Tottenham Hotspur are again at a stage where many supporters are doubting the manager.
That was the case for much of last season, where domestic form suggested Ange Postecoglou should be shown the door immediately, but the chance of winning the Europa League paused things.
In the end, the coach managed to secure that trophy with victory over a terrible Manchester United in the final. That, and subsequent Champions League qualification, wasn’t able to save Postecoglou.
Thomas Frank arrived in the summer and there’s doubts already. Heavy defeat to Arsenal won’t have helped, but before that his playing style was being questioned.
Tottenham have had six permanent managers since Tim Sherwood left the club in 2014. Jan Vertonghen played under most of them, as well as Andre Villas Boas.
Ajax are facing Benfica today, so Jan Vertonghen has been speaking to the media. Jose Mourinho is now manager at the Lisbon club, and Vertonghen rates him.
Whilst the Portuguese coach didn’t manage to win anything with Spurs, the former defender believes he’s a winner regardless.
