Postecoglou focuses on rescuing Tottenham's season

|December 12, 2024
LONDON - Tottenham Hotspur boss Ange Postecoglou returns to Glasgow on Dec 12 for a Europa League "Battle of Britain" against Rangers in desperate need of a victory to calm speculation over his future.
-
Spurs have won just once in their past seven games in all competitions - a spectacular 4-0 rout of Manchester City - to tumble to 11th in the English Premier League and ninth in the Europa League.
A 4-3 loss to Chelsea last weekend encapsulated the Jekyll and Hyde nature of the Australian's side in 90 minutes.
Tottenham raced into a 2-0 lead, but gung-ho Postecoglou refused to sit on that advantage and the in-form Blues hit back in a thrilling encounter that swung from end to end.
The Spurs manager bemoaned his team's indiscipline after conceding two penalties, but there has been little sign that they are learning from their mistakes 18 months into his reign.
