    OMT Badgers vs Eagles

    Tel and Souza! Love it. Let’s fudging win a game of football lads.

    What was the trigger in our downward trend?

    Agreed, I’m sympathetic to the argument we might not any longer have a definitive top 6 squad, but it doesn’t explain the sheer drop off we have seen. I really think it’s some combination of culture, confidence, connectedness, belief. Something is just totally off, and it means that when...

    The Overlap - some interesting comments from Ange

    Really agree with your last paragraph. Chickens coming home to roost indeed. To go from the parade to where we are now, it is genuinely impressive how wrong it has gone.

    What was the trigger in our downward trend?

    Genuine question, but which games would you consider that Ange thought he could ‘throw away’ that would have created such a negative environment that persisted into this season? I will grant that the last 3 games in the league we were terrible. Palace at home just after going to Bodo, Villa...

    What was the trigger in our downward trend?

    Love this thread idea. For me, I think there was a key moment where it all started to decline. But then there has been moments we could have recovered and built positive momentum again, and we have made the wrong decisions consistently since instead. The start of the decline is not backing...

    The "If we go down" thread

    It’s true, I think we’re dealing with insane circumstances, refereeing decisions, injuries, other teams seeming to pick up form at the absolute worst time for us. And yet, I look at some of the goals we concede and it baffles me how we manage to do so. We just look totally disconnected as a...

    The Overlap - some interesting comments from Ange

    Yes. And I don’t quite understand why people don’t at least acknowledge this is a valid reason. I think argue the merits of it all you like (eg someone could argue: I think you can be flexible and pragmatic and still maintain a cultural foundation of being brave at all times) but I don’t think...

    West Ham doing what we couldn’t at Fulham…

    The Overlap - some interesting comments from Ange

    I think he did touch on this on the Overlap and in previous comments in pressers. It’s a combination of understanding that his job was to play a more proactive style of football (eg they did that under Antonio and didn’t want to do it anymore) as well his comments about if you stop asking...

    The Overlap - some interesting comments from Ange

    Other than the players being used to the methods and being more resilient to them as a result, right? Are you saying there is absolutely zero possibility of that being the case?

    The "If we go down" thread

    I actually agree with this. Maybe it’s more hope than expectation but if he sees it as ‘I always take a year to fully bed in my culture’ then maybe a year in the Champ to do that while breeding more positivity meaning he would win more games on the way…I can see that angle. Give him a ten year...

    The "If we go down" thread

    I love it man. I don’t tend to react too much to short term results. But I do get really down when I see a long term trend or bad decisions being made that cause long term decline. I’m trying to find the humour in a terrible situation, but all I’m saying with our players feeling comfortable...

    The "If we go down" thread

    Yeah I don’t really want us to get relegated but if it hastens a much needed reset including at boardroom level then in some ways I will be happy. This club is an archetype of what happens when you do just enough to tread water and not enough to push on. The chickens will have come home to roost...

    The "If we go down" thread

    We have better finances than all of them. More high quality youth that would see this as an opportunity. I think we’re more likely to be Saudi Sportswashing Machine under Hughton than any of them.

    The "If we go down" thread

    Yes of course. And my post is absolutely self preservation. I’m looking for the positives. Not because I want it to happen but because it will be one of my darkest Spurs supporting days and I will need something to hold onto.

    The "If we go down" thread

    Agreed. I too of course don’t want to get relegated. But if we are, I genuinely feel it will be ok. More Saudi Sportswashing Machine / Villa than Sheffield Wednesday. Because we do have strong finances. We aren’t built on a house of sand. And in some ways I think a reset would be good for us. Ideally we could do...

    The "If we go down" thread

    I explained my point of view mate, in what I thought was a fair and balanced and also an (attempted) quite humorous way. Of course I don’t actually want us to be relegated! But if we are, I laid out why I think it could be an opportunity. Either way we need a reset.

    The "If we go down" thread

    Made my peace with relegation actually being a fun opportunity. We have so many good young players, so Lange’s kids will finally get a chance to shine. Add a bit of Champ quality, keep the players that would be willing. I think it would be fine. And everything that is true today about the...

    The Overlap - some interesting comments from Ange

    Ignoring the ideas of radically changing the playing system and giving the players bodies something new to get used to again, my belief is also based on the law of averages and probability that we simply couldn’t suffer as bad an injury crisis like that again. Still not following why my...

    The Overlap - some interesting comments from Ange

    I don’t know for sure. But I think there’s a fair argument that given we have played a less intense style this season and still gotten crazy injuries, maybe it wasn’t all Ange to begin with? Or that maybe part of the issue is in radially shifting from one coaching style and playing system to...
