As Tottenham prepare to face Manchester City in the Premier League on Wednesday, fans continue to speculate about the future of the boss.
Despite a 1-4 victory over Ipswich, Spurs remain at a crossroads regarding whether Ange Postecoglou will be replaced.
But before diving into that, let’s recap some key updates from this week.
Reports suggest that Spurs have opened initial talks with midfielder Rodrigo Bentancur over a new contract. The Uruguayan has had both impressive and challenging moments at the club, making his renewal a topic of interest.
Meanwhile, former Middlesbrough manager and mentor to Djed Spence has commented on the young defender’s recent performances and how much he has improved.
Now, back to Spurs' managerial situation—Paul Robinson has suggested that Postecoglou will remain in charge.

Amid this uncertainty, former Tottenham goalkeeper Paul Robinson has shared his thoughts on the Australian’s future.
Speaking to Tottenham News, Robinson stated that, despite the team’s struggles with consistency, there is no reason to make such a drastic managerial change.
Additionally, the former goalkeeper pointed out that during the last transfer window, Postecoglou was not given enough resources to strengthen the squad, making it more reasonable to focus on improving with the current players.
"I think he’s in the job until the end of the season in all honesty," said Robinson. "I think he deserves that opportunity, because there’s no managers available who would jump out and go, that’s the one for us."
"He’s had 12 players injured, probably eight of them would start every game if you like. So you look at how his hands have been tied. For me, he’s there until the end of the season," Robinson concluded.
Of course, Tottenham’s injury crisis is no secret, and it would be unfair to place the blame solely on Postecoglou.
Despite ongoing rumours linking Spurs with a managerial change—potentially bringing in Bournemouth boss Andoni Iraola—Postecoglou remains focused on leading the club forward.
Another candidate to replace Postecoglou, who has been strongly linked with Spurs, is Simone Inzaghi, the current Inter Milan manager.
Unlike Iraola, Inzaghi has been mentioned more frequently in reports.
But for now, with a crucial Europa League fixture just around the corner, the Australian manager must give his all in pursuit of silverware.
