I cant imagine how good we are going to be next season either to be fair.

I just hope that the manager is not around to see it.

 

[UbeAstard]

Well lets hope he (JM) is still here than as I am dissapointed thus far irrespective of injuries. The 2nd half against Burnley gives me a lot to hope he can be concincing next season. Looking back at what he has won isnt enough reason.

If he can get Ndombele upto Lo Celso’s level. The prospect of having them both in midfield with son and Kane is actually very encouraging.

Mourinho is going down the wrong path again his post match interview on Spurs first half display against Burnley was put solely on Ndombele... What is he doing?

 

[Jenko]

I fully back Jose in everything he is doing. He's forgotten more about managing in the premier league than most of us will ever know.

I believe he's going for defensive stability before all else this season in a planned preparation for next year where he'll take more risks. Not his fault the injuries or the individual errors.

He's also bedding in a lot of new talent and giving them all lots of game time. They'll all be better next year for it. He knows what he's doing, just hope the fans have some patience.

Actually a very positive interview, although I know it is a club one so bound to be. But all senisible comments. I am just writing off this season, not getting stressed anymore and just waiting for August. And also we all know it is lucky for Spurs when the year ends in 1. So season is the one!

I reckon he's fighting a losing battle on that front.

I loved Eriksen, he was my favourite player but this guy has more heart and guile than Eriksen. Although he has to add goals and assists which I believe he will, he is going to be undroppable for us, possibly is already.

I understand what you are saying. But in life you are dealt the cards you are given and you have to learn to use what you have got in the most effective manner you can. No matter if it is not how you want to play. He has a set number of players and you have to play to and combine their individual strengths to get the best results you can. You do not play trying to put square pegs in round holes. He just doesn’t seem to have that skill set.

Now we have Mourinho, I want him to succeed. I do see where you're coming from however a lot depends on Levy releasing funds.
I personally feel there's no need or point publicly calling out a player..that never sits well because it is a team game.

If Mourinho is going to do what he did in the post match interview against Burnley, why did he not call out Lloris for not holding the shot or pushing it out from the six yard box... It gets messy imo the blame game.

I think it’s a dangerous game publicly chastising one player whilst lavishing praise on others, surely it creates division in the dressing room and underlying resentment between players

I think that’s harsh, he’s in a situation of none of his own making, this is Levy and Poch‘s fault. Going into a season, in which, we’re meant to be competing in four (4) competitions with two recognised strikers is ridiculous and It’s become Mourinho‘s problem.

If he lets it happen again next season, then he should take some blame for it.

Harsh you say!

It's a fact of life.

He is paid to get the best out of what he has got. That means looking at what you have got and getting the best out of them. It is evident to me that he isn't. Not that Poch was any different and that led to his demise.

Ok I love mou

Especially when you were sacked from Man U and Chelsea because it all went to shit by doing exactly that.
Ndombele does need kicking up the arse. I watched Burnley game again today and he was strolling about like little boy lost. Lo Celso did more in 5mins than Ndomele did in 45 but slagging players publicly is not a good idea imo. Why is what I dont understand. Does JM really think he'll buck his ideas up more than he would if bollocked privately? Doubt it.
Btw he's right, Lo celso is gonna be fkin huge. Probably too huge and fk off elsewhere along with Kane, Son and Dele if we dont sort this shot show out in the summer. These top players wont hang about. Thats too horrible to contemplate. Forget I said that. Dum de la la laa.

I'm getting fked off having to wait 10 years for a superstitious chance at winning something. I dont think JM will be putting much faith in that lol.
