    So players bought for a different style and have been found out to be not good are included in a new managers rebuild. They cannot be included in an ange squad. He had zero input in them.

    It's our second/third rebuild in what five years. And we still have some of the players from Jose on our books. Two things stump me about the in/out debate. We have been in chaos since Poch last full season, we've never really came out of it. Sack ange, and I really would not have a problem...

    Of course it's part of football, it's the same at just about any club in the world. Yes paratichi has been involved for four years, but did know for years ago when he was signing players for contes formation and tactics that two years later we would throw that out the window and do a keep pivot...

    No, a squad was assembled over four years, a considerable part of that squad was inherited by ange. They are Ange's squad only because he is the manager, not because he chose them. Some of that squad was bought for the previous three managers who played a completely different style of football...

    Who knows. Saudi Sportswashing Machine struggled badly the year they had CL, they didn't have it this year.

    Eachy peachy between us and the toon imo. Our cup is better than theirs, but their league position and form is better than ours. We just shade it, just.

    I'm not arguing that, I have never argued that, I totally agree.

    You named four starters there, add in son Porro all here before ange, difficult to argue that's his team. A team bought for his requirements Danso came four months ago (and helped us to a EL trophy BTW), it's a bit disingenuous to include him.

    Me, no. But the fact remains they were bought for conte. They trained in conte systems. They have had to transition to ange system and integrate new players and a new belief system. It's been a hugely disrupted two seasons with injuries. That accounts for some, and I do mean some, of our form. I...

    You're not really trying to say that players bought to play conte system are the same as those required for Ange and the "tottenham DNA" that levy spoke about less than two years.

    What feat? We are two years into the rebuild, not four or five. So we have progressed but no one else had? I agree, our could be top five, at the beginning of the season did anyone really think that with one game to go forest would be challenging for top five? The unpredictability is what...

    I don't remember ever saying we were.

    It's the base we started from though, we spent to build a new squad because ours was a mixed bag/not good enough. They teams around us are ahead in their rebuilding.

    I love how what we spend is quoted but seldom what the teams we are competing with quoted. Arsenal spent more half our budget on one player, after almost winning the league. Aston villa are in deep do do if they don't make CL next season because of their wages. Chelsea, well fudge me where do...

    Would be progress next season along with a cup I said. Would you not accept 10th and winning the CL, it's a cup competition after all.

    I keep seeing this about the CL. Yes it the top teams I Europe in it. It also has a lot of dross. 36 teams, only a handful at the very best can be expected to win it. City and Real Madrid are usually favourites, so when they win it does it demeanor their achievement?

    Ange departs

    That IMHO is a good level to be aiming at for next season if the football improves. I've seen some levels of expectations that I think are only setting us up to fail. Top four and CL qf. That's before a ball is kicked or we know our transfer business. We can achieve those, but they should not...

    OMT: European Champions v Brighton - Sunday 25 May

    The bit I've been waiting for, the next time. He won't settle for this ange will want more.

    DL not getting enough love, do we have a DL thread?, the narrative of sacking managers at the first hint of trouble should be buried now. Stuck with the manager and it worked out. I bet even a bowl of Pochs lemons can't wipe the smile of his face just now.

    Welcome Ange: To Dare is to Didgeridoo

    Some of the players have described him as a father figure. Maybe that works out and it inspires them. Or maybe they, like me and a lot of people, discover that your dad is a bit of an arse and talks crap. But you still love him, you just accept that and move on. You forge other relationships...
