he got a few injuries and suddenly wasn't so great. Managed to concede 4 goals at home to a chelsea team that can't score goals.

I like his personality and career path. He got a bit of luck that Eddie Howe broke off talks with Celtic after not getting a guarantee over backroom staff. And I doubt he was Levy's first choice but you have to take the chance when it comes and he has been impressive.

I think they should go for the title now or they'll not get a better chance. No European football doesn't mean you are definitely going to be up there. But it's an advantage to be able to have a free week in between games to better embed your methods and recover from injuries.

They need to buy a proper striker, maybe Martial could fire them to the title...

I think they're desperate to try & land Vlahovic from Juve with their financial issues - big old fashioned no.9 vibes that allow the rest of them to buzz around.

Nice enough character. Crocodile Dundee with a tactics board. Sacked by next October.

'Team Ange' crawling out the woodwork again....

Oh, has Marlo turned it into another opportunity to say he doesn’t like our manager. What a shock.

theyve got more injuries than us to actual starting lineup players.

so yes given the squad over all quality, money spent, and injuries he is doing a great job.

No they don't.

Spurs bought about six new players to the tune of around £200m

Funny how Ange having Spurs around 3rd and 4th in his first season is a ‘great job’ ……. If only we had a manager who did that…

they also lost their captain and best player in the summer.

Put it this way…
Let me trap a rat….

Why are you asking me that like I’m suggesting he isn’t doing a good job. He is. But of course when ETH does something similar last season (and the for the whole season with a trophy at the end) you’re happy to dismiss that

Kinda gave the game away a little bit there mate.

Just hope he doesn't get the best out of Werner at our expense next Sunday

Good points made but can't help thinking that Spurs being Spurs they are always likely mess-up in a title race even more than their neighbors are doing.

Yes but IF he came to United he would be dealing with some serial tool downers in that dressing room & most of us on here would hazzard a guess that they would be throwing under the bus after about 18 months if not even sooner & unless SJR & his band of men manage to work-out(please Eric), how much players-power nonsence has been going-on in that dressing particuly from the LVG era to the present date then sadly this rinse & repeat %@#$&!s will continue!
