Ange Postecoglou told Tottenham job may be 'bit too much for him' after 17th Premier League loss of season leaves former Celtic boss on verge of sack

Premier League

Liverpool

Tottenham

<p>Another dismal performance on the road has left Spurs languishing in 15th place and on track to record one of their worst Premier League campaigns ever. The 4-2 defeat to Wolves leaves Postecoglou under even more pressure, with Premier League icon Gary Lineker suggesting the step up to the top flight may be too much for the Australian to handle.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Speaking on <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@therestisfootball/videos" target="_blank">The Rest Is Football </a>podcast, the ex-Spurs and Leicester forward said: "Yeah, I’ve obviously stuck up for the football because I enjoy watching Spurs play, but it’s almost like it’s got a bit too much for him.</p><p>"The way things have gone, obviously it’s not easy dealing with defeat after defeat or struggling performances. Even if you do get a bit of bad luck and constantly the world’s against us whining a little bit. I think it’s probably his first time. He’s really had an awful patch as a coach, as a manager everywhere else he’s been.</p><p>"But obviously the Premier League, it’s a sterner test than he’s had before. I think that’s fair to say. But there is still a possibility that he could end up winning a trophy and qualify for the Champions League.</p><p>“But his body language at present almost suggests that he’s downbeat and I think that’s not what you need. As a player, you need your manager to lift you up when things are not going that well. And it’s a shame."</p>

WHAT LINEKER SAID

<p>It appears Postecoglou's future will be decided by Tottenham's success in the Europa League. The club remain in the competition but face a tough test against Frankfurt after drawing 1-1 in the quarter-final first leg. Should Spurs be knocked out in Germany on Thursday, reports suggest the former Celtic boss will be given his marching orders.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Should Spurs manage to get past Frankfurt in Europe, they will face either Bodo/Glimt or Lazio in the semi-finals. But after another uninspiring away performance at Molineux on Sunday, fans of the north London club may not be heading into the match with much, if any confidence that they can win.</p>
