Yes, that's my take on it as well

See ya, cuntychops.
Ya won't be missed.
Not my first choice but since he’s here now, I think, as fans of the club, we should give him our backing and see how the season goes. We just have to be patient and give him the time to sort out the mess and change the playing mentality of the players under him. We have to be prepared for him to have a bumpy start with us, before we see any improvement.
Any angst should be directed at those above him.
If he gets us within top six or better, and gets the team playing exciting attacking football (admittedly, not difficult to achieve after our last 3 permanent managers), I think it should be considered a success for his first season.
For him to achieve any form of success he needs to get rid of most (unlikely to be ALL within one TW), of the unwanted players and get in 4 or 5 quality players to replace others in the starting eleven.
As others have previously mentioned, it’s not that the club is unwilling to spend on new players. The issue is not spending WISELY. The most expensive players, arguably, have been flops or not value for money buys - Sanchez, Ndombele, Richarlison .
Many have said that he has only been successful at lower leagues. One reason is that he hasn’t been given a chance to prove whether he can be a success at the top leagues. Now that he has this opportunity, I think he will give it his all. So let’s sit back and see what he can do and maybe after a season or two, we can then be a better judge whether he’s good enough to coach in the top leagues.

TBH, I think Levy's last chance was more than a decade ago. He should have walked after AVB at the latest but probably after giving Redknapp Nelson and Saha. You actually look at the 3 years we finished 4th-5th-4th, Redknapp did that with fuck all incoming really. Then gets sacked.
It is a different game. Of course it's a different game. There's a reason the EPL has 4 and soon to be 5 champions league spots Vs Scotland having 1, requiring a qualifying round. It's a pub league in comparison.
Since Fergie in 1987, the biggest success story of a coach coming south is who? Rodgers? Someone who'd already managed for years in England.
No chance it goes that well. We finished 5th as back then we were a top 5 team.
We'll be competing with City, Woolwich, United, Liverpool, Newcastle, Villa, Brighton next season and I don't think we're up to it.
Thank God it's over, it was getting utter embarrassing…again
Hopefully he'll be the best thing since sliced bread
I’m sure there were a few saying the same thing when Poch came in
I think it’s a step in the right direction and all we can do is see how it turns out
All your new shirt would need would be your 70’s perm!
Fucking hell, is he still crying?
Fully behind Ange. I wonder what he will think when he realises if Kane goes he has a squad that couldn’t beat Ross County or Dumbarton .
Being a Neanderthal, I thought he’d use a spiked club?
Last chance saloon who's gonna sack him?
As many mentioned yesterday Tottenham is the most profitable football team in the world right now , more profitable than most NFL teams also
The board and Lewis must fuckin love and suck his cock daily
The actual football team may be shit but Tottenham Hotspur PLC is absolutely thriving
Brilliant, well done!
