Tottenham manager Enze Postecoglou is crossing a bridge where he cannot return. Tottenham was completely defeated by Wolverhampton 2-4 in the 32nd round of the English Premier League (EPL) in the 2024-2025 season on the 13th (Korea time).
It was a total crisis with Son Heung-min absent. The decisive mistakes of goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario, Jed Spence, Christian Romero and Lucas Beribal served as the pretext for the defeat. With 37 points, Tottenham fell to 15th place. There are only two points difference between Wolverhampton and West Ham (35 points or more), which are 16th and 17th in the remaining Maginot line. It is fortunate that he is free from relegation.
Britain's 『BBC" pointed out the situation of Tottenham on the 14th. If Postecoglou is looking for a new player at Tottenham, he will have to start with a clean-up of players who have not played properly in midfield and defense and have been neglected. These players could endanger his position, he said.
Tottenham allowed two goals in the first half alone. Rayan Ait-Nuri's first goal in the second minute of the first half began with Vicario's punching mistake. Spence's ridiculous own goal in the 38th minute of the first half was the current state of Tottenham's rear.

Tottenham seemed to save the chase with Matistel's comeback goal in the 14th minute of the second half, but Romero's fatal mistake five minutes later allowed Jürgen Strand Larsen to score his third goal. Hishalisson's goal in the 40th minute of the second half was also not a hope. Wolverhampton scored a net in the 41st minute of the second half when Matheus intercepted Cunaga Verbal's loose pass.
Nevertheless, there is only one reason why Postecoglou remains in office. It's the Europa League. Tottenham were eliminated in both the Carabao Cup (League Cup) and the FA Cup in February. The EPL needs no explanation.
The Europa League is the only stage where you can try to win. However, Tottenham ended up with a 1-1 draw with Frankfurt (Germany) on the 11th at the first leg of the quarterfinals. The second round of the quarterfinals will be held on the 18th in away games.

Postecoglou's priorities are in line for the Europa League quarter-final second leg away to Frankfurt. Son Heung-min, Mickey van der Penn, Pedro Porro and Destiny Udoji did not play, and six of the best 11 were changed and Rodrigo Bentancur was replaced, which explains why.
And for Postecoglou, the Europa League may be the last chance. Postecoglou and Tottenham must be now or never,' he added.
