Tottenham appointed Celtic manager Ange Postecoglou last season.The difference between Jose Mourinho, Nunu Espiritu Santo, and Antonio Conte, who were appointed before him, is that he pursues a distinctly aggressive style of soccer. Since the dismissal of Mauricio Pochettino, who led Tottenham's golden age in the 2010s, Tottenham has appointed a manager who has so far been able to play defensive soccer. Nevertheless, Tottenham did not fit in with the ‘big six’ and became a team that failed to make it to the top four. To fix this by building an aggressive team once again, the team appointed Ange Postecoglou before the start of last season.
However,the team ended up finishing fifth last season, failing to advance to the Champions League.Despite hopes, he has been showing a bad start to the league with one win, one draw and two losses this season.It is time for Tottenham to ask whether Ange Postecoglou should remain in charge.
The most concerning is the recent game. Tottenham has shown a disastrous performance of 3-1 with six losses in their last 10 league games, including last season. In those matches, they have only garnered four points in total. At the heart of this was a four-game losing streak against Newcastle, Arsenal, Chelsea and Liverpool after winning against Nottingham Forest on 8 April, and a month later against Burnley on 11 May.
The biggest factor in Tottenham's poor performance is their mistakes in defence.Tottenham earned 16 runs in set-pieces last season, leaving them with the disgrace of being the most set-piece losing team since 2010.
Also, during 2024, the performance of the second half of the league, was all ruined,not worthy of the name of offensive football.Tottenham's scoring distribution showed 24 of its 31 goals in the second half, and it was completely inappropriate for the name of attacking football as strikers did not score a single field goal in the month between April 3 and May 6.
In the end, Ange Postecoglou's assessment will begin this season. Because Tottenham finished fifth with no European matches or major cups last season,they will have to play on a more grueling schedule this season, due to their participation in the Europa League. Also, the biggest part is the poor performance of the players. Both Brennan Johnson and Richarlison were proven resources. Both players are from the English league and have shown good performances over the past few seasons. The reason they were hired at an expensive price is because they have already been verified in the league.
Nevertheless, I think it is too much to blame the players for their poor performances. Ange Postecoglou is not using recruiters, cannot find the flexibility of tactics, nor can he find the aggressive side he showed at the beginning of the league.Ange Postecoglou Tottenham's future for Tottenham is still uncertain.
