Tottenham Sack Postecoglou After Europa League Win, Van de Ven Calls Decision Strange

Tottenham Hotspur's decision to sack manager Ange Postecoglou shortly after winning the Europa League has been widely criticized by player Micky van de Ven, who called it a "strange choice." Despite the club's poor Premier League performance, finishing 17th with their worst points total in over a century, Postecoglou was the first Spurs coach in a long time to secure a trophy, earning the respect and support of many players in the squad. Van de Ven emphasized that the decision was ultimately made by the club and that players had little influence over it, while also acknowledging rumors that Brentford’s Thomas Frank is likely to be the new manager. He highlighted Postecoglou's winning mentality and the positive relationship he had with the team, suggesting that the sacking was surprising given these successes. The controversy around the decision has sparked speculation about potential player unrest following the dismissal.
