Curious to see how Igor deals with the inevitable questions about Spurs being a big club and other questions relating to Ange's bit on the Overlap

Why Spurs Fans Turned Against Thomas Frank A final assessment of Frank's time at Spurs.

This is a long and heavy one: profspur.substack.com/p/why-spurs-...

Takai starting against Frankfurt 🚨

Tudor is to do

Incidentally, I'd sack Vinai Venkatesham yesterday. Not only has he already made terrible decisions at Spurs and is a general purveyor of corporate pablum, but also he was chief executive for every single year at Arsenal during which Thomas Partey played for the club. Get him the fuck out of Spurs.

Vinai Venkatesham also has question to answer.

Instead of giving a new manager 12 days to work with the squad we're going to spend most of these 12 days on finding a manager because the club had absolutely no contingency plan.

Signs were there as early as the Super Cup final, where we ended up sitting back after scoring two, but the first red flag for me was the Villareal match.

Got lucky with an own goal and then conceded chance after chance while creating next to nothing.

OMFG

What's he got against Scarlett? /s

Don't trust the people who appointed him to find a replacement.

The Romero stuff reminds me of something that I have mentioned before, football now being covered exactly like celebrity gossip. The one line cartoon characterisation, the rage baiting story of the week, instant judgement. It could be the Kardashian or the Beckhams. All for clicks

Zero minutes. Hope it's because he's still recovering from his stomach flu.

For all of the Cuti bashers-

24/25- yellow 3; red 0
25/26 (to date)- yellow 8; second yellow 1; red 1

Coincidence? What is different at Tottenham between the 2 seasons?
Frank’s style of play brings out the worst characteristics in Cuti’s.

Takai benched for the game against Leverkusen

Cuti Romero can get 7 more red cards for all I care.

Lange is unable to find his own dick while Frank points in the wrong direction and Vinai cheers them on, and I’m supposed to care that the guy who has played his heart out for this directionless club got sent off? Nah, do whatever, my guy.

This is true. It is interesting to note that his injury crisis is being used as an excuse in the media in a way it simply wasn't last season. He is getting sympathy that he doesn't deserve. It's really striking to see as we slump down the table.

I’m not saying we should have kept Ange. I’m not saying every decision was the worst thing ever. But as a whole it’s been ass and they seem rudderless.

And if the master plan is to bring fucking Poch back I’m going to lose it. Fuck that fascist sympathizer.

I know what I said

"We need to have a conversation about Vic"

Hoping it's 4 ATB with Gray as RB because otherwise he's learned absolutely nothing from last week.

Dane starting for Hibernian tonight

I think we're so used to absolutely shit football that when we play OK football people are out here calling it brilliant.

So that's it?

Please let us not swoop in for Mateta now that Milan have rejected him
