Postecoglou under pressure: Is the coaching change at Tottenham now?

Nordlondon, Großbritannien - The situation at Tottenham Hotspur is caught: head coach Verzecoglou is exposed to violent criticism after the Spurs have lost 0-2 against Fulham on Sunday. After the game there was even a heated exchange between Postecoglou and an dissatisfied fan, as video recordings show. Current place in the table 14 brings the club in Nordlondon in trouble, despite the quarter-finals in the Europa League. There is reportedly a change of coaching in the room, whereby Andoni Iraola from AFC Bournemouth and Marco Silva von Fulham are traded as possible successors, according to the message on Laola1.at.

Postecoglou himself commented on the continuing problems after the defeat: "It is certainly a difficult season so far. But I have the feeling that we have lost too many games from which we could have taken something from." This was already the third winless game in a row for Tottenham. The balance under Postecoglou, which only took over in the summer of 2023, is alarming. With a point cut of 1.59, he is behind his predecessor Antonio Conte, which further tightens the sporting situation. According to Transfermarkt.de, the two trainers Iraola and Silva, despite the terms of their contracts until 2026, could show interest in the trace position because they are much more successful with their clubs.

Potential successors shine

Andoni Iraola is currently leading Bournemouth to a solid tenth place and is known for the fact that the club is already interested in extending its contract. But the temptation to take over Tottenham could thwart these plans. Marco Silva, on the other hand, has stabilized Fulham again and again since his arrival in 2021 and is currently taking eighth place in the Premier League. Silva could also be considered an attractive candidate with an exit clause of around 6 million pounds. With a catastrophic season at the game, more than ever, a decision regarding Postecoglous Future is being worked on, while the pressure is growing from all sides.
