Almost like it was a mistake to alienate all of our allies with idiotic trade wars, and then launch an actual hot war where we needed their help gcaptain.com/trump-calls-...
Have started watching golf instead of football on Saturday I blame Tottenham Hotspur.
COWARDLY Mikel Arteta AFRAID to call the Meat Wall by its name
The strait of hormuz "is this a solution" meme but it's overlaid with the soccer "Job A: win ball, stop goal, grr, (ball magically moves to other side of pitch, dw), Job B socres goals, get assist, woohooo" meme Look it's a soccer joke, you kinda had to be there
I sjuck at photosharp I'm sorry I'm sorry
Is this a solution?
Bluesky is the app for people who like sports, but sports doesn't like them back.
This was him the week before he took the Spurs job:
Comic panel with slightly modified dialogue. HE-MAN: FISTO, MY FRIEND, ARE YOU ALL RIGHT? HERE, LET ME HELP YOU TO YOUR FEET! FISTO: I FISTED HARD, HE-MAN, BUT I COULD NOT FIST THEM ALL!
We have the dumbest people running the government.
This is just astonishingly great reporting.
All of the crises the White House has claimed over the last 14 months were planned in advance. All of them.
And however much contempt you have for media outlets who reverently relayed Trump's claim to have no relation to Project 2025, it isn't enough.
We wouldn't be getting this article if you, Vinai, did what Levy would have done - fired Frank and Lange into the Thames in December.
We are where we are right here, today, because of your incompetence. Levy screwed up a lot at the end but this is your mess.
• Insufficient prioritisation of the women’s team.
Fair enough, arguably one of Levy’s biggest blunders. Doing quite well now!
• An internal culture requiring improvement in a number of areas.
That’s going great.
• A growing disconnect between the club and its supporter base.
Wonder why, Vinai.
• A men’s squad requiring strengthening in terms of quality, experience and leadership.
Lange has been in the job since November 2023, so he should be fired? When’s that happening Vinai? Even if Levy hired him, you can fire him today!
• Financial pressures arising from heavy transfer spending and limited player sales, increasing the relevance of financial fair play constraints to future planning.
Again, who’s been doing the heavy spending for 2.5 years, Vinai? Lange spent £400m on bad/young players and only has £120m in sales.
• A wage structure and player transaction approach that had impacted competitiveness in the transfer market.
I agree, but then you add…
• A lack of specialist expertise in certain areas and insufficient empowerment of experts in others.
This is what the consultants were brought in for – most reports say that this has come a long way and the actual structure isn’t an issue, it’s that it’s filled with morons at the top (Lange/Vinai)
• Insufficient focus across the organisation on on-pitch success.
Yes, it’s been going splendidly since Levy left. Also, what does this mean exactly? This is vague nonsense and also absurd considering we've had zero on-pitch success this season with you in charge.
I'm bored (procrastinating) so here goes an analysis of all Vinai's excuses for why things are shit and it's not his fault.
This should be enlightening...
Levy absolutely lost his fastball and probably needed to go but it’s rich seeing these clowns throw him under the bus because you know what Daniel Levy never did? Get us stuck in a relegation battle.
Just waiting for Ow My Balls! to finally start airing.
Projected Tottenham points total with Andy Robertson in the squad.
According to my data model, the addition of Andy Robertson results in a 400% increase in leadership, attitude, know-how, and gumption.
If these trends continue...
Should we get a midfielder that can pass? An attacker that can score goals?
No, we must get Andy Robertson to solve our problems.
If only we got Andy Robertson, everyone, surely we'd be on 50 points by now.
How could we not with Andy Robertson? It's obvious! He would simply lead us there.
Just extremely funny shit saying that Andy Robertson would have been some magic elixir that makes the squad play better.
This sort of magical thinking is why Spurs are in this situation in the first place.
Great thing about those little guys is you can just keep throwing them at the problem.
Tudor just needs to go on every podcast and interview imaginable like Frank.
At that point you could shoot someone in the middle of the pitch and still get the benefit of the doubt from the English media.
No, but unfortunately it's all we got.
Honestly, if we just sacked Frank in December this wouldn't have been a thing. This is of our own making.
Also, we don't have the squad for a 3-4-3, maybe a 3-5-2 or 3-4-1-2.
But really, it's a back 4 squad with two runners + Xavi and then pick your front 3.
"Club keeps sacking managers until one works" is a terrible strategy long term but seems like the best option right now.
Tudor has had a few weeks and a few games and nothing the team has done tactically makes me think he's a couple matches away from cracking the code or something.
