    Ange doesn't really go back. Very much a move forward kinda guy.

    Think he could easily nail another English club...but what clubs are really passionate and get on board with anges philosophy.

    I just think far too many players are just not 110 committed. Half arsed too many of them

    Madness coz his first summer hardly spent a penny in comparison to even the newly promoted teams.
    Thread bare squad and just not on board

    That could potentially be an unrecoverable defeat.

    An international break to think about it as well. Sore one.

    Don’t think the likes of Solanke, Gray or Johnson are bad players by any means but at those prices? Wow.

    I think Van de Ven and Maddison are generally fair at their prices

    Although, simultaneously, I could be talking absolute * and not understand how ridiculous the market has become

    Those prices, man. I always knew it was a mistake for him to take Lee Congerton with him on Brendan's recommendation. :54:

    Van De Ven, Vicario & Kulusevski are the only ones that don’t look overpriced.

    Ange wasn't used to signing players with that sort of budget before us plus I'm not sure he has as much control over signings at Spurs than when he was at us.

    In saying that his hit rate even at us started to dip after his 1st season.

    He looked a broken man after that game today, genuinely not sure how much longer he has there tbh. They’re so weak mentally

    Conceding 3 goals after being 2 up because his style of football neglects in-game pragmatism. Love the guy but he's destined for the bin soon.

    I've never seen him like that before. I really felt for him.

    He'll do a moyes, finish in a * awful position but win a trophy.

    Kinda like Man Utd I feel like they have similar issues where no matter who comes through the door as manager, something about the club and it's players mentally just isn't there and it always seems at odds with the manager which is never a good recipe for success.

    The Liverpool fans really like him and he'd fit them a lot better, not sure he's done enough to get that move and they will likely back Slot.

    As for Spurs, they're exactly what people label them as - serial losers. The English Hibs. He's made a noose for himself by saying he'll get a trophy this season. Can't see it tbh.

    He’d do well in Germany. Especially with an attacking club like BVB or Leipzig, if the opportunity ever arose

    They’ve actually spent and bought incredibly well tbf. Vicario looks a bit erratic this year but was incredible last year. Van de ven; unreal. Only one I’d say looks a bit suspect is dragusin but then again he looked brilliant at the euros. Bergvall and Archie gray are going to be class players but are obviously very young still. Solanke is guaranteed goals but you’re paying premier league prices to get him. Brennan Johnson and Maddison both look like great signings.

    only one I really can’t understand is Werner

    Solanke is anything but guaranteed goals. Prior to last season his highest epl season was a grand total of 6.

    That list is damming. Far too many projects for ridiculous fees and maybe 2/3 that you'd have thought could come in and immediately improve the starting 11.

    Not that I'm a manager, but I wouldn't have gone to Spurs
