    Ange has won more than most of the managers in the EPL, having won the Europa League in 1.5 years at Spurs. He’s won **** loads elsewhere. Arteta in 6 years has won an FA Cup. Ange also did it with most of his first team out for months and months. Thomas Frank is now winning games with Ange’s players that have now returned from injury, so not sure how you’ve come to the conclusion he’s a fraud?

    Surprised with Perth and Miami choices, I was expecting Argentina for Italians and any Spanish speaking South American country.

    Bloody hell people get so obsessed with terms like fraud in football and it gets applied so hyperbolically. A serial winner wherever he goes is categorically not a fraud. It may end up being the case that the PL is just a higher level than he can be consistently successful at but that doesn't make him a 'fraud', and mentioning him in the same breath as Russell Martin is just bizarre.

    This. And everyone then goes on about how Frank is doing so much better than Ange until it's pointed out that after the same number of games Ange had Spurs first..

    Ange is an awful manager and a poor tactician. He might get away with it in lesser leagues, but he’s been well a truly found out in the prem.
    He finished one place above relegation. He got the the fumbled his way to the Europa league final with an extremely favourable draw. His team then got dominated by the worst Man U team in living memory to glue a win by an own goal with their only attack of the game.
