As a team, Southampton isn’t bad, but very disjointed. Individually they are very outclassed one on one.

Spurs should do what they can to keep the pressure up and hopefully score a second goal before the half, put this one to bed.

Maybe, but IMHO, like other here (@Schulz2.0), I think the problem isn't COMPLETELY the manager and more on the club.

What I would like is a real fucking plan from the organization! Since they dumped Poch with little to no plan, the managerial job has been a rotating door!

Mourinho (2019–21) - hired mid-season, fired mid-season
Masoni (2021) - interim
Nuno (2021) - fired after 17 games!!!
Conte (2021–23) - hired mid-season, fired mid-season
Stellinii (2023) - interim and we had to fire him
Masoni (2023) - interim
Postecoglou (2023–)

If you include Poch in that, you're talking 8 managers across 5 seasons (which is now 6 seasons)!!! WTF!?!?!?!?

The club is a mess and while maybe the manager is wrong, this is like complaining about the table settings on the fucking Titanic.

Agree, we lack vision. We lost it quickly after the UCL Final. Not signing anyone for 18 months had a cumulative effect that showed up the last few months of '19, and continued with Poch and Mourinho and Conte. Maybe the focus was on the new stadium, maybe ownership was cheap or incompetent, either way, Spurs haven't recovered.

Poch ain't without his faults, but the current state of Spurs isn't all his fault for sure.

I'm not even sure it was that late. I think the front office lost the plot before the UCL final. Poch would be gone less than  6 months after that final, but clearly the issues had started before his firing and likely before the UCL final. The stadium would open in April of that year and that was a big moment for the club.

One thing that went out with Poch, and very possibly before - was his vision of what to do with the club. And without a path of what to do, they are going to be lost.

 

Good read that addresses some of this:

Anyway - who knows?

 

But going back to the Ange talk - I just hope the team stick with him more for consistency and seeing if they can keep advancing. I don't see what firing him will get you.

Kulusevski being out of the lineup is kind of glaring right now. I feel like the punch he brings with the attack is just not there and totally missing.

 100%. Our midfield lacks any depth as well. Need to address that in the transfer period.
