Ange Postecoglou has had a rough week at the helm of Tottenham Hotspur, especially dealing with the fact that the club is winless in the last five games. While his frustration stems from the lack of victories, most of it was directed towards German striker Timo Werner.
The No. 16 was subbed off at the start of the second half, with the manager giving a scathing remark after the game. However, in a press conference that followed, the manager has seemingly put his anger aside.
Spurs’ next game is against Southampton in the Premier League in two days’ time. With the lack of players at his disposal, Postecoglou unwillingly admitted that he has no choice but to call upon Timo Werner.
Ange Postecoglou says he has no choice but to bring Timo Werner straight back into the fold:

The manager also said that usually there is a price to pay when players have a poor game. However, in the current situation, such penalties do not ‘exist.’ Fans have concluded that Postecoglou will soon get rid of Werner and questioned how bad the German had to be to make the boss lose his cool.

With just three wins to show from the last ten games, Ange Postecoglou‘s future at Tottenham Hotspur has come under considerable doubt. Even though several fans on social media have called for the 59-year-old to be sacked, the manager has vowed to stay.
Spurs’ next games look like a serious challenge, with games against Manchester United, Liverpool, and Wolves in December.

The manager claimed that he still has tremendous desire to get his side out of this difficult situation. With 20 points from 15 games, Tottenham is in 11th position in the Premier League.
While Postecoglou continues to show confidence in his team and his role at Spurs, fans have begun to run out of patience. The manager, however, claims that he ‘loves’ a fight and to be in the middle of a storm, even when everyone doubts. Spurs’ situation is similar in the Europa League, with 11 points from six games placing the club ninth in the standings.
