including Mason.

Get in a manager with tactical nous, every player would look 100 times better with this fkin idiot
 
Daniel Levy.. parasite
Ange postenoclue..pub league manager
Ben davies..crap
Radu dragusin..crap
Pedro porro...notcas good as people think
Christian romero...not interested anymore
Reguillon................
Bissouma...crap
Bentancur....never getting back to his best
Maddison..past it..
B johnson.....crap
Werner...obviously crap and not ours
Sonny...love him, but the time has come unfortunately
Richarlison...crap
Fucking hell it's not until you write this down that you realise how shit we are...
That means that we should only keep.....

Antonin..
Vicario..
Spence..
Vdv..
Udogie..
Danso...
Gray..
Sarr..
Bergvall..
Kulusevski..
Odobert...still not sure on him
Moore..
Solanke....not sure about him either

That's 13 players , which includes some youngsters.........disgusting situation to get into.
And to be fair some of these players wouldn't be anywhere near any of the other big clubs...I'm thinking..
Sarr..
Solanke...
Maybe odobert too....
 
Would be easier to say who should we keep

Gray
Bergvall
Spence

The rest are either shit or have a fitness record on par with Ledders but not fit enough to lace his boots.
 
The problem with this "cull" approach is that many are on decent contracts and no-one wants to buy an out of form expensive player. If is also a huge write down on our squad value.

The key isn't culling players as much as finding a manager who can make them look good.

In addition to the above, We’re definitely not getting rid of the below and nor should we

Vicario
Kinsky
Udogie
Davies
Danso
VDV
Solanke
Kulusevski
Sarr
Moore
Odobert (jury is still out but injury means he hasn’t exactly had time to prove himself)
Maddison
 
Levy
The rest of the board
Munn
Lange
Postecoglou
The coaching team, including Mason

There are players that need to go but the above are the major problem. There should be consequences for this season, for this abysmal managerial appt and sticking with him long after it was obvious he was shit.

Ha!

A football manager is a human being mate, not a sorcerer.

Best of luck finding a manager that would make some of the chumps we have look good.

The difference in quality between Liverpools players and ours last night was absolutely galling.
 
who we should definitely keep for me is:

Vicario
Kinsky
Austin

Porro
Spence
Udogie

Danso
VDV
Dragusin
Vuskovic

Gray
Bergvall
Kulusevski
Sarr (although a big offer)
Maddison
Donley

Moore
Odoburt
Tel
Solanke

Leaves us needing:

CB
LB
CM
DM
RW
ST

Spence has played about ten games. I like him as I’ve put him in that group but still got it to prove. Great physically but technically on the ball a bit up and down under pressure. Bentancur didn’t have a good game yesterday but there’s not a midfielder in the world who would have.

The defence on the ball was shocking, swiping rashly at the ball instead of taking a touch or not carrying and manipulating the ball to create passing lanes into midfield. They didn’t play well but they just got hospital balls into them in deep midfield areas

Bissouma looked great at Brighton.
Solanke has come off the best season of his life at Bournemouth.
Son, while waning (probably) is regarded as a world class player by most of the world.
Maddison was Barclays player of the month multiple times when he arrived with us.
Romero a WC winner and defender of the year in Italy.
Dragusin also excellent performances in Italy.
Vicario had some of the best GK stats in the world.
Udogie got into the Italy squad off his performances there and start at Spurs.

etc.

Sure, some are harder to polish than others but Ange has managed to significantly reduce the market value of many of our established players.
