Our goal differential is +13, yet we're in 10th. For comparison, Pool is in 1st with a +18, Chavs at +16, and Scum at +14. We simply find a way to be bad no matter the odds!

Well what an interview

How many times did he say “Not good enough “

No shit!

And he had the brass neck to go over and have a go at our fans who were great throughout and deserved so much better!

His substitutions were laughable

Taking off Sarr and Biss when we were chasing the game thus exposing our second string defence and cutting off supply to our forwards!
Oh and a master stroke putting Gray in as a CB!

Unbelievable and befitting a pub side manager which is what he really is and I’m amazed he blagged his way into the job in the first place with his experience in the Japanese and Australian leagues and don’t forget Celtic who are in a league so poor that only two of the teams ever win it!

He’ll probably get the Chav game but once we get rinsed he’ll be gone by Monday thankfully

Can’t blame him for taking the job as he’s 60 and this is his one and only chance to get a decent pay off!

So get Ryan as caretaker and try and persuade someone like Potter to take over

Anyone who knows how to set up a team properly because he clearly hasn’t got a clue

Brentford and Newcastle play each other on Saturday and United are at home to Forest later that day.

You'd expect United to win, but even if Brentwood/Newcastle is a draw and we lose on Sunday it would mean we'd drop as low as 12th, potentially 9 points off the top 4 at almost the halfway point of the season.

Like it or not, regardless of the injury situation, Levy will get itchy feet, especially if he's set the Champions League as a minimum achievement this season.

I still think we've got the best chance of a trophy this season if we stick with Ange but The Dark Lord may well take that choice out of our hands.

They’ve beaten Arsenal and City at their place. Dismal performance, and I agree that without a long run of good results soon the manager will be in hot water. But Bournemouth are a good team, and very tough to beat at their stadium, especially with a threadbare squad.

The behaviour of those fans after the game was fucking deplorable. Ange did well not to chin a couple of them.

The dislike towards Ange is deplorable. It’s like we are so desperate to win we cannot cope with losing.

Three games ago Spurs pulled off one of the greatest results in Premier League history then drew the next two games with eight players missing injured. Yes we were awful tonight but 20 years of frustration has turned sections of our fan base hysterical. Ange isn’t the problem

So we have gone all in on youth and a rebuild. Combined with a complete transformation in the way we play and a shitload of injuries to key players is it any fucking wonder that we have massive ups and huge downs?

Any “fan” who wants Postecoglou sacked can do one as far as I am concerned. Right now we need to be rallying around this squad and getting behind the project. The last thing we need are a pack of simple foamers bringing their toxicity to the club and dragging the place down.

You were happy with his interview???

Keeps staring at the floor because he can’t look you in the eye?

Those fans have paid their money and travelled down in shite weather to watch that crap and they’re quite within their rights to have a go

If you’re happy with this mug then fair play!

He hasn’t got a clue

‘one of the greatest results in premier league history’

Are you kidding me?

It was a good result against a team in the middle of their worst spell for many seasons without arguably their best player!

Did I enjoy it?

Of course I did just like the win at OT against a shite Utd side

Similarly the Villa result where they were in a shite run

All good but don’t get carried away as we were disgraceful against Ipswich, Palace and that garbage last night

It’s who are mate!

Nice debating with you!

Don’t be under any misunderstanding that you and I are having some sort of debate.

I don’t debate with fuckwits. Nor will I be responding to any more of your childish toy throwing.

Insert last word below. You’ll be on ignore before I can read it.

‘Childish toy throwing’

Says the twat who’s debating skills consist of

‘Fuck off Cunt’

But you can’t see the obvious that we have a fraud of a manager who doesn’t have a Plan B and his Plan A was sussed last season during the 4-1 humiliation by the Chavs playing a high line with 9 men!!

Lmfao 🤣

As I said literally moments after we beat Man City, we'll have great moments due to how we play, but don't have the squad to be consistent in this league, especially when we're playing two games a week.

Could we be better? Yes. But each week, there are players on our bench that I bet none of us has ever heard of, and we're a bunch of fucking nerds who post to a Tottenham forum every day.

Frazier Forster is in goal, and Timo Werner is as close to a "Plan B" as we have in the front three. Ben Davies, an aging LB, is our CB (well he was, now he's hurt.)

The two biggest changes we're criticizing the manager for NOT making are rotating our back four by putting a 18-year old (Gray) who signed to play CM at the RB position and sticking a RB (Spence) who hasn't played meaningful minutes for like five different managers at three different clubs in place of Udogie.

Ange is a big boy who made 5X more money this year than I'll see my whole life, so I don't get bothered when fans have a go at him. Part of the job.

But overall, seriously, what do people expect?

Honestly, who the hell could we get to manage this club if we sacked Ange? I dont love his vibe but he is playing the style of football we supposedly desire. As for the kids, i am fine with a youth movement but then you have to actually play them regularly. Seems we are cought in between. And at the end of the day, all bad thing in life are Levy's fault. That will never change.

I do like his vibe, but the part in bold is my biggest criticism. See, for example, Liverpool. Klopp and now Slot aren't afraid to rely on the youngsters even in high pressure games. And theirs are mostly academy kids, not boys the club have paid transfer fees for.

Some excellent points well put!

I know I melted last night but it kills me seeing us play like this while the Goons, Chavs and Dippers are all doing so well!

I hear Gray will be CB on Sunday alongside Drag

Fingers crossed 🤞

I will say again that Bournemouth are a very good side. Thought their press was the best we've played against so far. Yet you could see them losing at Ipswich on the weekend.

There's just so much money in the league that there's no such thing as a banker anymore, especially away. Everybody from 4th place to like 17th are good enough to win, and maybe win easily, on any given day. Even Wolves, whose record is horrendous, have been unlucky every time I've seen them play.

Liverpool have been brilliant, and Chelsea and Arse (now that Odegard is back) very good, but they're going to hit some banana skins at some point.

Interesting comparison for those who think we need to sack Ange .. a year in to the "project" at Woolwich and they had their worst run in 34 years from October to December 2020 - 5 points from a possible 30.

Obviously their owners have a different mindset to the Dark Lord when it comes to money spent on signing players but it certainly shows what can happen if you keep the faith.

You do have to stick with it a bit. Each manager takes on certain players to fill the gaps they want. Then they get sacked and these players don't fit the bill for the next chap that comes in. Arsenal have bought really well though over the past few years. They have a really solid team. Our approach seems a bit more scattergun.
