Journalist confirms Ange's job is 100% safe | OneFootball

It's pretty safe to say that there is plenty said about Tottenham Hotspur manager Ange Postecoglu. In his second season at the club, Spurs currently sit 12th in the Premier League, having lost 10 of their first 20 games of the season. However, there is an absolutely unprecedented injury (and illness) crisis, that gives him some leeway in terms of the result.

However, even that crisis splits opinion within parts of the fanbase, with some fans suggesting that these injuries are as a result of Ange's highly intense methods, that will lead to more injuries. Some also suggest that with such a small amount of players unavailable, Ange should adapt his style of playing to make sure the physical toll, that comes with playing twice a week is reduced.

Ange Postecoglu not under any internal pressure at Spurs

Nevertheless, regardless of anyone's opinion on the matter, the 59-year old's job is currently safe, as per David Ornstein, who told NBC Sports (02:20) on Sunday: "Ange Postecoglu is 100% safe in his job, I'm told. There is no uncertainty over his future, despite the pressure he appears to be feeling in some of his public comments.

They're backing him to lead this project forward, and they will hope he delivers. They've got a chance of a League Cup trophy, a Europa League trophy, they're focusing on that, and they are also fighting to get into the top four, although realistic about their chances on that too."

Whilst frustrations are totally appreciated and understandable, this does feel like the right thing to do. Who are the club going to get right now, who could turn the season around? The Premier League results are frustrating, no doubt. However, even without the big context applied of all the missing players, Spurs don't need to try and get a top four finish.

Back in 2022, we saw the club get top four. What did that end up achieving? The club have got top four a number of times in the last seventeen years. Been there and done it. They have not won a trophy in that time. That has to be the aim.

The Carabao Cup feels unlikely, with who is in the way, both in the semi-finals and the final. However, the Europa League is there to be got at, particularly with no clubs coming down from the Champions League as a result of the new format.
