Just two weeks of winning the cup! Tottenham Light Speed ​​fired the champion coach s locker room fryer

2:57am, 8 June 2025【Football】

The champagne smell that won the championship has not yet dissipated in North London. Tottenham Hotspur’s official announcement directly shocked everyone:

coach Post Koglu is dismissed! This matter is too in a hurry. It has only been two weeks since the UEFA Champions League trophy was won historically in Bilbao. The meritorious coach is about to leave? Not to mention that the fans were buzzing, looking at the exclusive revelation of Matt Law, a famous reporter from the Telegraph, the camp was blown up in the locker room, and the players' dissatisfaction was so loud that some players even had the idea of ​​leaving the team. Chairman Levi's operation is fast enough, and it is really ruthless.

Do the time back to the point. In late May, in Bilbao, Spain, the entire Tottenham Hotspur team was immersed in great joy. Postkoglu was thrown high by the players, and the heavy UEFA Champions League trophy ended the club's many years of championship drought, which was of great significance. The club's official announcement also clearly stated that Coach Obo has led the team to reshape the tradition of offensive football. His name will be one of the only three coaches in the team's history to win the European Championship, tied with legends Bill Nicholson and Keith Birkinshaw. This honor is very important and is truly written into the history of the club.

However, sweetness is always short-lived. After the end of the league, Postkoglu himself also experienced nearly two weeks of uncertainty about the future. In the past two days, the notice of get out of class ended up waiting. What makes the situation even more complicated is that according to reliable reports (Matt Law), chief football officer Scott Moon, who has always been regarded as an important supporter of the club's senior management, was also fired almost at the same time. This series of personnel shocks was described as dropping a bombshell in the locker room, and the players expressed strong doubts and anger about how and when they handled it. Some sources bluntly stated that the first thing the new coach faces when he takes office is a locked and challenging locker room environment.

Why will the get out of class be dismissed while holding the championship trophy?

Tottenham's official announcement explained very clearly, and it was the disappointing record in the Premier League. Although the momentum was good at the beginning of the season, he then scored only 78 points in the last 66 games in the Premier League, eventually ranking eighth in the league, setting a record for the club's worst record in the Premier League era. The club acknowledged that winning the UEFA Cup was a great achievement, and also mentioned objective factors such as injuries and European priorities. However, after careful evaluation, the board of directors believes that in order to ensure that the team remains competitive on multiple fronts (especially possible European and Leagues next season), strategic adjustments and changes directions must be made. The decision was described as "one of the toughest decisions", but Levi and management chose to act for the long-term benefit of the club.

Football professionals also have an interpretation of this.

The core contradiction is that the glory of the European game cannot conceal the continued downturn and lack of stability in the domestic league. The fierce competition in the Premier League is well known, and the eighth place score is obviously lower than expected to have a lineup like Tottenham. The club management obviously lacks enough confidence in the improvement of the league's performance, worried that this will restrict the team's overall competitiveness in multi-line combat. In addition, the synchronous changes in senior personnel (Moon's departure) also reflects that the club's internal power structure and strategic direction may be adjusted. In the world of football, results (especially marathon results like the league) are always the bottom line. The reactions of fans and the media circle are even more mixed.

The Internet was instantly inflated, with clear views: some people were angry and confused, thinking that it was too unkind to speculate on coaches just after winning the European Championship, which made the hearts of heroes disappointed; others were relatively pragmatic, believing that the eighth-ranked score in the league was indeed a flaw, and the change of coaches was logically supported, but they had a lot of complaints about the way and timing of the handling; and many Tottenham fans began to warmly call on the return of former coach Pochettino, viewing him as an ideal candidate to stabilize the overall situation; of course, there are also jokes, such as the efficiency meme of "sending the cup to get off the get out of class". All kinds of voices reflect everyone's concern for this team.

From the perspective of rules, if the coaching contract is terminated early, the club usually needs to pay the salary during the remaining contract period as compensation for termination according to the contract.

Postkoglu took office in the summer of 2023, and the contract term has not been fully disclosed, but he left office after less than two years of coaching. This compensation is undoubtedly a significant expenditure for the club's finances. This is a common but expensive business operation in the professional football world.

Postkoglu left, leaving behind a shiny Europa League trophy and a locker room that needs stitching. The top leaders of the club made the decisions they thought were necessary based on their judgment on the future, but obviously also bear huge public opinion pressure and internal governance challenges. The new coach, whether it is the rumored Thomas Frank, Marco Silva, Ilaura, or the fans' beloved Pochettino (although the report says there is no contact yet), will shoulder the dual mission of revitalizing the league's strength at the competitive level and revitalizing the team's morale at the spiritual level. Where is Tottenham's future going? Fans are all waiting for it, hoping that the management's decision this time will eventually lead this team of talented players to a brighter arena and rekindle hope. Who do you think is the most suitable to take on this burden? How should clubs rebuild trust?
