    Great start for Ange and the spurs fans seem to be loving it.

    * the fat * he's left us in some *, we were starting to play * and let's be honest the majority of.his final buys were * horrendous especially his Eastern players, 3 good ones, the rest pretty darn *.

    * em, go support Spurs or something it'll all fall apart and he'll be sacked.

    Been brilliant to watch. You just know it will go sour at some point though when they go on a bad run.

    I disagree! He's going to surprise alot in that league. With the right backing I wouldn't be surprised if he won it or give man city a good run for there money this or next season. His mindset is a winning one and with that, anything and everything is possible

    Ridiculous post about one of our ex managers.

    Honestly wish him the best, but I think the end game is like Bielsa at Leeds, great first season then the best managers, in the best league, work you out. Hope I’m totally wrong tbh.

    To some degree feel that started to happen end of last season here. And didn't need the "best managers".

    Maybe, but to be fair he now has better players and a bigger budget. He also won’t be coming up against two rows of 5 players to break down as often as he did with us in our league.

    Could well be right but one thing is very likely the games will be a lot of fun to watch.

    Bielsa was ultimately hamstrung by managing a promoted Championship level side. They also were in the middle of a horrendous injury crisis leading up to his sacking.

    Ange on the other hand is at one of the 7 or 8th richest clubs in Europe. I know they don't act like it with Levy, but do well this season and he'll still be able to attract a completely different level of player than Bielsa at Leeds could have done.

    Yeah, I don't think they worked Bielsa out. Like Ange, he's never hidden how his teams play. He just screwed himself over by having a small squad of first team players (his choice), which meant he had no answer to the injury crisis.
    Similarly, I don't think there's a big mystery down there about how Ange plays. There's decent analysis all over YouTube and you can bet that professional analysts employed by the big clubs know it in even more detail.

    It was a great 2 years. The guy was awesome. I took a lot from just watching how he manages things.
