However, after Sunday’s 4-2 loss at Anfield, Spurs are already in fifth place in early May. Despite what has frequently appeared to be a very promising debut season for Ange Postecoglou, they are currently 23 points out of the lead, seven points out of fourth, and in need of a bit of a miracle to secure Champions League participation.
In addition, Spurs’ loss against Liverpool marked their fourth straight loss in which they had given up 13 goals. What then went wrong? And could Big Ange clarify? We’ve put that question to our
We must maintain some perspective on Tottenham. They lost one of their best players ever—a goal machine and a club legend—when they sold Harry Kane on the eve of the season.
Not many people, including me, thought they would be among the top four this season. However, Ange Postecoglou entered the game and increased expectations once again, nearly tantalizing Tottenham supporters into thinking that it would be a letdown to not make it to the Champions League.
Thus, Big Ange merits recognition. But Tottenham’s collapse at the conclusion of the season is inexcusable. There are serious concerns regarding the manager because of the terrible defense and poor performances.
I can’t stop thinking about this quote. In actuality, Postecoglou stated this. “I’ve been asked questions on set-pieces before in my coaching career, but I’m not interested in it,” the coach said. Never have been. He made that statement on Wednesday, and on Thursday, Tottenham gave up a set piece.
I don’t think that is acceptable. He was discussing set pieces and coaches for set pieces. They have given up fifteen goals from set pieces, six of which came from corners. Why not give it a go for yourself? I wonder if Big Ange can achieve the pinnacle of success, given his haughtiness.
