Ange Postecoglou is not under threat of Spurs sacking – Sources reveal

With Spurs fans openly showing their discontent, the manager’s position may feel precarious, yet the club’s leadership remains resolute in backing their manager. Internal sources reveal there is no risk of a Spurs sacking for Ange Postecoglou.

Tottenham’s season so far

Tottenham’s recent form has been turbulent, with the latest upset against Ipswich marking a low point that left fans vocal in their disappointment. The loss on Sunday not only gifted Ipswich their first league victory of the season but also followed a pattern of inconsistency that has marred Spurs’ campaign.

Not long ago, Spurs fell to Crystal Palace in a shock defeat, granting Palace their only win of the season to date; such results have understandably fuelled concerns among supporters who expected more from Postecoglou’s squad by this stage.

That latest loss to Ipswich was particularly hard for fans to stomach, resulting in boos from the home crowd, discontent that was further fuelled by Spurs missing an opportunity to leap into the top three with a win.

Yet, the season hasn’t been entirely bleak for Tottenham. There have been bright spots, with notable victories against Aston Villa and Manchester United in the league, along with a League Cup win over Manchester City.

Spurs have also shown promise in the Europa League, sitting seventh in the group phase despite a recent loss to Galatasaray. The mixed form reflects both the promise and challenges of Postecoglou’s second season, as he aims to instil his philosophy and build cohesion within a squad that remains prone to lapses.

Currently sitting 10th in the Premier League table, Spurs have endured a campaign marked by fluctuating form, with five wins, five losses, and a single draw across eleven matches. The club now faces the daunting prospect of a return against Manchester City following the international break, a match that will no doubt test both players and manager.

Ange Postecoglou is not close to Spurs sacking

Despite the growing frustration from fans and the recent boos at the stadium, Tottenham’s higher-ups are not considering sacking Ange Postecoglou. According to Football Insider, ‘Ange Postecoglou is not in sack danger at Tottenham despite growing fan frustration after the 2-1 defeat against Ipswich on Sunday.’

The source further emphasised the confidence club chiefs hold in Postecoglou, noting, ‘The Australian has plenty of credit in the bank with club chiefs after his first season in charge at Spurs, which saw the club finish fifth.’

While Postecoglou himself has admitted the team’s inconsistency is “down to me,” there is little appetite within the Tottenham boardroom to make a hasty decision.

The club’s leadership appears committed to providing the manager with time to steer the squad through this challenging stretch, believing his initial season earned him a level of patience and understanding from those at the top.

Can Tottenham recover and achieve consistency?

In the wake of yet another missed opportunity, Tottenham fans are left to wonder if this team, under Postecoglou’s guidance, has what it takes to mount any tangible challenge for silverware. The Ipswich defeat, in particular, feels like a watershed moment for supporters who have seen a familiar pattern: when expectations rise and the pressure builds, Spurs often stumble rather than rise to the occasion.

For many, Sunday’s match was a reminder of this painful trend, and the boos reflect an enduring scepticism about whether this squad, as currently constructed, possesses the resilience required for success.

The numbers underscore Spurs’ struggles with consistency; five losses in their opening eleven games is not the mark of a team destined for the upper echelons of the table. Unless Postecoglou can address this, the outcry from fans is unlikely to subside anytime soon.

And while the Europa League run is cause for cautious optimism, such midweek success may prove to be a temporary balm for the more persistent issues that Spurs face.
