He's so passive, does nothing in game. I can't work out how he's even a manager.
His Wolves team were so very poor last season. How on earth did we hire him off the back of that?
I can't work out what we're trying to do. Still the same as under Jose, completely clueless. Slow tempo, poor movement and little pressing.
Poch created the blueprint for this team and we've followed up by getting 2 completely different style of manager.

I’ve been trying to give Nuno the benefit of the doubt and some time to get a better squad and implement his ideas. But that was another incredibly poor performance with zero attacking threat. I’d rather Mason got until the end of the season and we finish mid table playing attacking football than watch this dire brand of Mourinho ball (but without the counter attacking threat).

People who want Levy to invest more in better players (or just sell up) need to stop giving the club money. A few attendances below 50% capacity and he’ll realise he needs to do something drastic. 60k of us turning up week in week out and spending £50 on beer and food and he’s sitting pretty with the concerts, boxing and NFL games.

At least Mourinho showed emotion during the game. Nuno just stood there arms folded for basically the entire 90 minutes..

He wont get sacked but if we lose against everton then levy may be tempted to pull the trigger before the international break.

Whatever happens from here let’s try and show some class. Feel so bad for him, Tottenham are broken, he doesn’t deserve abuse if he is unable to fix it.

Thank you Nuno for you’re servise. You came late and got a short contract because well the board wasn’t sure. You did your best and this was allways going to be difficult. The Kane saga and other things did not help but it’s time to call it good. Wish you well in the future.

I don't hate Nuno, of course he would jump at the chance to manage us, but he is way out of his depth, how Levy and Paratici allowed this to happen is just unbelievable

I really wanted to give him time. But no more. You can't drop your best LB and drop your most creative midfielder. You can't take off Moura, who honestly actually gives more than most on that pitch. You can't just stand there like the worst wax statue in Madame Tussauds.

It's time to go.
