“People won’t be happy” – Postecoglou reveals what Tottenham must do in the next 30 days

Postecoglou wants more from Tottenham players before Christmas

Tottenham Hotspur have a decisive run of fixtures coming up over the next month or so, which could go on to determine the outcome of their campaign. The end of the year is always a busy period, this time combined with action in the UEFA Europa League, as well as the Carabao Cup – so December is really a make or break month for the Lilywhites.

Spurs’ recent ups and downs have meant that there is some work to do especially in terms of maintaining consistency if the team is to secure Champions League qualification for 2025/26. Ange Postecoglou acknowledged the challenge ahead of him and wants the players to give their fans a good account of themselves heading into Christmas. He said the following (via The Independent):

“Christmas is a joyous occasion, irrespective, and I think it should be celebrated. If we’re 10th then people won’t be happy, I won’t be happy, but we might not be 10th.”

While Postecoglou cited 10th place merely as an example, the results this season have been going in such a fashion that the entire top half is separated by a mere handful of points and even one match can influence a team’s rise or fall massively. This holds true for the European spots, in particular, as a number of sides have set the goal of qualifying for the continental cups.

Apart from the Premier League itself, Spurs have to ensure that their Europa League campaign is not shaken up by a recent defeat to Galatasaray by a 3-2 margin. They were second best for much of the outing in Istanbul before the international break and with fixtures upcoming against AS Roma and Rangers very shortly, more dropped points could jeopardise qualification into the next round.

Last but not least, the Carabao Cup is a competition that the club has to take seriously to get its hands on a piece of silverware. Manchester United await Tottenham in the tournament’s next round after they saw off Manchester City in the previous one, and a win over Ruben Amorim’s rejuvenated side on December 17th could really make Spurs favourites to lift the cup.
