The Ange at Tottenham Thread

??? Why do you say that? Do you honestly believe that Spurs fans have some sort of mystical grasp of the game that Australian fans dont have?

do you honestly think South Melbourne have discovered some new winning tactic in football the rest of the world aren't onto? :sneaky:
 
There is also a more cynical view on loans in that if Postecoglou does not make it beyond the season-defining upcoming period with the two Carabao Cup semi-final legs against Liverpool and the final couple of Europa League games of this stage then loan players do not need to be kept on if there is a managerial change and they no longer fit.

There is understanding within the club of the tough situation Postecoglou is in and the impact on the tired players he is having to put out every three days and how it limits his high-octane football. He is also benefiting from the fact that the Spurs players are still playing for him when his more recent predecessors ultimately lost the support of sections of the dressing room.

However, this period ahead is a crucial one for the constantly fire-fighting Australian to show that Tottenham's season is ultimately better off with him at the helm than without. The results over 2024 as a whole have not been good enough, despite the fifth-place finish in the previous campaign amid the post-Harry Kane rebuild.

probably muddled lower half table side and battling to stay out of relegation zone if this keeps up

I'd say Ange will likely be sacked before the threat of relegation starts to look real.....

It can't carry on like this.

I feel sorry for him at this point and think the best thing for him would to be sacked ASAP as it cant be good for him and his family. Clearly they're in a downward spiral and the online rhetoric from the 'fans' is only getting more hateful with every result. Levy is hanging him out to dry at this point and it isn't pretty to watch. Quite embarrassing for football fans in Australia too getting their nation's pride dragged through the mud.

Okay who hacked Lupi's account?

Seriously though you can't help feeling sorry for Ange. He's a decent guy and despite his shortcomings as a football coach he doesn't deserve the abuse he's getting at the minute.

It's no fun for anybody who loves football to see somebody working in the game be the butt of everyone's jokes either.

I've never been a hater of the man, I've always been a realist on this topic.
 
I think Ange won't last the season. Not sure Spurs issues are all his fault, but the EPL is too cut throat and the fans will turn on him so quickly.

The moment their fans cheered and did the Poznan when they lost to City last season so it meant Arsenal would lose the title was the moment I knew Ange & Tottenham are like Oil & Water.

Small mindedness permeates through that club.

A proud club would be using Arsenals success as fuel to their fire to overcome them one day, not wasting their energy to sabotage their rivals.

Tottenham are an unserious club. Ange is a fish out of water there.

A club that invests £1billion on building a new stadium and a £150m on their training ground is not really one that can be described as 'unserious'....

If it is an 'unserious' football club and Ange is too serious for them where should he be managing?

Bayern?

Real Madrid?

Barcelona maybe??
 
Given how well Ange started at Spurs last season winning manager of the month in each of thr first 3 months of the season, if you exclude that honeymoon period and just assess his time at the club beyond that point, they wouldn't be ranking too highly at all.

They invested that much in infrastructure that they use for a multitude of events such as NFL, Formula 1, Live Music and so on. Don’t pretend it’s football infrastructure only. They’re a corporation, a property developer if you will with football attached to it.

Bodes well for FFP given the revenue it generates. They have the money to curate one of the best squads in Europe yet over the summer they buy a bunch of 18 year olds and extend a washed Timo Werner’s loan.

So yes, they are an unserious football club who’s very serious about making lots of money but not really spending it (wages being the key issue).

He could be at AEK Athens for all I care, he wants to win.

There’s no way you can have the summer window they just had and tell me they’re serious about instilling a winning culture.

Bottom 3 out of established clubs in the league. Absolute dogshit.

That being said he doesn’t have the squad to scale his philosophy to the premier league.

Look what happened to Kompany and they sing from the same hymn sheet.

If Ange wants to salvage his tenure he needs to grab Levy by the balls and demand ready made talent to fill obvious gaps.

I hear they’ve signed a promising keeper from Slavia Prague whose good with his distribution which is a key to Ange’s build-up and Kolo Muani might be on his way too (although his form at PSG has not lived up to expectation)
