It feels like the walls are beginning to close at Ange Postecoglou in Tottenham Hotspur.
The Australians may be two favorable games from the Europa League finals, but at least this season it has been nothing more than a horror show.
In the Premier League, for example, his team lost 18 games.

So it’s not surprising to see reports reconnecting the club to a potential alternative in recent weeks, including one potentially repeatable candidate for Mauricio Pockettino.
Tottenham manager search
Before reaching the man in question it’s worth looking at some of the other names that were recently promoted for their move to the N17, such as former player Scott Parker.
The former midfielder has just led Burnley to a record-breaking promotion in the Premier League.
But the name that may inspire hope for the faithful Lily White is Marco Silva.
Manager Focus
Who is the best coach on the land? Football FanCust’s Manager Focus series aims to reveal everything.
The Portuguese manager has been in the hot seat at Fulham since July 2021 and, thanks to his achievements, he has done a great job and has transformed the Yo-Yo Club into the comfortable mid-table side in the past.
However, when it comes to overachieving the club’s manager this season, it’s impossible to overlook Andoni Iraaura, and the Spurs don’t seem to be the case.
According to a recent report from Mail Online, the club feels that Postecoglou will be xed and the Spaniard will be the main candidate to replace him when a decision is made, regardless of what happens in Europe.
It would be a bold, exciting, and potentially dangerous appointment, but the club should follow suit, especially as it feels similar to Pockettino’s employment.
Why is Irola possible to reach Pochi 2.0?
So, while that may sound like a reach, there are some clear reasons why hiring Iraora could be like a repetition of Pockettino.
Like Argentina with Southampton, for example, he will move from a club transformed from a relegated feed to a real top half candidate for Bournemouth.
What’s more, unlike Parker, for example, the Spaniard who claims analyst Ben Matinson is “one of the best in the league,” has a clear dedication to playing entertaining, exciting football.
On top of that, he will come to help make something in North London with a team with a number of younger and exciting prospects, including Mikey Moore, Lucas Bergval and Archie Gray, with a team with a number of younger and exciting prospects.
Last but not least, before the current USMNT boss handed over the reins at the N17, he led former La Liga to two amazing mid-table finishes.
Similarly, before heading to Dorset, the Cherries boss built a considerable reputation for himself in Spain, helping to guide perennial underdog Leio Vallecano in line with his unexpected promotion in 2021.
Ultimately, Iraola has the potential for a resume, playing style and sensational appointment of the Spurs, and the fact that his employment can closely reflect Pockettino’s employment is only above.
