Ange Postecoglou addresses whether he feels backed by Tottenham | OneFootball

Tottenham are in the spotlight as the January transfer window nears its conclusion.

The club are engaged in a battle with multiple teams for a prolific striker, while Dejan Kulusevski recently responded to criticism from frustrated fans.

Meanwhile, young talent Yang Min-Hyeok is set for a loan move to QPR.

However, much of the attention remains on whether Spurs will strengthen their squad before the deadline.

With the team struggling in recent weeks, questions have been raised about the club’s approach to the window and whether Ange Postecoglou has received the support he expected.

So far, Tottenham have yet to sign an outfield player, leaving Postecoglou to navigate a demanding schedule with limited options.

The Australian had previously warned that delaying transfers was a risky strategy, but now, he has provided further insight into his view on the club’s support.

Ange Postecoglou speaks on his support from the board

When asked if he feels backed by the Tottenham board, Postecoglou offered a measured response. Speaking via football.london, he stated:

“Everyone is trying their utmost. I don’t think anyone is working against me.

“I don’t think anyone wants me to fail. I think everyone genuinely at the football club… this kind of situation is a tough gig for a manager. You can be very isolated, you can be very vulnerable. I don’t feel that.

“The people I work with are doing their utmost to try and help me guide us through this. I don’t feel like anyone is blocking that. From my perspective, my focus is firmly on the things I can control which is making sure I prepare a team for a really big game tomorrow.”

Postecoglou’s comments suggest he believes the club’s hierarchy, including Daniel Levy and Johan Lange, are making an effort to secure the right signings.

With just days remaining in the transfer window, it remains to be seen if their work will lead to any reinforcements.

Postecoglou deserves support, not blame

Ange Postecoglou isn’t the problem at Tottenham, he’s actually one of the few positives. The Aussie has given the team a clear identity, but he’s been left hanging by those above him.

Spurs fans are understandably frustrated, but the blame shouldn’t be on the manager. With injuries piling up and no real reinforcements arriving, he’s had to make do with what he has.

Yet, he’s stayed calm and focused. The real issue? The board’s reluctance to fully back him. If Tottenham want to move forward, they need to give Postecoglou the support he deserves, not leave him to struggle alone.
