When I was about 6 my mums friend owned a shop 

 

I asked her why she didn’t make everything 20p and sell everything and have the busiest shop in Sheffield 

 

this is ange’s approach to running a premier league football team

It's all a bit mental.

 

He has an idea of how the game should be played and is not willing to budge on that one bit.

 

They've got quite a few injuries ATM and are missing their two first choice CBs...so perhaps that's when you adjust things?!

 

Archie Gray (who I don't think is even 20) is a central midfielder who played at right back a bit last season. Personally, I think it's absolutely mental playing him as a CB with this set up.

 

Honestly, it's almost getting to the point with Ange where you'd think he's taking the pi55 and almost goading them into sacking him.

He is way too stubborn as a manager. Doesn’t respond well to criticism about his playing style either. Your last point, I actually wouldn’t put it past him to do that if he was getting told to change his style

It's ok at a club striving to win nothing and just exist, so yeah let's be entertaining 

 

Similar to Peterborough in my opinion , who set up to be goal busters to attract buyers to their strikers , sell them on for sweet profit and reinvest a bit of it on another young striker from the lower leagues, I admire it its a brilliant way of paying the bills and making money. 

 

Spurs might be thinking of being the Prem version?

Spurs don't know what they are. 

 

You have fans who are desperate to win a trophy, but then others who want to play football in a very attacking manner. 

 

They have two proven winners in Jose and Conte in charge and many fans couldn't stand it due to how boring they perceived the football to be. 

 

Ange plays far more attacking, pleasing on the eye football but when it's not right the whole thing turns into a chaotic mess.

If Spurs weren't in London and therefore attracting tourists to fill that soulless bowl, then they're a Wolves or Derby kind of club. That's the bit their fans can't wrap their heads around.

Yes he is stubborn, yes he should change style and philosophy against certain teams, but for me he gets way too much stick when he is working at a club that has ridiculous expectation whilst equally having huge problems.

 

The facts are that the only managers in the English Premier League that have had a more successful managerial career than Ange are Emery and Pep. That’s 2 managers out of 20.

To be fair pal, anyone with a pulse would have had the success he had in Scotland. He is a good manager, nothing more nothing less and any trophy he won in Scotland should have an * beside it
