    The 'If You Still Need to Purge Yourself Of Ange' Thread

    Nope, that's just conjecture you're presenting as 'truth'. You can believe it would've happened but it is without any evidence.

    He was so stubborn that he didn't listen to anyone, right? So stubborn that we didn't grind that trophy out with opposite action? Words and actions indeed. The fact he did it in a competition we won is undeniable. And you tell me I 'need to divorce emotions from reality'? My view is a...

    *** Tottenham Hotspur Vs Forest *** OMT

    Yes indeed, well we did that in the summer. Only Tottenham Hotspur could put itself through so much hard suffering, come out the other side with a big shiny trophy, and decide there was no potential in a winning group possibly using said-trophy as a quantum leap forward. Not only that, but then...

    Of course, what it SHOULD also confirm is that the dressing room and manager were building a relationship, culture and understanding that resulted in a trophy, and that the TRUST built in those last few months could well have seen us tenfold further down a line of development this season...

    ...yes, will hopefully the words which came from MdV's own mouth in this piece put the wider implication of that thought to bed.

    I think that's disingenuous. He makes it very clear that Ange wanted to win. What he makes equally clear is that the players felt there was another modification necessary to make that happen. Ange listened. We won a trophy. I think it is very clear that he was not a fan of the decision to sack him.

    The 'If You Still Need to Purge Yourself Of Ange' Thread

    I think it's pretty clear which players are not onboard right now. Yes, season 3 would've been a riot, I agree. Having gone through all that hardship and pain to STILL win a major trophy, I mean, culturally that squad would've been at a revving point. Sadly though they'd made the decision a...

    *** Tottenham Hotspur Vs Forest *** OMT

    Really? You think he has too many man forwards sometimes? I am not seeing that. I do see isolation between the front three and the rest of the team sometimes, and when we sit a little deeper to play full counter-attacking football, it feels like we often have far too many behind the ball, albeit...

    What would YOUR priority signing be in the Jan transfer window?

    I've wondered whether Alex Scott might be the answer to getting a player who can play the 6 and has significant creative talents besides being resistant to the press and comfortable on the ball under pressure? Perhaps he answers that lingering question of modern day football perhaps not allowing...

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    What you're saying does bear out when I think about...trying to remember the last rocker (Porro maybe?)...I've seen Xavi try to 'shoot' his way into confidence and matches without much success it has to be said. I would hope it is, at best, a general ethos that better chances come from not...

    *** Tottenham Hotspur Vs Forest *** OMT

    (offered in the spirit of discussion and to genuinely try and discuss tactics) Formation is not the issue. Intent on how a formation is being deployed is the question. Formations are fluid during a game anyway, from attack to defence sees different deployments. For me, a major issue has been...

    I agree. Liverpool is a massively important match, ditto Palace.

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    So you think Frank has instructed the players not to take long range shots? It did strike me as one more thing to throw at Frank rather than having any particular kernals of truth, but I honestly don't know.

    I mean, it has to be rubbish?
