    Hope he’s keeping well. Just watching the Spurs game the now and looks like he’s lost a fair bit of weight

    Glasgow cuisine was not kind to him.

    I actually don’t want spurs winning the cup, their fans dont deserve it and let’s be honest it probably won’t be enough to save his job anyway.

    Been a spectacular failure for them tbh. Can't believe how * they are.

    Once they lose in Europe he's a goner.

    Shame they can't get relegated. Would have been some laugh since he won't be there next season anyway.

    Can’t see him getting another EPL job next season, they’ve been so so bad under him

    You need to be good and adaptable at the elite level. Ange isn't the latter.

    I'm sure his millions in compensation will make him feel better

    He will be gone ar the end of season. No point getting rid of now.

    He may even know his time if up already. Love Big Ange so its a shame but the most horrible hun * I know is also a Spurs fan so not hoping they win the Europa League.

    He is good and motivated. He wanted to reach the EPL, so perhaps too much so I fear, that he went to Spurs thinking he could be the one, if hostory tells us anything, noone at Spurs is the one.

    If he had waited another year, what chances he could've been in Slot's shoes at Liverpool? Not saying he would, but we'll never know. He wanted the move to the EPL asap and Spurs, well... here he/they are now.

    Unless Spurs win & progress on Thursday, I do fear that could be the end.

    He spent the last 3 months of our season working to get that Spurs job he was never turning it down

    I get he was never turning it down. As I said, perhaps too much, he wanted the EPL and went too soon to Spurs, and has paid the price for it, sadly. Unless he can conjure something special up for Thurs/ in the EL.

    Went too soon.
    The step across the world was a massive one.
    From the Asian federations to UEFA is a massive jump.

    Celtic was a great step in to European football for him, but to go straight in to the EPL after just two seasons here, and to a club expecting UCL football(not deserving of it mind you) and a guy in Levy that would give Peter Lawwell a run for his money, was always gonna end up this way I fear.

    He'd do well not to touch another English job for the time being.
    A Leeds type club - ala Bielsa - may work for him, but that's a gamble.

    Best bet, go to the continent. Find a mid to high(euro competing) club in the bundesliga or la liga. Spend a few years doing the job there, then make the step up again

    Spurs was the wrong club for him. He wantedthe challenge and a top 6 club to show what he could do. Ultimately I don’t think they had the players to play his style of football.

    They are a shambles. So easy to score against. He will be gone regardless of what happens in Europa League I think.

    to be honest if I was a spurs fan I would want him gone before Thursday. He hasn't addressed the issues defensively for months. I know they have had terrible luck with injuries but he just comes across now as someone who hasn't got a clue how to fix it.
