Craig is totally right. It's not only Spurs, but also Liverpool fans. If you told Liverpool fans that we will finish 4th this season, we would have been delighted. But once we saw the title as a possibility, everything changed.

I’m so confused why are they talking about spurs like they are title contenders or a team that has won the league recently.They always have a good start in the season but as a Tottenham fan Conte made it clear that Tottenham will never win titles because that’s who they are

The table doesn't lie. I am a Liverpool fan and the reality of this season is we are third, the third best team in the Premier League and that's fair given the season we had.

London's Manager of the Year hahaha

Majority of Spurs fans didn’t get carried - the media did and few randoms online but majority of actual spurs fans feel we’ve done better than expected

Ange is the 1st Spurs manager to complete a full season in charge since Poch.

These guys have very short memories themselves. They are the ones that made us look at Spurs as title contenders. They hyped Spurs up so much and now it's blown in their faces. All coaches get found out at some point there is nothing wrong, the difference between good coaches and great ones is that the great ones find another way to make their football work

Spurs has spent the same amount as liverpool since 2016 so don't lie

First! The media got carried away too!

I'm a Spurs fan who was very concerned about "Ange ball" even when we were doing well. That felt like something unsustainable and as Kasey Keller put it, required 3 Ngolo Kontes performing their best to protect when Spurs were losing possession. Ange's Celtic had by far best players in Scottish league so the style worked well, but it's different story in EPL. I do not think even ManCity would be able to win it all plaing Ange's way. EPL simply has too much quality in both players and managers to hope that Ange's tactics would deliver results on the long run

5th is the perfect position for Tottenham. I don't know what they're thinking

Remember when Spurs fans went around saying "Angeball" all the time and thought they were in a title race? Joke club with deluded fans.

Graig is absolutely right...

The only issue for Spurs is Postecoglu saying they have no problem with defensive set pieces when they clearly do. Sometime between now and next season he'll have to fix it or Spurs won't improve no matter which players they bring in, maybe they need to upgrade defensive coaching staff but something has to change at the back.

most fans tend to be final score and goal watchers. have little understanding of football. they are distracted from the ongoing game until someone scores--the entire game is just the highlights for them. unable to appreciate the thoughts and efforts the manager has put into the game.

"and that's who we are mate" 😂😂😂😂😂

Spurs spent more money than Liverpool since klopp took over. Sky Sports done a piece on it. 570m to 346m

One area they should be concerend with is playing out from a goal kick. They just don't have it at the moment to be able to do so.

When Jose when the coach...those fans said they would rather lose playing the Tottenham way than win playing negative football. Okay. Here is a coach playing the Tottenham way to the minute details. Now they are saying he should be more practical....it is easy to imagine you would be okay losing playing positive football....it just aint so...

He was awarded the greatest manger in London award? 🤷🏻‍♀️

I was lucky ( and truth to behold honored ) to be coached by ( in my opinion) the late and great Ian Ross ( formerly of Liverpool etc ) and he made it 100% clear to us that we WOULD lose games. He said that the way we lost was the most important thing.

Nuno got same results as Ange and got sacked with months it's surprising to see that espn wants Tottenham to become another average team like current Chelsea, getting 5th and not top 4 is a new good level of tottenham

Agree wholeheartedly with Craig. Spurs fans need to chill out and have faith and patience

The problem with Spurs defending is that Romero and Poro do not want to defend both of them, are always high up the field, leaving Vander Ven to cover both 2, 4, and 5 positions . If Romero and Poro want to play up the midfield or striker, they have to tell the coach we don't want to play in the defense.

Give them the credit where its due.WON the TigerCUP in Singapore...WON the no Points In November shield...Won the Bottle of the LeagueCup(reserves day)...Won the Bottle of the top 4...Won the EPL in October...Three manager of the months awards..One Manager of the YEAR....SOLD the best striker in the league...and MATE, hes got 33 years left on his contract!

Graig is spot on! Finally a voice of reason.

Mo Salah destroyed Tottenham today 😂

Spot on Craig! Same at Arsenal!! We still have fans here clamouring: "no trophy, Arteta out!". Ridiculous

Spurs have been like this all season defensively. Remember Stevie say "you can't keep on outscoring the opponent" and now they can't score.

The more we have a playmaker centrally, the more goals our forward will score.. review the home win against Sheffield Utd where Smith Rowe played central and Eddie N scored a hat trick

Good ebening 😅

As a lifelong Spurs fan I agree 💯 with Craig 👏🏼

10 games in Spurs fans thought they would win the league Well next they got City so 5 losses in a row coming

It's weird that the only manaager that can have his teams press 90 minutes noatter the players is Pep... Those "magic shakes" are amazing!

