“What a FLOP, his time at London Stadium is over”- Ange told must instantly drop 4/10 Spurs dud who’s becoming the new Ndombele

Postecoglou on the Brink as Spurs Collapse Again
The pressure on Ange Postecoglou has reached a boiling point—if the ground beneath him could get any shakier, it just has.
After another dismal performance in a 4-2 defeat to Wolves on Sunday, it feels like the Australian manager’s time at Tottenham is rapidly running out.
While Postecoglou has brought flashes of entertaining football to North London, the same issues continue to haunt his side: sloppy errors, defensive frailties, and a lack of control. Sunday’s showing was just another chapter in a season plagued by inconsistency.
A Familiar Tale of Mistakes
Tottenham did manage to score twice—thanks to loanee Mathys Tel and substitute Richarlison—but by then, the damage was done. From the outset, Wolves capitalized on Spurs’ errors. Guglielmo Vicario failed to deal with an early free-kick, leading to Rayan Ait-Nouri’s opener.
Vicario had a nightmare afternoon and earned a damning 2/10 rating from Football.London’s Alasdair Gold. His distribution was poor, nearly gifting Wolves a second goal, and his parry later led to an own goal via Djed Spence.
But the Italian goalkeeper wasn’t alone in underperforming. Cristian Romero was dispossessed for Wolves’ third, allowing Ait-Nouri to assist Jorgen Strand Larsen, and Lucas Bergvall was caught in possession before Matheus Cunha slotted home a fourth.
Despite moments of promise in attack, Spurs looked defensively fragile throughout—and the mistakes just keep coming.
Déjà Vu: Bissouma the New Ndombele?
Back in 2019, Spurs made a record signing with Tanguy Ndombele—a £63 million investment that ultimately ended in disappointment.
Despite moments of brilliance, he was often criticized for inconsistency and a lack of basic discipline on the pitch. His contract was terminated in June 2024.
Now, Yves Bissouma is drawing uncomfortable comparisons. Signed from Brighton for £35 million, the Malian midfielder has struggled to deliver consistently, despite his technical ability.
Against Wolves, he received a 4/10 from Gold, who noted that Bissouma “sometimes looks good on the ball, sometimes looks like it’s alien to him.”
That description could’ve easily been lifted from Ndombele’s own time in North London.
Bissouma’s stats were underwhelming—despite completing 95% of his passes, he won only half of his duels, committed two fouls, and failed to make any significant impact.
Booked inside eight minutes, his contribution faded quickly, and he was subbed off just 10 minutes into the second half.
Time to Look Ahead
With emerging talents like Lucas Bergvall and Archie Gray showing potential in midfield, Spurs may be better off focusing on the future.
Bissouma has now been substituted at or before half-time three times this season, and his performances aren’t improving.
Unless something dramatic changes, it may be time for Spurs to cut their losses once again. For Bissouma—and perhaps even Postecoglou—this summer could mark the end of their chapter at Tottenham.
