But the players have given up on him. So he has to go.

That's just modern football summed up.
what has he been trying to do other than his high line tactics and makes friends with media so they take it easy on him when results like tonight happen.

Calm down, there are 23 games left and packed Christmas fixture list ahead.
Chelsea only 4 behind and Arsenal only 6.
Chelsea also have the benefit of playing nearly an entire different team in a Mickey mouse European Competition.
Far from over this just as us neutral fans who don't support anyone in the Top 4 should want it.

Soccer is full of risk averse coaches from the lowest levels to the highest; those who expect the ball to be launched at the first sign of danger.

What Ange is trying to coach is that if all your teammates are attuned to taking risks, then the whole thing becomes less risky. For simple reason is they continually make themselves available even if they don't particularly want the ball in those positions.

Is it all a bit mad? No doubt. But a full strength Spurs are only a no.6 and a right back away from making it work.
