There is serious pressure on Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou, but club sources maintain that the coach is in no immediate danger of being sacked

Liverpool hosts Tottenham Hotspur in the second leg of the Carabao Cup semi-final at the beginning of February and the North London club has fresh injury concerns

Jamie O’Hara feels that if Spurs lose to Liverpool and are subsequently eliminated out of the Carabao Cup in the second leg of the semi-final, Ange Postecoglou should be sacked. O’Hara wrote on X: “We are in terrible state, these players are better than 15th, don’t care how many injuries, we are so open it’s embarrassing.”

Ange Postecoglou revealed that Richarlison’s early withdrawal during Tottenham’s loss to Leicester City was due to a problem with the striker’s groin. Richarlison scored his second goal in as many Premier League games to give his side the lead at half-time against Leicester at home.
