If being a Tottenham fan is difficult most of the time, imagine how Ange Postecoglou must feel.
After a season full of setbacks and few positive results, people are starting to turn their attention to the club’s leadership—particularly Daniel Levy and his associates.
Before diving into the more controversial details, let’s recap some recent news.
The saga of whether Harry Kane will return to Tottenham continues to dominate headlines, as speculation grows that Spurs could make a move for him in the summer.
Meanwhile, reports suggest the club has its eye on a Spanish starlet with four goals this season, currently playing for Malaga CF.
Now, returning to the ongoing controversies at Tottenham, another player caught in the middle of them is midfielder James Maddison, with some believing he has been unfairly relegated to the bench by Postecoglou.
Spurs boss believes fans played a key role in yesterday’s victory
It’s no secret that North London club supporters have grown frustrated with the lack of change.
This frustration has led to chants, protests, and banners demanding action—especially directed at chairman Daniel Levy, who, according to rumours, could step down if necessary.
Yesterday, Tottenham faced Manchester United, securing a victory thanks to a goal from James Maddison.
However, this didn’t stop protests, and the atmosphere at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium remained tense both inside and outside the ground.
While the win provided some temporary relief, it did not erase the deeper issues plaguing the club.
Outside the stadium, thousands of fans protested, expressing their dissatisfaction with ENIC and Daniel Levy.
Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou insisted that the protests did not impact the matchday atmosphere.
Speaking to a Football London correspondent, Postecoglou said: "I mean, obviously I wasn’t outside so I can’t comment on that, but I thought the fans were great today in the stadium. I thought they got behind the team and it was important."
"Like I said it was an important game for us, considering, the build-up for the week and how we had an opportunity to just have a breather and kind of assess things and also allow us to work with the players leading into it.
"You know all the fans contributed to us getting the result we needed," he said.

Tottenham in urgent need of change
Tottenham needs change, and the supporters are running out of patience.
There have been growing questions over the leadership within the club, from the board to the manager. But can we really place all the blame on Ange Postecoglou?
The answer is likely no. This situation has persisted for years. No matter how many managers and players come and go, Spurs continue to struggle.
So what needs to happen? Who should leave?
The victory against Manchester United gave fans a brief glimpse of hope, a reminder of what the club is capable of.
But due to mental blocks, low morale, and perhaps individuals in leadership positions who should no longer be there, Tottenham remains stuck in a cycle of frustration.
