I'd be more worried about Kane leaving.

We've fucked up so badly I'm actually starting to see it as a possibility.
So? We've won fuck all with him as well, what will it matter? It doesn't matter how you spin it we've had oppertunitys before Jose was on board and fucked it up. Jose isn't going to be the catalyst for Kane leaving.

Our fan base is literally rewriting stuff to suit a crazy agenda and it's embarassing.

Has Levy ever done that? No. So we should not even think or expect it from him.
He has to now because the plan failed. I get the impression Levy thought Mourinho could get a tune out from this squad however many knew it needed refreshing years ago Levy obviously had greater tasks ie stadium.

Had misgivings when we appointed Mourinho and can't say that has really changed but I think what we are seeing at the moment is a culmination of a number of issues. Of course injuries to our two best attacking players has played a massive part but alongside that I genuinely believe Mourinho thinks a lot of these players are not up to the task and it has a lot to do with this turgid stuff we are playing.

Don't think that really gives him complete licence to send us out with such little endeavour to take the game to our opponents but part of me thinks us not getting a striker in January has led to Mourinho believing this season is pretty much done and it's all about getting to the end of the season and sorting things out the summer. Well lets see what happens then because if it doesn't go his way, things could get even more toxic.

Yeah I agree. It does seem a bit of of all 3. He has lost his 2/3 best players in Kane, Son and Lloris, he doesn’t believe the others are good enough and he has kind of accepted this season is done.

A great manager? Maybe ten years ago. More recently he spent £85m on three terrible defenders when United backed him and took them firmly to mid-table. Before that he had Chelsea in actual relegation trouble - as soon as he went the same squad got 93 points and won the league the next year. Other wonderful transfer decisions include flogging De Bruyne, Lukaku etc for absolute peanuts. He's a fish out of water and not what we need.
He got the hump at United exactly because he didn't want those defenders, yet his expertise got that massively inferior United team past us at the peak of our powers in an FA Cup semi. He won the league with that Chelsea squad as well.

It would actually be calamitous to give this manager serious money in the summer. Thankfully Levy won’t, because he’ll never change. We’re on a road to nowhere.

I have written this season off. I don't expect anything... Its easier that way for me. Mourinho has to coach this squad a bit more they ain't good enough for specific tactics. Unfortunately we all have to give him time and trust he'll get it right.

Picking Vorm was nonsensical. Talk about thinking yourself right into a needless mistake.

We should sack him and be done with it.

Let the fans decided who we hire next, they know it all anyway.

I was probably like the majority of Spurs fans that reluctantly knew Poch had run his course and, somewhat reluctantly , accepted that JM was probably the best appointment, hoping that he really had refreshed himself with new ideas , with a young assistant, and would bring a sense of real inspitartion to a team looking in desperate need of direction and motivation.
I fully accept that JM has been extremely unlucky with many things which he inherited and the injuries to key players . I also fully accept that the biggest responsibilty for this mess is with the board and player recruitment policy BUT I am fast losing faith that he is going to be the man to really really motivate and rejeuvanate the players this summer and next season. I also wonder if Harry Kane will be sold to fund the sort of spending spree probably required. It wouldn't surprise me now.
