  • Two cup exits in a three-day span have left Tottenham staring at the prospect of another trophyless season and manager Ange Postecoglou facing the biggest crisis in his time at the club. A 2-1 loss at Aston Villa in the fourth round of the FA Cup on Sunday came on the heels of an exit from the English League Cup semifinals after a 4-0 second-leg thrashing at Liverpool on Thursday.

Ange Postecoglou, the manager of Tottenham Hotspur, is facing significant scrutiny following the team's elimination from both the FA Cup and the Carabao Cup within a week. Tottenham lost 1-0 to Manchester City in the FA Cup and were defeated 2-1 by Fulham in the Carabao Cup, marking their exit from both competitions.

Despite a promising start to the season, the recent cup exits have raised questions about his ability to deliver silverware, with fans and analysts alike expressing disappointment over the team's inability to capitalize on opportunities in these crucial matches.
