OT: Association Football

[Suitman]

What's more important for Ange is that he is still talking the talk and sounding completely convincing.
Even after this mornings match he was putting shite on the English about how they are allowing VAR to ruin the traditional aspects of the game and said it's taking an Aussie to tell them that.
He's such a great communicator in his press conferences.
I'm also glad the bar codes beat Spurs last week.
Better still, we have a 2-0 lead away from home in the 1st leg vs Arsenal in the League Cup.
Go barcodes.

the media seem to line up to get quotes from him as he tells it like it is and doesn't toe the line like most English managers, yet he is not abrasive in his responses

I'd really like to see him as long term manager

Forest is a great story.

Have you noticed in that movie how anyone who doesn't follow the systems life turns out?
While Forest who is simple follows the great American dream and all this good stuff happens.
Brainwashing at its best

How about the girl who was too busy hanging out with scumbags to give him the time of day, finally caught AIDS and gave him a pity f**k then returned seven years later with a five year old kid to look after. What a beautiful story.

Another loss to Ange/Spurs against a lowly Everton fighting for survival.

Leaves them in 15th place.

Its becoming harder to see how he survives

not if you have the full story

10 fit senior players to pick from so they all took the field in various positions, it keeps getting worse, 2 x 18 year olds and a 17 year old in this morning's team, Ange will be strapping on the boots soon enough

not really sure what Ange can do

Injuries aint helping but since when has that stopped managers getting sacked because of a full blown injury crisis.

I dont want to be Ange to be sacked but we know what English football is like its a ruthless business.

His saving grace atm is the Spurs are still alive in the Europa League and up 1-0 in the League Cup Semis after the 1st leg potentially 2 results from a trophy.

If they were knocked out the of League cup already i deadset reckon it would be nearly impossible for him to last the season out right now.

Ange has got to go......

Give him 11 years ffs

Europa game tonight. This is what Ange is up against.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

It's just Hoffenheim. Coincidentally, they are coming 15th in the Bundesliga.

sounds like we'll be evenly matched, we cant afford to lose this one

The amount of players unavailable is almost a starting lineup on any other day.
Spurs are doing it tough, and so is Ange.

PSG came back from 2-0 down to smash Man City 4-2.

luckily we got up so we're still in Europa

there is so much support for Ange, not just the fans but even the pundits, everyone putting the blame fairly and squarely on our CEO Levy, he is so heavily invested in the club that it is his cash cow. He's the highest paid EPL CEO (6 mill a year, he structured his own wage and bonus package and the board supports it as they are well paid as well too), we have the highest match entry fees in the PL and the lowest revenue to wages ratio in the PL. We are not a poor club. We make a lot of money from our stadium with about 6 NFL games a year and entertainment events.

Spurs are a business for Levy, not a sports club. Success for him is not winning a cup, it is UCL qualification as that adds about 20-30 million to the bottom line. We'll never win anything with Levy in charge as he wont invest in the squad and getting him out is like getting Putin out of Russia.

So frustrating being a Spurs fan.

Culture plays a big part.

Spurs have had no success for a long time so not many people in that organisation know what it takes to win.

Weighed down by history as well.

I completely forgot Levy sacked Mourinho 5 days before a League Cup final a few years ago. Like what professional organisation does that like seriously.

You havent won a trophy in years and decide to sack the manager a week out from the final.

bullshit,

they know what to do, they (Levy) just wont invest

6 managers in 6 years and some of the best, Levy blames the managers but he's the only one, although Jose is ridiculously over rated for mine

Conte hit the nail on the head when he left and took a huge swipe at Levy about not wanting to win anything, and he's currently on top in Serie A

you follow Parra right? Are they not considered a "professional organisation"?
