The team on the pitch should have it in the to pass the fecking ball 5 yards :lol:.
Brighton have been pressing you to death for almost 70 mins now though. Its damn impressive and its not the first time its happened this season. They are a damn good team. Give them some credit as well.

Potter is a very interesting manager. Did very well with the resources he had at Östersund and did well at Swansea imo.

If the manager has lost the team then it’s his fault.

This is not a bad idea. We’ve got Brighton fans chanting ‘we want seven’ at us.

He can’t last through this.
Levy has to take the lion share of the blame, Poch should have been able to get rid and buy new players summer. It's not Poch fault that there's players that don't want to be there.

Oh I am, they have out played us in every department, but look at the players themselves no effort, no fight.

I haven’t heard any Spurs fans being hostile towards Poch, it’s simply his time to go. Don’t make up stories to try and make funny posts.

Östersund is such a small team in Allsvenskan, yet they did wonders in Europe. It blew the entire nation away.

What bids did Levy turn down for Toby or Eriksen? Rose rejected the contract from Watford?

A lot of criticism needs to go Levy’s way but for how shit we look recently? Like a team who are barely even being coached and have zero desire to do anything?

nah .. for me you have to blame the manager for that. He has to control those issues and he’s totally failed to do so, and so many of his decisions have been questionable.

Shocking management.

So well drilled this team. All those experts up in arms about Hughton's sacking surely see that this team has gotten better coaching.
Weren't they hovering around the relgationzone before this? Including a loss at home to Southampton and failing to score at Newcastle despite having all the ball?

So why didn't Levy buy any players last summer? Levy wanted big money for Eriksen so obvs no one would come in for him with just a year left on his contract.

So as @Jazz said you wonder if he would cope with the pressure a manager gets at OT. Yes he would get money but they want results eventually as well.

We were actively trying to sell Eriksen, he simply wanted to go on a fee transfer, can’t sell a player who won’t leave. Cause we built a new stadium.
