    Match Threads Spurs vs Luton

    I am quite relaxed about the remainder of the season. At the start of the season I expected us to finish 7th or 8th, anything above that is a bonus in my eyes. We are a squad in transition under a new manager with a very challenging run in against the top 3 along with Spam, Chelsea & Barcodes...

    Manager Watch: Ange Postecoglou

    This is not a criticism directed at you, but what you have written is part of my frustration - the narrative that Conte was not a good fit. He's a proven winner at the top level, including the Prem, if it is not going to work with him then we should be asking; 1) why is it not going to work...

    Yes it is - if you are psoting that in some way to suggest it is a critism of Ange please explain how youy believe that is so.

    Manager Watch: Ange Postecoglou

    In my world it is possible to support the view that Conte had a strong CV and he should have been given the time he asked for as well as supporting Ange becuase he is now the incumbent. Not sure you will find too many posts of me being critical of Ange.

    Manager Watch: Ange Postecoglou

    For the record, I am not one of those who thinks we should be pushing Ange out the door. I am fed up of changing manager every 16 months. Ange has not had enought time yet to prove one way or the other if he has what it takes to make us truly competitive. None of us know if he has it or not, but...

    So Ange can talk the talk. Good to know for when they start awarding trophies for great press conferences.

    Match Threads Fulham vs Spurs

    Not sure what is selective or out of context - it is clear that Ange beleives there are things at the club that he cannot change becuase of certain people "committed" to the club.

    Match Threads Fulham vs Spurs

    Conte moaned! Did you listen to what Ange said pre match on Friday? "The reality sometimes you can’t make the changes that you want to anyway because there are people committed to the club that you can’t change" That is a direct quote, you can see it online, I am not making it up. Is that Ange...

    Match Threads Fulham vs Spurs

    Fulham (H) and Palace (A) prior to the Chelsea game were not great performances either. From minute 55 against Fulham to the end of the Palace game we had one shot on target (Son's goal at Palace).

    Manager Watch: Ange Postecoglou

    You clearly don't get it - so I will spell it our for you. We had a manager proven at the very top level who asked for time and patience to change the mentality and came out in front of the worlds media and told some homes truths about the club and the players. The fans turned on him. So we...

    Conte was right about a lot of things - and Ange confirmed it in the press conference yesterday "The reality sometimes you can’t make the changes that you want to anyway because there are people committed to the club that you can’t change"

    Ange has shown he can do it in inferior leagues.

    Match Threads Fulham vs Spurs

    The media narrative is that we play exciting football. I've not really bought into that - it has looked to me like we are what we are (and what we have been for many years) - a work in progress.

    Manager Watch: Ange Postecoglou

    We've had managers recently who are proven winners in England, but they didn't talk about playing an attacking brand of football, so fans turned on them.

    Silva knew where the spaces are in our system and his team exploited them well. Ange did not make any tactical changes at half time to stop those areas being exploited.

    Match Threads Fulham vs Spurs

    Yep - after the goal glut last week would not be surprised if today is the day our goal scoring run in the Prem ends. Silva is a coach who I think if were given a good squad could be a top 6 team. And Muniz is a decent player - works hard, plays intelligently with good technique. I will take any...

    The top teams tend to have strong defences also - it is something I think we will need to improve upon if we are to win the league. Last ten seasons the Prem winners have conceded; 33 26 32 33 23 27 33 36 32 27 We've conceded 39 already this season.
