Agree he needs to go, but if still here on Thursday, has to go if we don't win that

I bet he's still here - it's how we roll now.

Won't get Ten Hag or Potter mid season, but there are options. Valverde is available.
Go home to your family Nuno, you were a broken man last season with Wolves and your clearly not up to this challenge.

Does one game make any real difference though? Even if he won it, the problem isn't really individual results.

If he survives the international break he's done damn well!
But yea, that sounded completely toxic coming through the TV and also notably towards Kane too.

It reflects really badly on Paratici
That is true... but sometimes you gotta grovel
Gallardo in December is a possibility but im not sure what is happening with Barcelona.

In the interests of full disclosure, I missed the first half today and the second half against Burnley. I'm living in Asia at the moment, so waking up in the early hours of the morning to watch the utter dog mess that we serve up nowadays is increasingly unappealing. I've watched every other minute of the season though.
I never wanted Nuno as our manager, but I actually felt genuinely sorry for him today. He's very clearly not up to the job and I'm not going to make excuses for him. But surely the anger shouldn't be directed at him. It should be aimed squarely at Levy.
Levy is the guy who decided to give a substandard manager a substandard squad of players. The substandard performances and results are, therefore, surely his fault. Nuno is a patsy; I don't want us to lose sight of the real villain.
Romero, Skipp and Son aside, it's hard to see a glimmer of hope at the moment. To be honest, these days I don't know much of the football world outside Tottenham, but it's hard to think of a manager who would be able to turn things around in this squad without significant, intelligent investment. And that investment won't ever come, so I don't see a resolution to the current mess.
As much as I'd prefer a better manager than Nuno, my concern is that we could get a combination of Brian Clough and Alex Ferguson and they'd still end up standing on the sidelines like a gormless frog watching the horror unfold.
Nuno is definitely not the man for the job, but I don't know who is.

I think it’s pretty much confirmed they’re going to hire Xavi.

Fair comments, but if he's still here Thursday morning and we win our next two games, he might survive the break
For me if we top our group, make the Lge Cup semi and go into January top 8, then okay
But it's dreamland isn't it
I expect him gone by December

Kane has a lot to answer for but you surely can’t put the blame on him for Nono being a complete and utter fraud surely ?? ?

This isn’t about today , this is the frustration from Poch’s last season / Jose’s first till now , the football has been dire , worst I can remember , we need a front foot manager , to not register shots in target is inexcusable, what are we Norwich , we have Kane and son and they both look finished at the moment , we don’t look organised , look at Uniteds goals today , where was the defence , it was all so easy for them . As for the subs , Jesus did one of them make a single contribution?
