The Now-Irrelevant 2024/25 Relegation Battle (Without Everton!)

[formerly manx toffee]

…..amazed Spurs haven’t already sacked their manager.

Odd isn’t it. He is massively down beat in his post match interviews. That must permeate through the team. Absolutely devoid of all confidence, top to bottom.

At least he hasn’t turned on the players publicly yet. He will.

 

[Gallaeo]

Keeping RVN is a positive angle of them winning today.

And we go ahead of Spurs when we win the derby

I don’t think sacking Ange solves anything. Problem is the squad. Unfortunately Ange will pay the price.

 

[GrandOldTeam]

I really think Spurs are going to have a battle on their hands in two weeks with Ipswich. I see Delap really exposing their defence.

They'll have sacked one of the worst Premier League managers in history by then.

I hoped we'd seen him off, knowing they had Leicester coming up.

Spurs as the easiest team to play against right now - I'm convinced their players want him gone. I mean, Tamworth...

 

[Thomasc]

Spurs lose this and Levy will surely pull the plug on the manager.

He’s sacked managers for far less than this.

 

[sbbefc]

Spurs will get a new manager and win a few games. They have decent players. We need Leicester to lose so we can fully relax. Not arsed about the faint posibility of catching them.

 

[ValBlue]

Yes, Dyche going to Leicester and sailing past us to relegate us, a perfectly normal scenario that is likely.

Nobody said that. Literally nobody said that.

You’re taking a sentiment to the extreme to try and make people look like bellends.

….they look bereft of defensive organisation regardless of availability.

 

[Rodebaard]

Don't know why they took off Richy. Looks like spurs could do with a striker on the pitch

I've heard similar. Odd story but my mate met Vicario's parents (said it was odd) and they had a chat about how naive he sets the team up and how players don't all buy in ! This was November time so probably some truth in that.

However, players downing tools to out a Manager is bad juju. Don't like that one bit.

 

[brieverton]

Should keep us honest for next week if Leicester hold out. That said I would have preferred Spurs to win.

What a mess Spurs are, it's quite enjoyable. Are they still getting their Super League invite based on turnover?

I they do Leicester will stay up.

He'll make them defensively more solid and they have a player or two that can snap up a chance.

Dyche is going to Leicester in a couple of weeks max. So we're left hoping that yesterday's man Moyes has us 5th from bottom and with breathing space in this relegation fight when he does just to give us a chance.

 

[CielosGrises]

6 points clear with a game in hand - at this point signing players and winning our matches matters more than those below.

Spurs though, oh dear.

 

[JLW]

Worse. We now have a manager with zero ambition and a track record of not even trying to compete and win big games for us. Moyes is the very epitome of a negative manager.

What????
Weve just had a manager who didnt or should i say couldnt compete with Southamptons Fulhams Bournemouths of this world.

At the very least Moyes goes and believes he can win against these type of teams.
The ginger fella before him set up like we was playing 70s Brazil every week.

Only just came back, would be load management.
