Tottenham won 3-1 in the 31st round of the English Premier League (EPL) in 2024-2025 season against Southampton at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, England on the 6th (Korea time). The team broke its four-game losing streak (one draw and three losses) in the EPL, but its eyes are still cold.
Some Tottenham fans protested ahead of the match against Southampton, chanting `out' of Tottenham Chairman Daniel Levy. Even coach Enze Postecoglou cannot be free from protests against Levy's resignation.
The prevailing view is that it has already crossed a bridge that cannot be returned. Coach Postecoglou clashed with Tottenham fans again 'Ah-gun' in a 0-1 defeat at Chelsea on the 4th. Pape Sarr, who was replaced, scored an equalizer in the 23rd minute of the second half.
Sarr fired a powerful right footed shot after overcoming a contest with Moises Caicedo. The ball hit goalkeeper Sanchez on the hand and hit the post and shook the Chelsea net. At that moment, Postecoglou threw his right hand into his ears at Tottenham fans and expressed his anger.
But the goal was called off. Chelsea players strongly protested that Sar hit Moises Caicedo in the knee during the earlier contest. The referee conducted an on-field review. It's been a long time, and I've declared a foul. I gave Sar a warning.

"I don't understand what Postecoglou sometimes does," former Tottenham scout Mick Brown said on the 7th in a 'Football Insider'. One of the golden rules of management is that you don't attack your supporters.'His action against Chelsea threw it all out. It was strange that he reacted that way, and some of what he said in the past was strange" he criticized.
He continued "If it were anyone else, I would have said I asked for a replacement. Now the only way to rebuild that relationship is to win the rest of the game this season. But that is very unlikely. When supporters turn around, it is very difficult for any director to stay in the position," he stressed.
Football Insider 's victory over Southampton did little to change the situation. Tottenham has been without a team for 17 years since winning the League Cup in the 2007-2008 season. Coach Postecoglou, who took the helm of Tottenham in July 2023, always lifted the trophy in his second year for each team he led. But it's a cliffhanger at Tottenham.
Tottenham were eliminated in both the Carabao Cup (League Cup) and the FA Cup in February. He is ranked 14th in the EPL. The only hope is the Europa League, which reached the quarterfinals. Tottenham will play Frankfurt (Germany) at home on the 11th in the first round of the Europa League quarterfinals.
Postecoglou is doomed to be replaced if he fails to turn the tables in the Europa League.
