Ange Postecoglou slams Tottenham’s ambitions as a football club following the sacking of Thomas Frank. 

Frank was sacked after eight months in charge and the club currently find themselves 16th in the league table and five points off the relegation zone.

The Lilywhites have yet to win a game in 2026 and are on the look out for an interim manager until the end of the season.

One man who knows the London-based club all too well is former boss Postecoglou who guided them to Europa League glory last season.

Before the Australian arrived, Spurs hadn’t won a trophy in a staggering 17 years and despite the success, the 60-year-old was sacked due to the club finishing 17th in the league.

The former Celtic boss appeared on The Overlap and didn’t hold back in regards to Spurs’ stature as a football club:

“You know when you walk into Tottenham, what you see everywhere is ‘To Dare Is To Do’ it’s everywhere, and yet their actions are almost the antithesis of that.

“It’s a real curious in terms of understanding what are they trying build. What are they?

“They’ve obviously built an unbelievable stadium, unbelievable training facilities but when you look at expenditure, particularly in their wages structure – they’re not a big club.

“I saw that when we were trying to sign players and we weren’t in the market for those players.”

Postecoglou continued and believes former club aren’t one of the ‘big boys’ and could never see them spending big money in the transfer market like other big clubs:

“Tottenham as a club were saying ‘we’re one of the big boys’ and the reality is I don’t think they are in terms of my experience over the last two years.

“You know when Arsenal spent £100 million on Declan Rice I don’t see Tottenham doing that.”

Postecoglou was sacked by Forest earlier this season after failing to win any of his eight games in charge.

The former Australia manager currently works as a member of UEFA’s Technical Observer Panel.
