*** Tottenham vs Arsenal NLD OMT ***

Ranieri at Leicester

They spent before they sacked their manager and brought him in that summer no?

Ranieri at Leicester

they spent an absolute fortune putting that team together the season before

They also spent a ton on peds and bribing officials to let Huth play rugby rules

Potter! He has a world class squad and successfully fudged it up.

 

[glasgowspur]

Sky with saha and rednap as the "spurs" side are just rubbing it in.

he’s spent more money in his 3 months at Chelsea than most pl teams have in the last 3 decades

 

[DubSpur]

Potter! He has a world class squad and successfully fudged it up.

He doesn't. He has an unbalanced squad and owners that are buying players for the sake of it. Buying Aubameyang says it all.

How did we go from thrashing them, taking their CL spot an looking like a much better team with a much better manager to being 14 points behind, have the double done against us and looking far far inferior to them

 

[Rorschach]

We’re stuck with him until season’s end, though. The board won’t go all out and spend big to free a replacement from their contract; and, in true Spurs style, he won’t be dropped.

You are spot on with this. Next season though he needs to drop down to number 2 or move on.

 

[glasgowspur]

First 10 mins sess spaffed two crosses perisic would have put on a plate.

 

[SpurMeUp]

They are clearly better than us but at the end of the day swap goalkeepers and you have a very different result there .

And address our first-half weakness, and we are a decent side. The stats on how many goals we leak in the first half must be damning.

It’s not Sess’s fault, it’s Royals.

didnt they just escape relegation the season before? they were 5000-1 to take the title.

Sky panel taking Conte’s tactics apart here…

 

[fernadez]

What Arsenal prove is that eventually we have to stick with someone and back them over a period of time.

Sack Conte, bring in Poch doesn't matter, will still need 3/4 years and money.

Arteta was routinely finishing 8th.

Exactly right. You have to let a manager develop a balanced side.

 

[Gutter Boy]

So I think it’s natural that this season will fizzle out, we’ll finish 5th or 6th and Conte will leave mutually.

Draw up the shortlist of managers now. Poch, yes, Postecoglu double yes.

Need to act now. No point buying players for a dinosaur formation/system that no one else will ever play

I agree, but I don’t think Conte will stick around. He’s realised how the club functions and is seeing out his contract.

If you see incremental improvement - yes. Like Poch 2014-2019. But we're regressing massively and have been all season.

4th and 6th in a rebuild is good going no? Not defending him for the tactics but just looking at it from a perspective.

Chelsea won the Champions League and look at them.

I thought they came up the season before after massively breaking championship ffp?
