The British Telegraph reported on the 25th (Korea time) 'Dejan Kulusevski hinted that Postecoglou's dangerous tactics were not sustainable at Tottenham.
Tottenham is in its second year under Postecoglou this season. Postecoglou says "I've always won trophies in my second year```````. The league remains in 11th place with steady ups and downs, and it is a shame with three Europa League wins, two draws and one loss. The League Cup beat Manchester United to reach the semifinals, but it is difficult to guarantee victory because the opponent in the semifinals is Liverpool. There is no smooth schedule except for the FA Cup.
Postecoglou's tactical problems continue to be pointed out. There is no alternative if Plan A, which consists of excessive forward pressure and high lines, is destroyed. Postecoglou emphasized that he didn't even think about an alternative, but there is already animosity among the players. Kulusevski has openly called for a change in tactics since his last league defeat to Liverpool 3-6.

Kulusevski says "If we want to get results, we have to figure out what to do. It's not just black and whiteAsked if Tottenham's tactics could be sustained, he replied, "'It may not be so.'" Then "We need to improve and find a way. Maybe they should have more balls. But we couldn't. You have to learn next time"We need to find a way through tactical change."
Coach Postecoglou may also have to think about it enough because it is a remark made by Kulusevski, who has a good influence at Tottenham this season and is considered a new ace candidate. If the problem is repeated, the possibility of a confrontation between the squad and Postecoglou could also be raised as Son Heung-min recently ignored Postecoglou's words after the game.
Meanwhile, Postecoglou replied that despite this pressure, there was no change in tactics because it was due to injury problems right now. He said "Even if people want to change my tactics, I won't. Whether someone thinks what I'm doing is good or bad, I'm fine," he said, drawing a line on the possibility of tactical change.
