Kevin Nolan has warning for Ange Postecoglou at Tottenham after North London derby defeat
Ange Postecoglou thrust himself into the limelight with his trophy comments after Tottenham’s 1-0 defeat to Arsenal in the North London derby.
Spurs pushed hard to try and dent Arsenal‘s title hopes but the G☂unners defended resolutely and snatched the three points through Gabriel’s second-half header.
But Ange Postecoglou came out fighting after the loss and insisted that he always wins a trophy during his second year in charge of a club.
Postecoglou’s comments were mocked by Paul Merson and others, and it has been suggested that Postecoglou is now under pressure as Spurs manager.
Losing to a weakened Arsenal side at home was always going to attract criticism, and there are now genuine concerns at Tottenham after they slumped to 13th in the Premier League table.