Good. 🎉🎉🎉

Craig is saying "lads, you're spurs"

Wow ETH would've have been slaughtered. Unbelievable.😂😂😂

He should sit in the Kop end for part of the match regardless.

What if they lose 2 more games and they are on 8

Supporters and pundits are both fickle week to week

I don’t think they got carried away…the manager gave them something to believe in , they have played amazing football this season and they had a lot of injuries to deal with….i was happy for them competing like that and I’ve enjoyed all of their games this season

Theyve been blasting poch and chelsea all season and cfc are playing better than spurs. Why does postecoglu get a pass? Spurs have had midtable form since gameweek 11.

Tottenham started the season off flying, 10 games undefeated they were actually playing a proper brand of football under Ange Postecoglu which was something that we never saw under previous managers and many believed that they were title contenders in the Premier League. Even though their form dipped, they actually managed to stay within touching distance of the top 4 while navigating many injuries and their players in the middle of the season were representing their countries at major tournaments: AFCON and the Asian Cup. They were outside of the top 4, they had a chance of trying to overtake Aston Villa in the race for champions league football. In typical Tottenham Hotspur fashion, they’ve bottled it once again during the most crucial stage of the season. As a wise man once said “it’s the history of Tottenham” and obviously everyone knew that they weren’t going to end this long trophy drought, now they’re out of contention to secure champions league football because they’ve won 2 out of their last 8 league games and have now lost 4 consecutive league games. 4-0 loss to Newcastle, 3-2 loss to Arsenal even they came back from 3 goals down it wasn’t enough, lost 2-0 to the worst Chelsea team we’ve ever seen and also their “Stamford Bridge curse” continued and also lost 4-2 to Liverpool who their season has unraveled themselves and are no longer competing for the premier league title. Since they’re in 5th place, had English clubs been doing much better in Europe this season, that alone would’ve been good enough for a champions league spot, but will have to settle for the Europa League.

Where's all the rave about "Aange Ball" gone?

The fact is that many of my fellow Liverpool fans don't realise that we're in big trouble defensively. Van Dhjk can't defend anymore, which explains why he always plays highline with opposition's strikers. He can't face them to take the ball from them. The success rate of strikers getting past him is 90%, letting in goals cheaply. We can't win any trophy with Van Dhjk, still our no 1 centre half. Quansah is trying but can't handle skilful strikers. Konate is on downward hill his performances of late have been mind troubling. We need at least 2 young top cetral defenders in Europe if we want to challenge for the title and win any trophy next season.

Kasey need to stop with that one button on his jacket lol. Just be like Craig and leave your jacket undone :)

As a Spurs fan I can accept we are a top 5 team. Vicario has been good this season but I would like them to go after Ramsdale. He's strong, hungry to #1 goalie, and knows every Arsenal trick on set pieces. Then he can work on other parts of the game and fill in weak areas but you need a keeper who can shove players out of the way.

Nuñez is finally ready for La Liga. All the best to him for his future endeavors, thank you.

They do not play great football Craig, they’ve conceded almost 60 goals so far in the league. That’s shambolic for where they want to be.

😅walloped not heard that word in forver.

Spurs had the 2nd highest net spend in the summer after only Chelsea….get your facts straight Kacey

This is not about fans getting carried away. It's about his tactics and oppenets exploiting the weakness of his tactics and his refusal to change it or improve it.

Huh Craig doesn’t understand what Spurs objective is? The biggest stadium with the most expensive tickets, with an actual billionaire owner, every single things they have shows they’re suppose to be on top there. They actually have decent players as well. In short, it’s the top 4 Wenger’s vibe with Alexis Sanchez leading thinking they can do the impossible

Craig, Ange is being found out

How flip flop are these espn pundits are when its eth they are calling him clown when team had 60+ injuries but postecoglu they are just trying to hide him

Not just Spurs fans Nearly all Tv pundits were acting like spurs were gonna win the league

Is his hair on purpose?😂🤣🤣 Harvey Elliott looks as though he styles his hair using a hot frying pan!! Who do you think has the worst hair in football?

Frank saying Liverpool started to go down when Salah got injured is a LIE! The team played better while he was injured. Even Nunez had his best run in the team during that time. The youngsters in the rotation carried the team without Salah and TAA. Jota was great! Go check the tapes Frank! The team went down after Salah returned.

