Ange Postecoglou has not had an easy season at Tottenham.
Indeed, the Spurs squad has been decimated by injuries in recent months, and that has certainly contributed to the north London club’s poor form.
However, Ange Postecoglou hasn’t helped himself at times either.
Postecoglou’s tactics have been questioned all season long, and according to Duncan Castles, speaking on The Transfers Podcast, a few worrying things have happened behind the scenes at Tottenham.
The journalist says that Spurs’ players have been left unimpressed by Postecoglou lately after he lost his temper in the dressing room, while, earlier this season, he actually took a holiday on his own, leaving his assistants to steer the ship.
Meanwhile, earlier this week, Postecoglou seemed to distance himself from his squad, leaving training early on his own, leaving his squad alone.

What Ange Postecoglou has been doing at Tottenham
Castles shared what he’s heard from his sources about Postecoglou.
Quite frankly, Castles paints a grim picture here, claiming that Postecoglou has been angry and isolated at Spurs in recent times.
“I’ve been hearing some interesting stuff about Postecoglou’s relationship with the club and with the players over the past few months and it’s not good. What I’m hearing out of that camp is that the players have been unimpressed with him for some time over various factors,” Castles said.
“For example, in October, he took a holiday and left the assistants to take training with the players. While he took a rest for himself, there are incidents where he’s been throwing stuff around the dressing room and screaming at the players after bad results. Then just last night, I’m told, Postecoglou left training before his players had showered, returned immediately to the team hotel, ate dinner on his own, went up to his room before the players had returned to the hotel to eat.
“Those little bits and pieces tell you there seems to be a disconnect between Postecoglou and the players.”
Ange Postecoglou needs to be sacked
Ange Postecoglou is likely to be sacked by Tottenham in the near future, and that call can’t come soon enough.
Indeed, not only are results on the pitch horrific as of late, Postecoglou is now having an outright negative effect on the squad if what Castles has heard is true.
Spurs are 15th in the Premier League, and while there is a Europa League semi-final on the horizon, a cup run shouldn’t save the Australian.
| Position | Team | Played MP | Won W | Drawn D | Lost L | For GF | Against GA | Diff GD | Points Pts |
| 15 | 32 | 11 | 4 | 17 | 60 | 49 | 11 | 37 |
Manchester United made the exact same mistake last year as they kept Erik ten Hag after winning the FA Cup after a poor season, and Spurs can’t afford to do the same.
The pressure has clearly got to Postecoglou as of late, and the fact that he’s been losing his temper and isolating himself from his playing staff really is poor form, especially at this crucial point of the season.
Postecoglou’s days at Tottenham have to be numbered.
