Igor Tudor might be on the verge of leaving Tottenham soon.
Tottenham Hotspur’s relegation prospects became serious after they lost 3-0 to Nottingham Forest at home on Sunday.
Spurs went into the relegation six-pointer against Nottingham Forest on the back of a couple of good results. They claimed a draw against Liverpool at Anfield and a win over Atletico Madrid in their second leg last-16 clash, but were eliminated from the Champions League. This was perhaps the first time in a long while that the fans were confident of their side getting the better of the opponents.
However, Nottingham Forest pulled Tottenham back to earth, with goals from Igor Jesus, Morgan Gibbs-White and Taiwo Awoniyi inflicting pain on Igor Tudor and the fans. The defeat to Forest saw Tudor’s side drop to 17th in the table- just one point above the relegation zone with seven games to play in the Premier League.
Former Spurs midfielder makes desperate plea to the club’s board to re-appoint Ange Postecoglou
Totally devastated with the result against Vitor Pereira’s side, former Spurs midfielder Jamie O’Hara has suggested that the club needs to make a ‘desperate’ move to replace the beleaguered Tudor. As the North Londoners are in crisis, he is ready to take back Ange Postecoglou to save the club from getting doomed.
“Right now, in the desperate measures that we’re in, I probably would take Ange [Postecoglou]. I probably would,” Jamie O’Hara said on the talkSPORT show.
Tottenham chiefs must be debating whether another managerial change is needed. With the international break on us, they have to come to a quick decision, albeit one in a dignified manner as far as Tudor’s situation is concerned, after his father, Mario, passed away at the weekend.
Ange Postecoglou returning to Tottenham looks highly unlikely
Tudor’s failure to turn the fortunes around after replacing Thomas Frank has seen Tottenham firmly become a part of the relegation dogfight. It is a situation that former head coach Ange Postecoglou became all too familiar with during his spell in North London. The Greek-Australian tactician guided Spurs to its first piece of silverware in 17 years last season, with our boys defeating Manchester United in the Europa League final.
He stayed true to his promise of delivering a major trophy in his second season; however, a dismal Premier League season and a 17th-place finish culminated in Ange Postecoglou’s sacking. It was a baffling decision from former CEO Daniel Levy, especially given Ange appeared to be building something special at the club. Thomas Frank replaced Ange and only lasted nine months into the job, which proved how bad Levy’s decision to hire the Dane at first place.
