Yeah sometimes hard to know whether a coach has a say, or whether the player was an investment by the club. Was he active behind the scenes before the signing was public? Did he have nothing to do with xfers?
Ange Postecoglou | New Spurs boss on 4 year contract
- Thread starter MayosNoun
- Start date
I mean to say only from the perspective that United has had an abysmal season, and spurs are not very far away from them on the table.
Obviously he has got certain players firing, dealt with no Kane, and made new players fit right into the system, but overall I called him terrible only from the perspective of how close they are to us, when we are having the most terrible season ever.
Kane is good, but he tends to swallow up play that could have spread around by making himself the focal point. I didn't think Spurs would struggle that badly without him. They've struggled at times because some if their players are streaky and their defense could still use some upgrades.
But we are not having the most terrible seadon ever.
I actually think he's a genuine person, the type that Liverpool fans think Klopp is. Klopp is a performer, playing up for the cameras, everything is performative with him.
Klopp comes across as genuine in interviews that are not immediately after a match. Seems like when he comes into the stadium, he switches personalities completely. Guess this act puts the fear in his players, but he ends up looking like an idiot on camera.
Sorry, I get my news from Redcafe.
Losing to Chelsea is the final straw:
He lives!Losing to Chelsea is the final straw:
How has he spent 170 mn on new defenders and a goalkeeper and still conceded more goals than Utd?
With Liverpool away and Man City still to play he could be on track to concede more that 60 goals

How shit are that lot? Made us look semi decent.
One things for sure, in a big league where he’s not got a team streets ahead of the rest, he’s always going to be sussed pretty quickly. It’s already happened at Spurs, teams have worked out how to play them.
Losing to Chelsea is the final straw:
Too early to be saying all that. Over reaction as usual. Hes had a decent first season
His honeymoon period has carried him. The matches against United and Liverpool could've gone very differently.
Needed to win tonight. Top 4 gone for them I think, and they'll roll over for City when they play them.
Disappointing season for them really.

So Glaston's found a spurs forum to post on after being band. I wonder if Amadaeus is posting on a Mauricio Pochettino forum right now.
The legend returns.Losing to Chelsea is the final straw:
Needs to work on team set pieces.
Mate.
I don't get it.
Looking likely they'll end up with the same points total Conte was on course to get when he was sacked (66/67 points) and finish in around the same position he would have (5th/6th), except this season they've had no European football and managed to get knocked out of both cups extremely early on so they've quite literally only had the league to worry about all season.
Lost three on the bounce now, won just two of their last seven (and they were against Luton and Forest), and have been beaten 3-0 by Fulham, 4-0 by Newcastle, and now 2-0 by Chelsea in that run.
Yes, they lost Kane, but if last season was woefully short of expectations, how is essentially matching that performance (with no European football) a good season? At best, he's done the bare minimum, and I can't see how they're going to contend with eight Thursday/Sundays at a minimum next season.

Been found out. He'll be sacked next season.
If we had any sort of form we'd be above them now
He seems like a good bloke, and his football can be good at times but, it's also terribly naive. The early wankfest on here about him was beyond nauseating.
I do absolve thee
He has been badly found out. Just for context
First 10 matches - 26 points
After that honeymoon period,
24 Matches - 34 points
High line for life, mate.

Since 30th December we've dropped 9 points with goals conceded after the 80th minute.
We'd be on Villa's heels if we could see out a game.
Indeed bloody shit show
Weren't Spurs first or second place for a short run somewhere beginning of the season? Master class bottlers
Spurs and Villa are nothing special at all and it highlights how bad ETH has been this season that we couldn't get near them.
Looked so beaten in his post-match interview.
Oh, absolutely. It'd be a shitshow even if we were those 9 points better off. It was more of a comparison to the weird love-in Big Ange is still getting from certain sections.
It’s not weird. Journalists shape the narrative, Ange is media friendly and gives them plenty of sound bites. The veneer of being a “straight shooter”’will wear off soon I feel
It’s fizzled out a bit and they’ll be disappointed not getting top 4 but after a disastrous last season and losing Kane in the summer it could have gone a whole lot worse if you ask me.
They should have some funds this summer I wouldn’t be surprised to see Spurs strengthen with 4-5 quality signings

They spent big last summer, if they miss CL footy money will Levy really sanction 4-5 quality signings? Even if they somehow got CL, I don’t think he would!
Hmmm where are all the pundits that were drooling over him now? they never get called out for the constant bollocks they spew throughout the season.
This season it was Ange and DeZerbi they went all in after 2 weeks of the season and come the end of the season they have achieved nowt.

How refreshing to hear accountability instead of excuses. They actually created some chances too, players couldn't finish their dinner
