    I am sorry you feel the way you do. Am I confident right now? No not especially, but by contrast you may be you are excessively optimistic? In any case, it does not matter what I think, or you. What will matter is how things unfold over the next season. But considering the effort you have put...

    I also agreed it was a failing and disappointing even if I was not posting regulalry here due to other commitments. So on that, at least, we share common ground.

    I was not posting on this board during that debate so the use of the word 'blind' betrays your own lack of vision (I was working on a big project but was a member here). But ultimately you are (perhaps purposefully) misreading my motivation, bestowing a negativity upon them more to substantiate...

    I agree with you on both counts, despite some misreading my position. My concern today is about the performance, I expected more energy.

    You do not need to understand anything. Yes I will support him, I believe he needs time but that he is not immune from questioning, not least becasue elements of what we saw today relate to what he did in the past. Hence it relates to how much confidence people might have in him. Your last point...

    Everyone knows about the 4 in 15 because people like you would not let anyone forget it. But broaden it to a more macro context and Harry's success was 4th 5th 4th. Needed the results to get those positions.

    You choose what you see I guess. As for making generalized statements you are hardly the model of specificity. Personally I think the talk of AVB and his 'system' is ridiculous - not even sure you or anyone knows what that means. It is used as an excuse to mask some highly questionable...

    Point well made, and that speaks to what I am saying about the 'system'. Rigidity would be a recipe for disaster considering the recognised need to allow things to develop. I have said elsewhere that the team we had available are, and remain, fully capable of performing well. That they did not...

    I completely accept that. The debate is polarized in unhelpful ways.

    I will support him, and believe he does need time. But am not going to ignore what he did last season, and some of the decisions he made today. Ones which the previous manager would have been destroyed for.

    Good point, was hoping that break would provide some good time to prepare. But depends how many players are away.

    Considering the way he has been maligned and written off as a joke I do not blame him.

    *Official Match Thread* Tottenham Hotspur vs Norwich

    My concern is the excuse that the problem is we do not have players to play the 'system' yet. If that is where we are going then it is more vacuous than I could have ever expected. AVB needs to show some pragmatism and flexibility if the true problem is personnel and preparation time. We need...

    Revisionism rules where Harry Redknapp is concerned. Tragically part of this revisionism entails bestowing tactical genuis upon AVB (completely unproved) as a convenient contrast with Harry's naive simplistic tactical approach (more nonsense). Amazing what some can see to convince themselves all...

    That comparison with Norwich under Harry is the worst kind of selectivism. Harry had proven himself, so it was comparatively worse because we were in such a strong position. But to play the comparison game we drew and hammered Toon last year (lost to them already) and beat WBA twice (drew). Such...

    All sorts of ways to discuss this. For me the nature of the performances is what is deeply worrying. Today was woeful, and reminded me of the soulless AVB chelsea which we all mocked. I do think we are going to have to get used to a completely different style of play (less entertaining for sure)...

    Wonder if Harry had been given such leverage had we started like this. This is looking like a transitional season, which is tragic considering we had the opportunity to push forward not slide back. But if we do screw this up Bale will be the next one sold at a profit, probably a few more.
