Former Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou delivered a scathing critique of his old club, asserting they "are not a big club" due to their expenditure and wage structure.
Postecoglou claimed Tottenham's actions contradict their "To Dare Is To Do" motto, as they are unwilling to take the risks necessary for success.
He commented on the sacking of his successor, Thomas Frank, stating that while Frank cannot complain about the results, Tottenham is a "curious club" undergoing significant instability.
Postecoglou highlighted the "major pivot" at the club following his and Daniel Levy's departures, which created an environment of uncertainty for incoming managers.
Postecoglou also suggested that the impact of Harry Kane's departure to Bayern Munich in 2023 has been underestimated, believing Spurs would have secured a Champions League spot with the striker while he was still at the helm.
