Tottenham decide against sacking Ange Postecoglou following Leicester defeat
Alasdair Gold: Tottenham hierarchy reportedly make decision on Ange Postecoglou's future and transfer plans for final week of window
Is Ange Postecoglou’s Position at Tottenham in Jeopardy?
It’s fair to say that no other manager under Daniel Levy’s tenure would have survived a prolonged run of poor form like the one Ange Postecoglou is currently enduring.
Tottenham are now at serious risk of being drawn into a relegation battle, with the Australian coach appearing to run out of solutions.
While Postecoglou could point to the club’s long list of injuries, many believe he should still be getting more from the players available to him.
After his side’s defeat to Leicester at home, the 59-year-old admitted that “a fair chunk of people” would likely want him dismissed.
Alasdair Gold Reveals Tottenham’s Plans
Despite the recent loss to Leicester, Football.London’s Alasdair Gold reports that Tottenham have no plans to sack Postecoglou yet.
According to Gold, the club has decided to back their head coach for the time being, acknowledging the difficult circumstances surrounding the major injury crisis.
Gold also mentions that Spurs will attempt to sign at least one player before the transfer window closes on February 3 to aid Postecoglou.
Transfer Inactivity Shows Lack of Trust in Postecoglou
The delay in bringing in new signings suggests a lack of full confidence in Postecoglou from the club’s decision-makers.
Tottenham seem reluctant to spend on the players he wants, unsure of his long-term future at the club.
It’s likely that the club will prioritize loan deals over permanent signings in order to minimize risk while they assess Postecoglou’ssituation.
