The concern for gooners is they were 11 points short this season....

They've never had three 2nds in a row. They've had a 1st 3rd 2nd. And a 1st 1st 2nd 3rd. Even a 1st 2nd 1st 2nd 1st 2nd.

But never a 2nd 2nd 2nd . :thumb:

I'd give absolutely nothing. Prefer me trophy and Champion's League football while sitting pretty in 17th. 🤣

Many more will switch to 'pool or City soon. I've noticed this from Asian fans. Spurs might catch a few now we've won a trophy.

After your complete dismantling of Real Madrid, I dreaded this would be your year in Europe. Fortunately... :D

Mates sent me videos of the Arsenal women's parade for their Champion's League win. Not quite the same as the mens team doing it, but the town turned out for a hell of an event. Both Tottenham and Arsenal had parties this week.

The 1st, 3rd, 2nd was in the prem. 2020 season onwards (they came second the season before too). The other two finishes I mentioned were back in the Shankly, Paisley days.

Insider news says that Ange will be sacked, Tottenham are actively looking for a new manager. Can only wait for confirmation I suppose.

You have to think they have been looking for a while already just a case of finding someone 'better'

The euro win makes no difference to the Board as to his ability IMO especially how you look at the performance on the night

Incredibly they lost 22 Prem games this season but beat man city 4-0 at City!

Yup, unfortunately the league form (regardless of periods where we had umpteen players injured) was horrendous. I'll be honest, after the cup win, I'm kinda willing to get behind Ange for another season to see if he can turn it around. The players all seem to be behind Ange with one or two hinting that they won't hang around if Ange is sacked.

Ho hum, we'll have to wait and see. All I will say is, if PSG play like they did yesterday in the Super Cup against us, I wouldn't argue with it not being televised. :laugh:

Thomas Frank and Marco Silva are apparently top targets to replace Ange.
