I cannot believe he is getting the best out of the players at his disposal. I understand all of the caveats but we get bursts (usually at the end of games when we are desperate) when we actually try to play a bit which show it IS possible.

I think he will stay to the end of the season, fail to get the players he now will admit he needs ove the summer and then will go after that when the football remains this painful mess.

Hopefully not, hopefully he turns it around but the absolute lack of ambition from the way we are set up is pretty grim to watch.

Yep, another one forgetting about how Klopps reign started at Liverpool. 3 and a half years of rebuild it took for them to come good.

People are expecting miracles in two seconds. It just doesn’t happen.
Klopp imprinted his style and gegenpressing plan from match 1 against us. Jose’s bus parking is negative and outdated.

We opened this game up playing 30 odd minutes of football, had a 10 minute spell and then finished the half strongly, what in hells name are people watching?

We had numerous chances in the 90 ... I'm genuinely wondering if u watched the game.

What were you watching? We nicked a goal off a set piece, and then set up shop against the worst team in the league at home. Came alive when it was too late and still looked hopeless.

Im sorry - this isn’t going to change. This is how he plays. And it will take a long time, and a lot of money, before we ever start to resemble something he can work with.

It won’t happen.

Not as idiotic as the pain of watching Joseball every time we play right now

We're a complete laughing stock and I cannot understand how any fan can still defend his tactics and setup.
Nah that doesn't add anything to your point what so ever. Also that is such tired bollocks, we've played football the last two games and lost them ...

Utter rubbish.

The same idiots who hashtagged #TrustPoch and #InPochITrust for 5 years without a single trophy are now calling for Mourinho’s head when he’s joined an absolute mess mid season. You fucking hypocrites.

Pochettinno had massively improved our club, led us to our best spell since the 80s, and playing some incredibly good football. Mourinho was a hero to the scumbags from the Bridge, has not improve us an iota, and most importantly is not even trying to play good football. If he had an attractive system, was working on adapting the squad to it and encountering a lot of teething issues, I could accept that. If his pragmatic approach meant we were in control, not conceding and grinding out results, I could reluctantly accept that too. But he's deliberately playing a horrible system, and failing to get results with it. So what the fuck's the point? The best case is that he turns it around and gets results with the horrible system, but if we're hoping for that I'd much, much rather give Poch the chance to turn it around instead back to playing great football as someone who's truly Tottenham.

We pressured them all the way up to the goal, what were you watching?
