I can't believe it Japan were all over them all game and in the last minute the Socceroos score unbelievable.

We will always remember John Aloisi's penalty. Josh Kennedy's header. Taggart's winner against Japan in his hometown ............

BUT now we will also remember Aziz Behich's stoppage-time stunner!! 💯

Ange sacked!
Spurs @17inEPL did not cut the mustard.
Now there's the little questions of who will be the next Spurs manager and what about the player transfers in the current window in prep for a season which includes the Champions League?
There's even talk that Son may go to the Saudi league.
And there's a new CEO (ex Arsenal too) already recruiting key roles, plus there have been directors who have resigned this week.......
"Gee willikers" so much happening at Spurs right now.
Football is never for the fainthearted.

Spurs official announcement on "X"

Following a review of performances and after significant reflection, the Club can announce that Ange Postecoglou has been relieved of his duties.

We are extremely grateful to Ange for his commitment and contribution during his two years at the Club
.Ange will always be remembered as only the third manager in our history to deliver a European trophy.
Thank you Ange

 

[tiger_one]

And Spurs fans social media response is going nuts.
Like


Pochettino got sacked for wanting a painful rebuild.
Mourinho got sacked before a cup final.
Conte got sacked for speaking the truth about the ownership.
Postecoglou got sacked after winning a European trophy and ending our trophy drought.
Levy’s Tottenham.
He hates winning.

The irony is that if Spurs finished sixth and didn’t win a trophy, Postecoglou would not be sacked.
But because he prioritised Europe, won a trophy and secured Champions League football, he is!
It’s crazy, utterly crazy.

 

[tiger_one]

For me, I’m still loving Big Ange instead.

Thanks Ange, look forward to your next gig.
You put Aussie coaching on the map in one of the world’s toughest Leagues. But, of course, the club is always bigger than the individual and the league result was embarrassing, hence you pay the price.
Onward and upward to you and Spurs.

I thought Top 2 in the group are auto qualified...we are 4 ahead of 3rd and 1 game to go

I think you’ll find we are 3 points ahead HT so if we lose its goal difference and they would need to win by 4 goals for us to miss out.
