Tottenham Hotspur V Aston Villa

Ange looks like he’s about to cry

I can imagine - the last 2 to 3 months have not been pleasant for Spurs and he is the manager..

 

[Baleforce]

Plus the keeper holding it for 20s+ twice

it's just smart play

wish we were that savvy, and wish we could have a lead to protect

2 really

looked like he'd been found out by Christmas 2023

This for me to. People forget about how dreadful we were for a massive chunk of last season. It’s been 16 months now.

Fellas out of his depth.

Liverpool with FSG is an easy example of even Arsenal down the road. Both work within the same confines as ourselves although the self limits they impose are higher than our own of course. Hell even Brighton with their buy and sell model (I have no issues working that way, I think we should be in fact).

Fundamentally none of them have wasted the years we did by sacking Pich and replacing with completely unsuited managers that has created a legacy of confused and convoluted squads that has taken years to try and sort out. We are semi on the way but the managerial side is a shambles and honestly I do think our struggle to get a manager of real quality is due to that spell of nonsense that was Mourinho, Nuno and then Conte.

If I'm a Slot I look at the Tottenham setup and say to myself. "They don't know what they're doing. I'll give this opportunity a miss thanks".

Most likely another laughable managerial search akin to the one in 2021 to look forward to this summer.

First time I’ve seen him look this deflated Tbf

It is. But it is still taking more time than you are allowed, which at the very least should be added on.

Now he knows how we feel every week

Bloke knows himself looking at that interview. He needs helped by being relieved of his duties.

We all love this club. We all hurt at what’s going on. But today we had TWELVE injured players. Eight of whom you’d start. We’ve been limping along like this since November playing pretty much every 3 to 4 days.

To expect a 180 degree performance after Pool is not realistic. We have to write off Thai season, and sadly, IMO, Ange. Start again next season with a fit squad and a superior coach.

moaning about added on time after another shambles of a performance isn't going to get us anywhere

when we do our job perfectly we can complain about the officials

Villa smashed us, 2-1 massively flattered us

Poor fella (not). And I bet he barely gets paid too.

Ange - "we had 11 first team players out today..."

Way to inspire the players currently playing....none of you are in the first 11

 

[glasgowspur]

No point looking at the negatives, there's plenty of them and we can all see them, so I'm going to say that the positives are gray, Bergvall, Spence and kulu. Also think danso looks promising.

 

[RigorMortis]

This can’t continue.
The man seems broken and knows he’s out of his depth.

The injury situation is horrendous but as we all know Ange was found out that Monday evening against Chelsea, it’s been horrendous since.

This isn’t a knee jerk reaction

that tiny fudging violin

no team has ever had injuries before

excuses excuses, never any self reflection or taking responsibility, no mention of his brick fudging tactics that leave us wide open 50 times a game

fudge this guy

 

[SteveAWOL]

Defoe, Dublin and Shearer all pointing out how our players, especially Son, are hiding because they’re so shorn of confidence.

Hopefully Pochettino dropped off some fresh Argentinian lemons to remove this negative energy when he was up pub with Ardiles!

we've got a great fudging squad there, if someone would only put them in a proper system

Agree on Danso. Kinsky of course made the error, but he made some outstanding stops. Spence continues to impress me.

I’d imagine Porro, Spence, Bentancur, Deki and Son might dispute that. Maybe Sarr and Bissouma too. It’s fudging tiresome listening to that brick when the structure of the team is a mess regardless of personnel.

And how many of those 12 were injured in training? From keepers to strikers. We are obviously doing something wrong.
