Tottenham manager Enze Postecoglou has expressed his thoughts on the replacement of Erik tenhach. He hinted that if Tenhach were Tottenham, he would not have been fired like this.
According to Football London's report on the 31st (Korea Standard Time), Postecoglou "Eric (Tenhach) was there for about two and a half years." He won a trophy every year and finished third in his first year. Would he have been cut if he had done the record here? I don't know. Would it have been treated the way it is? I don't know."
Manchester United officially announced on the 28th that it had replaced Tenhach. Head coach Ruud van Nisteloui entered the system.
Manchester United appointed Tenhach ahead of the 2022-2023 season. Tenhach led the team to win the 2023 Carabao Cup (EFL Cup) and the 2024 FA Cup. In his first season, he ranked third in the Premier League. However, in this season's Premier League, it fell to 14th place as of the ninth round, losing trust.
It is a difficult achievement to imagine at Tottenham. If Tottenham won the third place in the Premier League and two domestic cups in two years, he will be crowned Tottenham's best manager in the 21st century. Tottenham has won only one major championship since 2000. Since winning the League Cup in 2008, he has been without a title for 16 years.
Postecoglou was concerned that managers were becoming more responsible in modern football.
He said "Everyone says I only need to win trophies, but that's not the case. We need to find an exquisite point where everyone should play their favorite soccer, not miss good players, and perform well. It feels like it's being verified. Some clubs want trophies, not football, and others want football"We have to meet various demands and expectations," he said.
He added "It's difficult, but as you've seen in the past, Eric is a good coach. I will recover soon. His career will continue strongly in the future," he said, supporting Tenhach.
Postecoglou said that in the end, the responsibility is for the coach.

He said he was not interested in maintaining a stable position.
Postecoglou "I've never worried about stability. What is the average term of a coach these days. If you think I'm going to work for five years, that's unlikely. If you worry about those things, you'll end up chasing the tail and making the wrong decision. I know I won't be here forever, but I work as if I will be here forever.'
He wanted Tottenham to be a consistent strong team.
Postecoglou added "I want to achieve sustainable results. Decisions are made accordingly. I usually left after a successful period. The success period of the club I was in lasted longer than I did. I think that is importantHe said he wanted to make a team that Tottenham would not crash even if he left.
Meanwhile, Tottenham advanced to the quarterfinals by defeating Manchester City 2-1 at the Carabao Cup on the 31st. He "I think we defended well. The attack missed several chances. The game against Manchester City is constantly being tested.'
