    All 3 more than 12 years ago ... While we have seen players leave bigger clubs than us, Spurs has done a pretty good job in last decade plus of managing who we want to keep.

    Contingency planning : When Ange is sacked, who should replace him?

    But that's the problem - To win, we have to have more fight and more run in us than the opposite team (statistically backed up) This is purely a tactic fudge up - Against Ipswich, Fulham, Leicester, Bournemouth, Everton, etc. we have a better team, the system simply needs to allow the better...

    Contingency planning : When Ange is sacked, who should replace him?

    Villa are 9th mate, with a -4 GD and below Fulham Emery is a good manager but it's a textbook example of the difference in scrutiny you get in a club like Villa (not a small club) vs. Spurs. The current media narrative is Villa is doing ok/good, outside of the CL run, it's a really brick season...

    Contingency planning : When Ange is sacked, who should replace him?

    It's much simpler - The system gives up high quality chances, which at this level is punished due to quality of opposition. I genuinely believe the system probably works fine in scenarios where the opposition quality doesn't allow them to be clinical enough to make it count week in, week out. -...

    Contingency planning : When Ange is sacked, who should replace him?

    100% .. otherwise it's just nostalgia talk (which is fine). If it's a real consideration, all parties need to commit, because honestly, if we go back, it should be a long term expectation. If not, pick the next manager, Iriola, Silva, whoever and move on ..

    Contingency planning : When Ange is sacked, who should replace him?

    Clearly wasn't .. Ange shouldn't/can't feel comfortable, he must know that None of know what is going on, but the narrative up until very recently was he was safe, club messaging hasn't changed but the media voice, the Iriola & Poch talk has definitely cranked up, it's a pattern we have all...

    Contingency planning : When Ange is sacked, who should replace him?

    Just party line mate .. US has a huge potential assembly line of youth players with a lot of popularity at school level. The biggest issue is it's "pay to play" at a lot of the academies and hence they miss a huge segment of the population.

    Ange in or out?

    short term bump .. I'm not interested in the "who's fault" but the 3 seasons of "almost" burnt a few players along the way, by the end of that Poch into Jose era, Dele, Toby, Eriksen, even Lloris, had all lost something, love of game, motivation, just time catching up, whatever ..

    Contingency planning : When Ange is sacked, who should replace him?

    As you know, you and I have different opinions on the person, but to give credit, this is his response on recent interview "I made mistakes, you know? But the good thing is, when you are clever, you learn from your mistakes. It’s like when a relationship finishes. I feel empty. I feel so...

    Contingency planning : When Ange is sacked, who should replace him?

    He's had at least 3 separate interviews recently where he spent a fair amount on responding/commenting on Spurs Lets be clear, there is a massive difference between - I'm 100% focused on the US job right now and until at least after WC, I've been a manager for Spurs, PSG & Chelsea and while...

    https://www.relevo.com/futbol/liga-primera/betis-vigila-mercado-medios-centro-20250317204708-nt.html Short answer, yes, story is Betis is planning for him to leave to Spurs

    Ange in or out?

    He will be successful in a league where every mistake isn't punished. I actually think it's that simple, his system works and is entertaining up to a certain ceiling. If our opposition was 25% -50% less clinical on punishing our mistakes, we would be ok. The PL is a step too far for the model.

    Contingency planning : When Ange is sacked, who should replace him?

    Exactly .. it isn't fudging subtle I disagree, again as not the biggest Poch fan - He showed last year, he could still cut it in the PL, at the right level, with a club in disarray and a squad with massive balance issues and no striker. - The depth of squad at his disposal will be different...

    Ange in or out?

    The blame for Jose and Conte is exactly the same (with my caveat that Jose probably got less money that could be expected for Covid reasons) Both of them knew exactly what they were signing up for, both of them knew exactly the limitations of the club and both of them obviously either made or...

    Brennan Johnson

    Depends, if the system is get a cross to back post and have the "winger" be a poacher, he does that very well. And I've seen practice drills with us where that is exactly the play. Again my issue is, him and Son work best when the pass is in front of them, with space for them to run into...

    Point remains, we had a group of top level players that we were trying to milk one last thing out of .. FWIW, looked up signings under Jose, fudge, Reguilon is last man standing?
