Ange Postecoglou has been spotted with Scotland fans in Greece as he takes a much-needed break from his Tottenham strain.
It has been a gruelling few months for Tottenham Hotspur, with the team going full throttle across all competitions since the last international break in November.
Now, March has ushered in the final international break of the season, offering a brief pause before the all-important run-in that will determine Spurs’ fate.
Ange Postecoglou is feeling the heat, especially after the latest 2-0 defeat to Fulham on Sunday, a result that marked Tottenham’s 15th loss of the campaign and saw them slip down to 14th in the table.
Ange Postecoglou unwinds in Greece ahead of Nations League clash
With two weeks of respite and no club football, Ange Postecoglou has taken the opportunity to recharge far from the pressures of England.
A photo shared by Tartan Army stalwart John Nicol, as relayed by The Sun, captured the Spurs boss looking relaxed and all smiles ahead of Greece’s crucial Nations League play-off against Steve Clarke’s Scotland on Thursday night.
The Tottenham manager has been granted a few days off and has chosen to spend them with his family while also catching some football matches.
A well-timed break for Tottenham and Postecoglou
Postecoglou undoubtedly needed this break, and the timing could not have been better. The pressure at Spurs has been mounting, and it was clear for all to see after the Fulham loss, where Postecoglou was confronted by a frustrated Tottenham fan, leading Tel and Spence to step in and diffuse the situation.
With crucial Europa League ties looming and the business end of the season set to define his future, Postecoglou needs a clear head if he is to steer Spurs towards silverware and keep his job intact. Hopefully, this time away gives him the reset he needs to return stronger.
