Under Pressure: Spurs Manager Faces Criticism After Poor Run
North London club in a disappointing 14th place
Tottenham Hotspur’s manager, Ange Postecoglou, finds himself under growing pressure after his team’s latest Premier League defeat against Chelsea.
Fans expressed their frustration loudly.
During the game, they booed Postecoglou’s decisions and chanted, “You don’t know what you’re doing,” in response to his substitutions.
However, the Australian manager insists he remains focused and unaffected by the criticism.
Postecoglou’s Calm Response to Fan Criticism
In his post-match press conference, Postecoglou addressed the backlash:
“It doesn’t affect me. If the supporters feel that way, they’re entitled to express themselves. They’ll be here long after I’m gone.”
He added, “I’m focused on what I can control — our style of play, our mentality, and our behaviour on the pitch. I can’t control the fans’ reactions, but I can control our football.”
This level-headed response comes at a crucial time for Spurs, who are struggling to find form.

Chelsea Edge Out Rivals in Tight Clash
The only goal of the match came from Enzo Fernandez, who headed home following a precise cross by Cole Palmer, recently returned from injury.
The result added to Chelsea’s momentum and deepened Tottenham’s woes.
As Spurs continue to underperform, the pressure mounts on Postecoglou to turn things around.
While the manager remains composed, the upcoming fixtures will be crucial in determining whether he retains the support of the club and its passionate fanbase.
