How Ange Postecoglou now feels about chances of keeping Tottenham job

The Independent’s Miguel Delaney has revealed whether Tottenham Hotspur have made a decision on the future of Ange Postecoglou and has shared what the Australian feels about his chances of keeping his job.

Some sources have claimed that Tottenham’s Europa League win is unlikely to influence their decision on Postecoglou’s future.

However, there is no doubt that it would be a very bold call for Daniel Levy to sack the first Spurs manager to deliver a title to the club since 2008.

Some suggested prior to the final that Postecoglou may walk away on a high after winning the Europa League trophy, but the Australian has refused to do that.

In fact, after getting his hands on the trophy, Postecoglou made it clear that he had unfinished business at Tottenham, putting the ball firmly in Levy’s court.

What does Ange Postecoglou think about his chances of staying at Tottenham?

The Independent’s chief football writer Miguel Delaney has now revealed what the Tottenham board and Postecoglou are thinking at the moment as the club continues to celebrate their historic success.

Delaney claims that as of Friday, ahead of the club’s trophy parade, the decision makers at Spurs had not finalised their decision on the 59-year-old’s future.

However, the journalist remarked that the expectation at N17 is that the Australian will depart at the end of the season.

In fact, Delaney adds that even Postecoglou himself feels he is likely to lose his job, putting his own chances of staying at just 5 per cent.

Why the emotions of Europa League success should not affect Tottenham’s decision

Many Tottenham Hotspur fans, who wanted to see the back of Postecoglou until a few days ago, would have changed their minds after the events of Wednesday.

One can certainly understand their emotions, given that the Australian has delivered silverware to the long-suffering Spurs faithful after 17 years.

However, Levy and the Tottenham hierarchy cannot allow emotions to overrule reason while making the decision, with the Lilywhites at a crossroads ahead of the summer window.

It is worth pointing out that the last Spurs manager to win a trophy was Juande Ramos, who was sacked months later after getting two points in the first eight games in the 2008-09 season.

While Postecoglou will undoubtedly go down as a Tottenham legend, the Ramos episode is a reminder that a trophy win alone does not necessarily make one the right manager for the club.
