Tottenham Hotspur’s manager, Ange Postecoglou, openly accepted blame for the team’s subpar performance in their latest match. Speaking to Sky Sports, Postecoglou expressed his dissatisfaction with the team’s display, stating, “We were so far off it and that’s on me today”. He further emphasized the team’s lackluster performance by rhetorically asking, “What do you want, for me to write you a dossier on where it went wrong? We were poor today”.
Recent Context of Tottenham’s Performance
This admission comes in the wake of a series of statements where Postecoglou had previously praised the high standards and contributions of players like Son Heung-min, and emphasized his focus on recruiting determined players to bolster Tottenham’s future prospects. His recent comments contrast sharply with his earlier optimistic outlook, including strategies to challenge Arsenal’s title hopes.
The shift in tone from Postecoglou suggests a critical self-reflection following the recent disappointing match outcome, highlighting the challenges faced in maintaining consistent performance levels throughout the season.
