    The 'If You Still Need to Purge Yourself Of Ange' Thread

    I think it’s very likely because that’s what he’s been hired to do. Maranakis will have hired him because of who he is, because he would have felt Nuno’s football had a ceiling and he wanted Ange to help raise theirs. It may not work, but I think that’s the method. You don’t hire Ange because...

    The 'If You Still Need to Purge Yourself Of Ange' Thread

    All totally fair, I can appreciate that he’s media persona isn’t going to be to everyone’s taste. It’s also something that he clearly isn’t going to change, so opinions will be shifted there anyway. I think he’s usually fine with journalists when he’s respected, and snippy when they aren’t...

    The 'If You Still Need to Purge Yourself Of Ange' Thread

    I am completely fine with someone having the opinion of Ange not being good enough for our club. I might disagree, but I’m fine with it. What really irks me though is comments like ‘the George Weah’s cousin of managers’. Yes it’s a joke, but the implication is that he is so bad that not only...

    The 'If You Still Need to Purge Yourself Of Ange' Thread

    Ange disrespect continues to amaze me. Yes, they’ve gone from the solidity of Nuno to shifting to an ultra attacking style. They lost to Arsenal with no training time, battered Swansea and Betis, could have easily won against Burnley, and didn’t deserve to lose to Sunderland or tonight...

    **** OMT Tottenham Hotspur FC v Bodo Glimt ****

    I take this point, but we were missing them last season on the same ground, and didn’t face anywhere near the same level of threat from Bodo then. We were missing Romero, but I think the difference in performances were stark. I think Bodo are clearly really good, and will continue to be under...

    OMT Mighty Spurs vs Hungry Wolves

    I was a little ‘happier’ with his efforts because it seemed like it was quite a pronounced change, enacted quickly. It didn’t work, but I appreciated he tried to adjust. That’s what I thought we were getting with him - this adaptability. But it seems like as you say the combinations piece is...

    OMT Mighty Spurs vs Hungry Wolves

    When you say Frank is learning, and mention these players, do you think it will be meaningfully different in terms of style when they return? Reading The Athletic today, I think they have a fair read of it. The football is go full back to winger, get a cross in, hope to profit from it. And also...

    OMT Mighty Spurs vs Hungry Wolves

    I think we’ve had an easy ride of the fixtures so far. Obviously City is a challenge but they were pre-Donnaruma signing. I think Arsenal being second is way more impressive because they’ve had harder fixtures and yet are above us.

    Dominic Solanke

    Just about the most obvious and inevitable news of the season so far.

    *** The official 2025/26 Premier League thread ***

    I think it’s that when so many teams tried to copy Pep and get small, nifty little players that can play in tight spaces, they’ve left a gap for teams that want to emphasise size can exploit.

    OMT Mighty Spurs vs Hungry Wolves

    Agree with this. I really liked the selection in the Burnley game. Gray, Bergval, Sarr. It was like we knew we were going to have the ball so emphasised energy, high pressing, youthful exuberance and progressive passing. The Bentancur / Pahlinha pivot didn’t work against Bournemouth and it...

    OMT Mighty Spurs vs Hungry Wolves

    I think the players are good, I’m not saying they are title challenging standard but they are top 6 standard, with the only question being Bergval as in the 10 role as that might not be his best position. I just saw a stat on the very low amount of open play XG we’ve created this season...

    OMT Mighty Spurs vs Hungry Wolves

    This was an Arsenal level of cringe. Take your shirt off if you’ve scored the winner and you aren’t on a yellow. Fine with that. But if there’s time left, grab the ball and get it restarted. Beyond annoying.

    OMT Mighty Spurs vs Hungry Wolves

    I think this is it. Our players in attack are good. They are more than capable of beating Wolves. We needed to take our chances in the first half today. We didn’t, and Wolves adjusted. To Frank’s credit, he tried to make adjustments quickly in response too. I will say though, that was a...

    ENIC

    It’s this or sports washing though right? I feel like an American owner with our stadium makes the most strategic sense too. Will keep an eye on this one with interest.
