Ange Postecoglou has come out swinging for his team after Tottenham were knocked out of the two domestic cups in one week, piling more misery on an ailing side. But nevertheless, some Spurs fans in the football.london comments section say that any possibility of relieving Postecoglou of his duties at this stage wouldn't do anyone any good.

Hope for a place in the Carabao Cup final in March were dashed in the midweek as Liverpool brutally overturned a first-leg defeat to go through. FA Cup progression was halted at the weekend by Aston Villa, leaving the Europa League as the club's last chance to bet everything on silverware this season.

The club have thrown their lot in with Ange Postecoglou, continuing to back him through the January transfer window amid morale-sapping results. The pressure on Postecoglou remains from some supporters and pundits, but fingers have pointed elsewhere too, such as at injuries, transfer activity, and club chairman Daniel Levy.

Some football.london readers say it is better to endure the rough times, with light on the horizon regarding those injuries. Reader Ragmopp says: "Anyone who thinks we're going to get someone better in that role right now, with Levy in charge, is the one who is completely deluded. With proper support and better luck around injuries, Spurs would be top half of the table, at least.

"Dump Levy and give him a season of full support. Sack him only after that happens. Ange is the best thing to happen to this club since Poch, but I'm sure the same sad sacks were calling for his head before Levy as well…"

Marlon1 writes: "I can literally hear the Ange Out brigade frothing at the mouth with vindication! I really hope this match didn’t convert anyone.

"The squad consisted of a front 3 with 2 teenagers and a captain who’s forgotten how to play football, a patched up defence and NOTHING off the bench. Low in confidence, low on energy, low on belief and away from home against a top side (who we actually destroyed with our full team. Twice!!)

"Look, do you really think a better situation is to let Ryan Mason take charge when all our players come back from injury and just have two competitions to focus on (Europa league is very winnable)? Of course it’s not! Nor would I want another manager to reap those rewards! That’s utterly ridiculous and also very unfair! I personally hope Ange can get the results in time, starting with Utd, to change peoples' perception of him, the chance to prove them wrong!"

Sonofason says: "What difference does it make, is a new manager going to un-injure a dozen senior players? Is he going to find a way to get Levy to change his ways? 2 starters today have been with the club less than a week, because Levy waited until February to address the injury crisis. Honey, missing out is good, the last thing this club needs is more games!"

Ric4ever writes: "Whilst sharing the hurt & frustration, this is not the time to panic. We need cool heads & strong nerves to save the day. If we are to avoid the boredom & doldrums of the previous 5 years then the only realistic way is Ange! When the troops are back we can still have a decent close to the season. The potential is still enormous - hopefully DL is with us & will shell out during the summer."

Commenter Harry Hotspur is less rosy on Ange's defence of his squad: "I certainly sympathise with the players. However, it will take at least a month before most of the injured brigade are back and match fit, in which time Kulusevski and co. will still have to carry on. Ange’s argument would carry a lot more weight if we hadn’t drawn at Leicester and lost at Palace and Brighton, for example, with virtually full strength sides. Methinks he doth protesteth too much, mate."

Petemunsey says: "Every club has injuries, Villa almost as many as us. And yet they make due. It’s tiresome that this is his one defence always. Never admits to getting it wrong tactically."

Have your say! If you were the Spurs boss, would you go all-out for the Europa League, or try for the strongest finish to the Premier League that you could? Comment below, and join in on the conversation.
