⚠️ Why Was Ange Postecoglou Sacked?
In a move shocking yet oddly expected, Ange Postecoglou was sacked by Tottenham Hotspur on June 6, 2025 — just 16 days after delivering a historic Europa League win. Despite the silverware, Spurs finished a dismal 17th in the Premier League.
Tottenham’s board, led by Daniel Levy, stated the decision came after “a review of performances” and was not based on emotions from the recent European success.

🏆 Europa League Glory Just 16 Days Earlier
Postecoglou guided Spurs to a 1-0 win over Manchester United in Bilbao, ending a 17-year trophy drought and becoming the third manager in Tottenham’s history to win a European title.
His emotional post-match quote — “Season three is better than season two” — now feels painfully ironic as Ange Postecoglou is sacked just two weeks later.
📉 Spurs’ Premier League Collapse
Tottenham’s league form under Postecoglou was abysmal:
🏟️ 17th place finish
❌ 22 losses in 38 matches
😬 Just 7 points in their final 10 games
🚑 Injury-plagued season
Despite some tactical brilliance in cup competitions, the league collapse left the board with no confidence going forward.
💬 Daniel Levy’s Decision & Fan Reactions
