Haha true but I do feel that this is the lowest point of the season. Obviously we may have the inevitable "biggest loss at home in Premiership history" to come on Sunday....,
Nah he’ll still be in the job but the fans will start really getting on his back. I still think late Jan/ Feb is when the hammer will get dropped if results keep going like this.
My son's already made the wise decision not to join me on this one. It may be a long, lonely drive back....
The question is whether Mason could do worse. I've changed my mind in that last 10 mins, I expect the answer is no for Levy. The players aren't on board anymore.
Backing ange is what Levy should be doing. He hired him, after all. Sacking him is admitting he’s failed yet again in his attempts to find us a manager. And after all the talk of this being a project…
I don’t think it’s that they’re not on board, I just think they’re knackered… just as they were this time last season. This system is too intense. You essentially need 22 players of equal quality for it to work and that’s just never gonna happen.
We don't know if : 1. that is the reason why 2. so, tis because the manager is asking stupid or gibberish My position however on players who deliberately play meh or sh*te to meh/spite a manager, and what the consequences for that should be, are long known.
Yeah but in Levy’s eyes he has backed him because he’s spent a fair bit of dough. Problem is a lot of that dough is on players unworthy of their fees.
I criticised the squad depth before the transfer window closed and it's clearly an issue, but he hasn't used the players available. Reguilon and Spence haven't played, for example. The balance of the squad prevented them being used in Europe, but burnout isn't a good alternative. Why did we start with no left-wingers tonight and finish with two? Who was supposed to replace Sarr and Bissouma in the middle when they were removed? Bergvall appeared to be playing there on his own at the end and we couldn't create any pressure.
I said the moment the transfer window shut it was a) a **** window and b) we’d be in for a tough season because of it. It felt so easy to see and I’m just a regular Joe, how the board and management couldn’t is mental… and worrying.
The things us fans see that the ‘experts’ don’t is worrying. Obviously they’re privy to the finances but to go into a season where European football was back and not strengthen the first team much (Solanke) is almost neglect. If money was tight then why did they buy Gray, Bergvall, Odobert and resign Werner on loan with big wages? The manager has faults but the issues with Spurs lie mainly with the owners.
And I appreciate others are in the “give him time” camp but Solanke is yet another ****ing waste of money. Fluffed another big chance, we’ve paid £65m for a guy that isn’t a good goal scorer, on top of £60m on another guy that isn’t a good finisher. How did we get it so wrong? Is it really that hard to find someone who can put it in the back of the net semi regularly? Think the footballing gods are making us suffer after having Kane for almost a decade.
<BBC> Les Ferdinand Former Tottenham striker on Amazon Prime Every time Bournemouth went forward, they looked like scoring. Tottenham didn't. There was no urgency, no physicality, didn't win any 50-50 tackles. We didn't know what Spurs would turn up and it wasn't this one the fans wanted. </BBC>
similarly spending £65m on Richarlison, £60m on Solanke, hiring Ange with no PL experience… the list goes on. - All things that many of us minion fans seem to call correctly every year in one way or another.