I expected to hear the same thing from these guys for Arteta and Ten Hag back then. Regardless they have a point

North London Forever COYG! 🎵 🎶 🎵

Was a fantastic match. Still don't get why Klopp is leaving, Liverpool gave their all in this match and were denied a clear pen (again) on the foul of Gakpo. MacAlister the Argentine has proven to be a world class signing once he no longer had to play the 6 and Elliott played so well too. Spurs lost (again) but dominated the ball yet again, however, not enough chances and shots created. Liverpool played so well in both ends that no matter what Tott did Reds were going to win that match. Maybe Jurgen will change his mind like Xavi? Nope. Whatever club or country gets him to sign on for them (if any) next, is going to be very lucky. One of the very best managers the EPL has ever seen.

Big Ange Impostornoclue strike again

And when it comes to ten hag these same guys🤣🤣🤣 And it's not about how much money is spend which determine the success of a manager It's who got the better players United paid a lot more money than spurs but the Tottenham squad is way better allround

2 Teams who had the "End Of Season" Jitters and Liverpool come out on top....which they need toifvthey are to compete in the ECL next season...

Spurs bottlers FC. Agne's 2nd season could be worse in that he's been found out. Achilles heel: set pieces, keeping a high line.

If Spurs finish 5th good manager’s first year, but, performances are declining, the weaknesses have been found out and the manager is saying he is not willing to learn or adapt just needs better players. It would hard to have the 18 perfect players needed to make it work without changes. The squad isn’t bad a few additions and a good manager should get results.

"All we care about is that we're playing bEaUtiFuL fOoTbaLL.. We're tHe bEsT tEaM iN tHe wOrLd and we're wiNniNg tHe leAgUe" "Maddison is tHe bEsT pLaYeR iN tHe wOrLd"

Right now, there's something remarkably underwhelming about Ange's tactics. It's like math versus poetry. No one ever fell in love with a quadratic equation, and no matter how brilliant or clever you say the equation is, it doesn't express what is in your heart. You might not agree, but many do. Yes, it's peculiar.

No one is getting a free ride like Ange us getting

It's fine, though. Ange said getting 4th isn't important anyway.

Being "Reds" fan, if you told me at the start f the season we would be in the top 5 I would have been more than happy. Remember Liverpool had no mid field at all. Luckily we signed players who over achieved in fitting in straight away.

I’m not a Spurs fan but if I was I wouldn’t want to qualify for Champions League. The team is developing/in transition and they need time to improve

Spurs fans got carried away because Ange himself replied to media in January as to why they are not in conversation for the title when asked about top4 chances.

craig is absolutely right about these fans making these unrealistic expectations of a manager who is new to the league but reason why a certain group of fans are mad isn't because he's been found out. It's because there are issues with his gameplan and tactics that leave the team vulnerable in attack and defense that has been evident for about 10 games that he doesn't want to adjust let alone address. the starting 11 hasn't been working and some players are either out form, inconsistent or not good enough but he keeps playing them. there are people on the bench could be put on and make an actual difference. I mean like did Dragusin turn down bayern only to get 2 appearance this whole time. maddison hasn't been himself but you prefer to kulu out of position instead of lo celso. I mean come on. why not have Micky at LB and have Porro move into midfield. The whole game plan from the start of the season had been fucked. we understand that it can happen since it's your first season. but what we can't understand is why you can't try or switch to a plan B when plan A has been utterly and totally fucked 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

Do people realize he is also still building his team? Like he has players to still get rid off to

These ESPN guys are so unbelievable. These same guys made Arteta looked clueless just a couple of months into the season picking Spurs over Arsenal. I'm starting to hate this show.

these pundits haven't got a clue. Why are they saying Ange didn't spend as much as the clubs beating them? Only Chelsea spent more than Ange this season. Below is a list of highest spending clubs in 2023/24 Club Spent Received Net Spend Chelsea 424.8 220.1 204.7 Spurs 238.4 110 128.4 Arsenal 208.5 78.8 124.7 United 167.4 42.9 124.5 Liverpool 145.4 52 93.4 Newcastle 130.8 42.2 88.6 ManCity 211.1 135.6 75.5 Y'all stop this media pampering of Ange. He has been well funded and supported by the board, bought 9 players with £238.4m, has the 2nd highest net spend behind obvious Chelsea only, and still managed to stink the gaff up. He has been a massive failure this season. The truth won't hurt you

