I reckon one more league defeat and he's gone. That win against Brentford bought him an extra game.
Yes we're fecking shit, I never said otherwise. My point is that our long-term ambition is to win the league and regularly challenge for major trophies. Whether we'll be able to make that happen anytime soon remains to be seen.More ambitious, haha! We’re only sliding one way and it’s not up the table.
A few weeks ago I predicted tonight to be his last game but now I am not sure - I get the impression Levy is happy to write off the season and let Ange blame injuries.
Fired Mourinho same week as a final, but kept this chancer because they reached the semi-finals when every sane person knew they had a much better chance of going through with a competent manager.
Will never get a job this big ever again and can take his annoying passive-aggressiveness back to the minor leagues
They were always giving him tonight. The question now is whether he gets the FA Cup game.
Life comes at you fast, was the best thing since sliced bread a year ago.
Spurs are spurs but Ange is a pretender as well. Bad for eachother, bad apart too.
By definition you have a much better chance when you have a manager capable of winning games, no matter the opposition. Postecoglou has been awful in that regard.They had a much better chance of going through against this Liverpool? With these injuries? Which manager please?
Someone needs to explain what English fans hate so much about non-Dyche managers. I've seen many a mediocre manager at Spurs in my lifetime... Never one who's gotten this level of ire as Ange. It can't just be the mates...
Not sure them signings are that bad. Solanke is definitely worth that for me. Johnson could have been less but he's not a bad playerAwful recruitment. They spent 65m pounds for Solanke and 50 for Brennan Johnson. This is the main problem, not Postecoglou.
Awful recruitment. They spent 65m pounds for Solanke and 50 for Brennan Johnson. This is the main problem, not Postecoglou.
Get ready to learn Chinese buddy!Get ready to learn australian, mate.
I don't know who's taking a punt on him after this stint. Running players to the ground, get his side rammed through to sometimes, maybe, score a few nice goals.
tbf, both are injured right now and between them have scored 14 goals in the PL this season. I think the big problem for Tottenham right now is they simply can't defend and thats mostly because most of their defenders and 1st choice keeper are all out injured and they can't even outscore opponents right now because they've also got several forwards out injured. They should deffinetly be doing better than they are, but there's no way with the injuries they have right now they're a match for the bigger teams.
It is also Levys fault for not putting enough money into the squad and backing the Managers properly. But i'm a broken record the amount of times i've said that about Levy.
Because they lost at Anfield?? Doubtful.That's it for him
3rd highest net spend in the last 5 years.
5th highest net spend in the last 10 years.
They spend money alright, they just spend it worse than Utd.
The way Amorim sets up will nullify Spurs at full strength or not. Was a bit different under Ten Hag. Will be United's easiest game in a while I reckon. If Ange is still thereVicario, van de Ven, Udogie, Odobert, Maddison, Werner, Johnson could all be back to face United on 16th of February, at least from what I've found googling about it. So would still be without players like Romero and Solanke but with almost everyone else back for that game.
The issue will always be that they did not spend when they really needed to. I have sympathy that they really did not spend during their period challenging under Poch in the way they should have, Levy saw CL qualification as the prize and would not go further. Spurs do what we do, they splash cash when things are going wrong and miss the opportunity to really improve whilst overpaying for rubbish like Ndombele.
By definition you have a much better chance when you have a manager capable of winning games, no matter the opposition. Postecoglou has been awful in that regard.
I am not saying Tottenham should have gone through. I am saying that when it is clear that he needs to go there is no need delaying it and give up the chance of a final because he stumbled to the semi-finals. Competent manager that could organise them, energise them a bit and who knows what could have happened? Postecoglou in charge and the exact thing everyone thought would happen, happened
The summer before they got to the CL final they bought nobody. The only season they didn't spend up on 100m and more since 16/17.
Levy spends the money, he just spends it badly.
They would have been better off with Ryan Mason winging it. That is the crux of the argument.If there was an obvious manager out there that would make this team (injuries and all) favorites against this Liverpool at Anfield, I'm sure Levy would have pulled the trigger. That you're grasping at "coulds" and "who knows" says it all.

Looking back he is insanely underqualified to manage in the PL in a way that few managers before have been, big name ex players excepted obviously.Not even a bad manager or person but a classic case of being out of your depth. Just not up to it.
Because they lost at Anfield?? Doubtful.
I don’t think even Levy expected anything tonight
Solanke wasn't a bad signing in my books. They have also brought in the likes of van der ven and kulu in recent years so not all badAwful recruitment. They spent 65m pounds for Solanke and 50 for Brennan Johnson. This is the main problem, not Postecoglou.
He still isn't spending anywhere near as much as they could given their revenuePrecisely, he does spend it badly. That summer before the CL they had been title contenders and it was the moment when a bold owner spends to push the team over the top. Levy closed his wallet, content with what he had and although they made the CL final it was a streaky cup run, their league form was already slipping that year and of course the following season they began horribly and Poch was fired. I am not a Spurs fan so I don't follow them closely enough to be more specific but this is what seems to upset the fanbase so much, money is always spent too late to change the trajectory of the club.

Spursy needed to draw tonight to progress to the final, even a side as bad as Man United this season managed to draw recently in Anfield.If there was an obvious manager out there that would make this team (injuries and all) favorites against this Liverpool at Anfield, I'm sure Levy would have pulled the trigger.

Bayindir, Yoro, Lindelof, Eriksen, Antony. Yoro has played more since, but he was very much a backup player at the time. He still is really.League cup tie didn't suggest it. Apart from Baydnir it was pretty much full strength Man. United that night?

67 points over his last 52 pl games with a "big" club, so people saying he is way out of his depth and should be sacked isn't ridiculous. This isn't enlgish fans hating any non-Dyche manager (which sometimes might be true), it's just seeing that after a short purple patch this guy has an incredibly bad record for Spurs and still a lot of people seem to defend him.We are comparing a league match and a derby where form usually goes out the window, to a do or die cup semifinal tie?
Again, I'm waiting for some insight on what about this coach rubs people the wrong way into some ridiculous takes
