Has a full squad but not enough games
Has a full squad but too many games
Has a full squad but too short pre season
Doesn't have squad due to injuries
Has full squad but can't be judged cause some are coming back from injuries
Has full squad but is focusing on Europa


What are the conditions where a judgement is allowed on his use of the squad?


Is there anyone left defending him at this stage?
 
Ossie Ardiles must be cursing his luck. His team with the Fantastic Five was so exciting upfront. and had no defense. Yet he got nowhere near as long as Ange and he was a genuine Spurs legend!

As I noted elsewhere, the players must be demoralized when Ange tells them he wants to play his way again as they know that they have to score just to draw because we always concede. Whoever is in change of our defensive shape and defending mentality needs to be shot.

Is ange general melchett?

 
I really dont think some people realise just how brick this is given the players we have/had back then

Its absolutely unacceptable if he remains in the job

Gerry Francis had the mitigation of a 42 game season when we lost 19 matches in 93/94, over our past 42 PL games under Postecoglou we’ve been defeated in 23 of them which is more than we’ve suffered in any league campaign since the club was founded!

1993/94: Won 11 Drawn 12 Lost 19 Points 45

1996/97: Won 13 Drawn 7 Lost 18 Points 46

Last 42: Won 14 Drawn 5 Lost 23 Points 47

Weirdly me. And not in the truest sense of the word.

This is a dreadful season. Truly, wholeheartedly garbage.

My issue is that I just don't see how things are going to change while the status quo remains in the whole football setup at the club. Lange was paratici was ....back to comolli and arnesen. We do some stuff to strengthen the team, and then just don't do the last bit. You don't get to a champions league final and not back the best manager in a generation. You don't sell bale and buy 5 average players and eriksen and lamela and pretend it's better than it was.

Ange was provided with 3 bonefide centre backs this season when we started the year, no spare left back, no spare right (Spence was not deemed up to it at the time, which is a whole other story). He wasn't backed in the forward line until the last few days of the window and still had Gil and Solomon around the place, taking up cash and a squad number.

We just don't take risks. We are so risk adverse that we are almost the antithesis of our freaking motto. We don't dare and we absolutely don't do.

This permiates the whole club, from the top down.

I'm not a levy hater and I admire so much about where we are but the time has come to our a footballing structure between him and the team, set an objective of winning X or y and then sign the cheques. No bargain basement, no £40m player when Declan rice costs £100m. You're top level business men, go find the cash, find the investment and give one of the poor barstewards we have employed a fighting chance, not a team playing with it's laces tied together.

So in summary, sure Ange has effed a load of stuff up this season. But so did conte, and so did Nuno and so did mourinho and so did Poch and so did avb and so did Sherwood and so did 'arry and so did Juande Ramos. Who won a cup having played dreadful football, lost 14 games and finished on 46 points.

We can't just keep sacking people because we have a broken footballing philosophy. That like fixing the lounge window every six months when you glasses are cracked.
