Tottenham fans must hold their nerve and trust Ange Postecoglou

Any fan base will become nervous when they lose at home to their fiercest opponents, and since

Sunday’s loss to Arsenal, there have been more whispers of disquiet over Ange Postecoglou’s

strategies among Tottenham supporters.

Fans during the derby continued to sing Postecoglou’s name, demonstrating his immense popularity among supporters. However, at least on social media, his high-risk, attacking style of play seems to be dividing the genuine believers (evAngelists) from the sceptics (Angenostics).

Postecoglou’s supporters “trust the process” and believe he is just beginning an exciting project. In contrast, detractors question if Postecoglou’s style of play would ever succeed in the Premier League and periodically call for more pragmatism and flexibility from the Australian.

Pundits are also debating Tottenham’s style of play more and more in the media, which is another manifestation of the discussion. “Next season, it will need to change. “You cannot continue to play this gung-ho style of football,” former Arsenal attacker Paul Merson stated following the derby.

It was all but inevitable that Postecoglou would experience a rough patch of results and be urged to

alter his approach, as this has happened to every forward-thinking manager who has attempted to change the culture of a top Premier League team, from Mikel Arteta at Arsenal to Jurgen Klopp at Liverpool.

Even Pep Guardiola, who came to Manchester City in 2016 having won 21 trophies, was

questioned about his ability to succeed in England, proving that no one is exempt from the

admiration that English success demands of them.

It makes sense that some Spurs supporters might be a little impatient and not be all that interested

in a rebuild.

But neither Rome nor Arteta’s Arsenal or even Guardiola’s all-conquering Man City were created overnight. The angenostics will have a point if the Spurs are still in the lead and continue to make

the same errors after six months. But for the time being, they ought to remain composed.

Even if their campaign fizzles out, Spurs have already made significant strides under Postecoglou

and will surpass most pre-season expectations. In the grand scheme of things, Spurs are a team that

is heading in the right direction, and as Postecoglou keeps developing, there is cause for optimism.
