Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou is under increasing pressure with the club 15th in the table after losing 12 of their 22 Premier League matches.

Ange Postecoglou retains the support of Tottenham Hotspur chairman Daniel Levy and the club’s board, but the head coach is facing an important week as he fights to turnaround his team’s form and hold on to his job.

Tottenham head coach Ange Postecoglou has come under pressure in recent weeks following the club's alarming collapse in form but he seems to be safe from the sack - for now

Despite the never-ending slew of injuries and promising campaigns in the cup competitions that could yet bear trophy fruit, such a dismal league run has seen serious pressure mount on manager Postecoglou, who accepted blame for Sunday’s dire first half on Merseyside after a formation switch that backfired badly.

Postecoglou believes in what he is doing and this group of players, perhaps he deserves a bit of belief in return. Support is easy when the team is winning and he has been terribly unfortunate with injuries. Right now what the club needs is to back a manager that has shown that they can compete with anyone in the Premier League when at their best.
