Levy moving goal posts is why it doesn’t really matter who are manager is, we are just on an endless cycle. I wish the guy good luck and admire fans optimism, but fundamental problems still remain.
The turnover since the final Poch season has been insane. We can't keep buying tons of new players, waiting for the odd gem. And saying we need to refresh the squad every damn year.
I suppose the one benefit of the insane turnover is Ange has a lot to work with as we've got 4 managers' worth of signings. Even if a bunch of them are shite there's quite the mixture of players.
Quite right. And they will remain until ENIC and Levy fuck right off.
Do you think Kane see loads of potential in this squad? I don’t think he does, he knows it’s poor. His goals have masked how poor much of our squad really are. It makes his goal tally even more remarkable.
Really, no holiday for the guy, fair play although I would’ve thought he could’ve done with a rest for a week before starting with us. He could’ve evaluated the squad and some transfer targets on some beach somewhere to begin with.
Yeah i’m happy if people are feeling positive but I think a reality check is needed.
I think he means Bridge’s leave has been cancelled.
Probably right as a leopard doesn’t change their spots the hope is that if this guy is another Poch/Redknapp etc then we could have good times around the corner still even under Levy’s ownership.
If this works out, will you give levy some credit? He’s got the last few appointments wrong, but I have a good feeling about this one. We’re all quick to jump in levy’s back, but let’s also remember to give him a par on the back shouod this turn out ti be the right choice. He certainly feels more like a spurs man.
Ohhhhhh that makes much more sense mate
thanks
For me this is what it comes down to. Ange appears willing to take risks and equally to take the blame when risks don't payoff. Our last few managers always played it safe. Even worse, Conte and Jose never took an ounce of blame. They'd blame the players or the club or Levy instead. It's no wonder that when the times got hard, the players downed tools. Ange appears to be an actual leader. Jose and Conte both lead through reputation alone. AP has no reputation to rely on, so everywhere he has been he's had to convince a skeptical group of players, fans, and the media that he is up to the task. We've totally lost our identity since Poch left. Big name "winning" managers and big $ signings have taken us further away from where we want to be. Our ascendancy under Jol, Redknapp, and the Poch all came from buying young, undervalued talent and developing it while playing attractive soccer. We moved away from that and paid the price.
Kane could play as the 10 in a 4-2-3-1 with Richarlison as the 9.
