Five things will decide if the Australian keeps his job at Tottenham.
As Daniel Levy stared into the middle distance during a defeat to Chelsea that placed greater scrutiny on Ange Postecoglou, some familiar themes might have been running through the mind of the Tottenham Hotspur chairman.
The club’s head coach retains internal support and backing at Spurs, although the run of four games – against Rangers, Southampton, Manchester United and Liverpool – before Christmas could still prove pivotal to Postecoglou’s chances of holding on to his job. Having spoken to some of those with experience of what Levy looks at and listens to – aside from results and performances – when the going gets tough for his managers, here is how Postecoglou’s fate might be decided.Postecoglou has already faced up to some angry fans over recent weeks, most notably after the defeat to Bournemouth. But it is actually any fan fury towards Levy himself that might prove more damaging for Tottenham’s head coach.
Complaints over the management styles of Mourinho and Conte were taken seriously, while Levy was quick to recognise that the club’s players felt Nuno was out of his depth at Spurs. Levy’s brother-in-law Allan Dixon, who has held the titles of player liaison officer and team manager, has been a constant and popular presence around the dressing room over recent years.
