Tottenham Hotspur manager Ange Postecoglou expressed frustration and took responsibility for his team’s performance following their 2-0 defeat to Chelsea. The loss marked Spurs’ third consecutive defeat, following losses to Newcastle and Arsenal. Goals from Trevoh Chalobah and Nicolas Jackson secured the win for Chelsea, delighting manager Mauricio Pochettino in his victory over his former club.
Tottenham struggled with set pieces again, conceding both goals from free-kicks. In a post-match interview with Sky Sports, Postecoglou admitted that the performance was not up to standard, stating, “It’s not good enough, and I’ve got to take responsibility for that, that’s on me.” When asked about his message to the players, Postecoglou reiterated his disappointment with the performance and stressed the need for improvement.
Spurs will aim to bounce back when they face Liverpool on Sunday, hoping to avoid a fourth consecutive defeat, a feat they haven’t experienced since the 2002-03 season. The loss leaves Spurs looking over their shoulder at Manchester United and Newcastle, who are both vying for European football qualification.
