Pochettino maintains strong ties with Levy as their contact never truly ended
Tottenham fans are currently split into two sections… one backing Ange Postecoglou and the other calling for his departure by the season’s end. Spurs sit in 14th place… their lowest position in over a decade and have crashed out of all domestic competitions, leaving only the Europa League as their last hope. Success was never going to come easily for Postecoglou at Tottenham, but this international break gives him a crucial opportunity to devise a plan that could save his job.
The response to Tottenham’s pitiful collapse at Craven Cottage last weekend said a lot. It wasn’t simply another poor performance. The match exposed issues within the club, especially when Postecoglou confronted a supporter. It was not the first time he had let his emotions spill over. For a manager, who hasn’t been able to produce any points to ultimately stay in his job, it doesn’t help his cause to express his anger. It only damages the value associated with the club. Moving on from that, Former manager Pochettino and Levy have continued good contact since the Argentine’s departure.
Pochettino’s return feels like a matter of time
The USA coach has maintained a friendly relationship with chairman Daniel Levy, and their communication never ended. Sources indicate that bridges between them were never fully burnt. In hindsight, many believe Pochettino should have taken a short break and returned to Spurs immediately. Instead, he pursued other opportunities in club football and is now leading the US Men’s National Team.
Pochettino and Levy met in Los Angeles before a stadium filled with tens of thousands of empty seats, reflecting the lack of energy and ambition under his leadership. The team struggles with identity, and the project has yet to capture the public’s imagination. Only time will reveal what lies ahead.