No matter how poorly the season has ended for them, Tottenham have massively overachieved under Ange Postecoglu. Why, it’s because last season they were a mess as they finished in 8th place in the premier league meaning that they weren’t going to play in any European competition this season, the managerial situation was a circus for them as they had 3 different managers in a month and literally sacked their assistant coach. Not many people had high expectations for Tottenham especially after losing their talisman and greatest ever player in Harry Kane last summer. They started the season off very well and obviously you didn’t think that they would really challenge for the title, they were playing well to potentially secure champions league football or even Europa League at best, because Manchester City Arsenal and Liverpool (before their season ending collapse), 3 teams were competing for the premier league title and Aston Villa were flying. They stayed within touching distance of the top 4 for the most part of the season despite being plagued with injuries and key players on international duty. What Tottenham usually do best is crumble at the worst possible time. As they say, “Typical Tottenham” and a wise man once said, “it’s the history of Tottenham”. No matter how well they were playing, everyone knew that they weren’t going to win a trophy as that’s been the same story for them every season, a run of 2 wins in their last 8 games and 4 consecutive defeats means that they’ll officially be out of contention for the champions league places by the time they have to play against Manchester City where surprisingly they have to help Arsenal win the title winning some points off of them. Their record in that stadium isn’t great, Tottenham’s form doesn’t make people believe that they can take points off of Man City. I think that Tottenham fans shouldn’t overreact by saying that they need to sack Ange Postecoglu. That wouldn’t be a wise move from them they shouldn’t consider sacking their manager absolutely not because yes they wanted a top 4 spot, but considering the injuries and players playing for their country in the middle of the season combined with them literally losing their best player last summer, their season has some positives that we should be able to take and they can obviously strengthen their squad when the transfer window starts as they’ll be much more expectations on them next season.

Where was this support for EtH last year…

4-2 is not a reflection of how superior Liverpool were. Problem was that the defence went to sleep because it was so easy and gave up 2 pretty awful goals, not for the first time this season.

This is starting to sound like a protect Ang at all costs campaign. London manager of the year is crazy but that aside, if Ang ball is to completely neglect any meaningful defensive strategy and wish on a prayer that you out score your opponent week in week out, then may Tottenham play Ang ball for the rest of my Arsenal supporting days. Attacking the fans reasonable reservations instead of analysing the managers evidential strengths and weaknesses is just disrespectful to the fans

If Liv had played the way they played against spurs the few games before, we would still be top n heading for the title charge.

Craig is 💯

4 losses in a row and 13 goals is a terrible haha

Spurs has the 2nd highest spend 150 million .

Spurs played better at the start of the season when they were moving the ball fwd far quicker.

Ange spent 30 million at celtic when the majority of the league spends 500k...cant do that in the prem and he spent a lot of money, spurs have outspent liverpool the last few seasons, 25 million for Dragusin yet doesnt play him...

Salah seemed to play well only because he had to contend with Royal who is a good right full back, but terrible in all other positions. Even Skipp playing out of position would have stopped him.

Craig is 100% right Spurs fans need to be realistic & back their team & manager The team has no depth over a season especially with European football next season

It's amazing how these bunch sing from the same hymn book making excuses for everyone and slaughterimg ETH for the same circumstance they're making excuses for. Laughable!!!

I mean at least unlike Liverpool and Arsenal, Spurs went ahead to go on an open top bus parade for winning the league in October.. That's something to be happy about I guess 👍

During the Klopp era, Spurs have had a higher transfer net spend than Liverpool. Just to counter what Kasey said.

Craig is full of it. Take in the context of the situation 4 loses in a row no shame in losing to Liverpool and Arsenal but Chelsea and Newcastle have been struggling all season especially at scoring and you make them look like prime Barca? You can criticize the manager for that

Nonsense. Tottenham had a new manager bounce early in the season. But Ange is out of his depth in the EPL. It’s as simple as that

Gee another 4-2 spurs really learning tactics this season

Is the Aston Villa's squad that much better than Tottenham's? I don't think so. They just have a better manager

Chelsea, Newcastle... teams with fans who need their team -- someone else --- to do their winning for them.... lot of it about these days....

See a table where arsenal and liverpool have spent less then spurs over last few years so thats wrong

Transfer window? Please tell me who this pathetic side of quitters who are missing fourth and might even miss fifth are going to get in the transfer window to improve their positioning next season. Only Spurs Reddit have that kind of infantile faith in Ange 😂

Master Clown Ale Moreno is missing who gave winners trophy to Ange in December
