    Spurs has been an utter disaster move for him. Not convinced he gets a big gig straight after even if he were to win the Europa. Think he'll need to rebuild his rep a bit before a big club comes calling.

    Still reckon a decent sized club down there would take a punt on him given the managers spurs have had that also failed, especially if he guarantees them a trophy in his second season :giggle1:

    If he wins tonight, he walks into another decent managerial job, no question. Just probably not in England. Italy would suit his temperament I think. All their managers say mad * in press conferences, no one would blink an eye.

    Spurs are a * basket case with no structural foundation that encourages a well run football team on the pitch.

    Every single manager before him would face the same league position if they spent majority of the season without being able to play what would be considered their main defence and midfield for anymore than 3 games in a row.

    And I'm not having this talk that it is because of Ange's methods, he did not have that level of problem here, we had injuries sure but as does every club, but not to the level spurs have gone through. We never went most of a season without an entire defence and midfield hardly being able to play together.

    If spurs fans are really spouting nonsense about if losing means Ange is definitely gone for next season then they'll take it, they * deserve to watch that club go into liquidation. If Poch, Jose, Conte, Nuno(all of 5 minutes he was there) and Ange (TBD) don't win silverware at that club. It should be plainly * evident it is because of how the club is run from the top and how poorly the spend money. Just like Man Utd, on paper they can be seen to spend money, but if you are paying nigh £60 million for Solanke after their only good season in the EPL and over £40mill for Archie Gray you are doing something wrong. As whilst they've been actually fairly decent for them, especially in the case of Archie Gray, they would be spending such fees at the start of the season with the idea being he's barely used given him time to adjust given his age . Over £40mill for someone, even if full potential and hype to effectively be a bench warmer which would have the idea when he was signed is * wild.

    I hope Ange * wins tonight and then goes against his better nature and then burns bridges and lays out Levy for being a useless *

    Bayer Levurkuesen will be looking for a manager with Alonso leaving. Might be a decent option for him.

    The complete disrespect in some of the comments aimed at Ange from parts of the media has been nothing short of disgraceful to be honest.

    I think some in here look through Ange tinted specs when it comes to remembering what his time here but the man will never be a * clown. Hope he * romps it tonight and I hope the club put out a wee social media post wishing him well, show the man he’s still massively respected.

    * the English media.

    Agree with you about the disrespect shown to him by the English media
    @Celtic_Daft1888 it's such a riddy you've got these wee journos who have never achieved anything in football who write this bullshit using derogatory language yet face to face in a presser they wouldn't have the balls to say those words to the mans face. Fair play to him for calling the wee * out.

    As far as tinted specs though, for me I will always appreciate the job he did turning us round from a complete shambles to title winners (and in incredible style) in one season. We are still reaping the benefits of what he acieved now in terms of Daizen and Reo being main men in our side under Rodgers.

    I mentioned before but I'm fairly sure he will resign at the end of the season regardless of what happens tonight.

    I suspect that's why he wasn't sacked months ago. With there being zero threat of relegation, he's asked for the chance to try and get the Europa League, in exchange for resigning at the end of the season. If he wins that it's a win-win for everyone.

    I hope he can do it.

    Love the big guy. Hope they do the business tonight and he leaves with his head held high. * the English media and * the torn-faced spurs fans.

    I hope I am wrong, but I think Utd will win, and Ange will leave Spurs under a dark cloud.

    Dunno how you tune in but if you can access Bein Sports 1 they will have alternative commentary (usually Guy Mowbray)
