I spoke to my brother this morning. Heâs a season ticket holder and was there yesterday. He was saying that on one level thereâs no great appetite for another managerial change and the fans are hoping that it might just come right for Ange. As against that, the match going fanbase have more or less reached a consensus during last season that he was quickly found out as a one trick pony who was out of his depth and that it wonât come right. They havenât turned on him yet, but could be as close as failing to beat Brentford at home next Saturday from doing so.
As a non-Spurs supporter I think Spurs are going to have a right bad season.
Canât see them finishing ahead of any of:
Abu Dhabi
Arsenal
Liverpool
Chelsea
Saudi Arabia
Manchester United
That would be a seventh placed finish at best. But Villa look better again and you could have a couple of surprise packets emerging from mid table - Bournemouth, West Ham, Brighton, Fulham etc.
I wouldnât trust Spurs to finish ahead of any of them and I wouldnât be surprised if they finished bottom half. A likely managerial change is the unknown factor.
Iraola of Bournemouth will likely be the hot target of any âbig clubâ that pulls the trigger.
Its a strong era, you could be quite good and finish 8th or 9th, Prem are basically buying everything with a pulse from Europe and South America.
This was my call on it back at the end of last season. We were winless and bottom that season after 8 games with just 2 points on the board. Then Arry arrived and it all changed with the greatest ever new manager bounce.
Thought you couldnt watch games at 2.00 on a Sunday?
Thought Johnson was a great signing but has not done it. Totally off the boil for Wales too.
I thought heâd be good as well but he is better in counterattacking teams with space to run into rather than facing up the fullback.
Which poster kept telling me last season big agne was embarrassing ten hag because he had such a distinct style so quickly ?
That couldâve been me.
But there might have been a few of us at it.
Maddison strikes me as even lighter version of Jack Grealish. A largely nothing player with a seemingly very high opinion of himself.
2 oâclock on a Sunday is not a great time for non-footix to sit down and watch a soccer match. Iâd usually be out and about most Sundays at that time. I donât organise my weekends around watching English Premier League soccer. If I happen to be at home to catch an odd match or maybe watch some of it back later, all well and good.
Johnson has been awful for Wales too. Total loss of form.
@Cheasty is spot on about solanke⌠how they paid nearly 60million for him is a mystery⌠Liverpool couldnât believe their luck when they got around 10 million as part of the sell on clause.
Spurs have spunked away their Harry Kane money same as when they squandered the Gareth bale money⌠long season ahead for the yids
They needed Toney.
Solanke is a small-club player.
Credit to Big Ange seems to be in short supply after an impressive result yesterday
Beating Brentford at home?
We won at home against the team that finished 16th last season and have since lost their talismanic striker. We limp on.
Potter and Southgate are still on the market. Time to bin off Skippy the Bush Kangaroo and get in a proper English manager who knows the league.
Keep us posted on proceedings from Old Trafford fellow Yids. I wonât get to see it. Tbh, hard to get too enthused anyway about a mid table clash of mediocrity.
