After a disappointing FA Cup loss to Aston Villa, former Tottenham player and pundit Jamie O’Hara urged manager Ange Postecoglou to leave.
His comments come amid growing frustration at recent results.
Tottenham suffered consecutive cup defeats in recent days. They exited the Carabao Cup at the semifinal stage when Liverpool ended their run. Then, Aston Villa easily beat Spurs to advance in the FA Cup. Consequently, cup hopes appear to have vanished.
After an impressive first season in which Spurs finished fifth in the Premier League, Postecoglou now faces heavy criticism. Injuries and poor performances have worsened the club’s plight. Moreover, his side has struggled to secure any silverware this season. Thus, doubts over his future abound.
On his X account, Jamie O’Hara did not hold back. He tweeted: “It’s time to go now Ange is out of his depth, Emery is on a different planet compared to him and his players bopped us off the park should of been 5, we’re like reserve team playing in academy games that don’t matter, it’s crazy.” His blunt words have fueled the debate.

In an effort to revitalize the team, Spurs signed Mathys Tel from Bayern Munich in January. Tel scored a goal against Aston Villa late in the FA Cup match. However, his contribution could not salvage the result. Thus, the signing has yet to produce a lasting impact.
Meanwhile, rumors suggest that Tottenham is looking to raid London rivals. The club reportedly targets a 21-year-old Englishman. Moreover, this move aims to boost the squad’s attacking options. In addition, the potential signing could shift the club’s fortunes.
Critics and fans now question the club’s direction. They argue that the team plays like a reserve side in academy games. Furthermore, the poor performances raise serious concerns. Consequently, the pressure on Postecoglou grows daily.
Ultimately, the season appears to be at a crossroads. Tottenham must decide whether to keep their current manager. Therefore, fans hope for a fresh start and immediate improvements. For now, the call for change echoes across North London.
