Spurs must now bin "future captain" who's worth more than Bissouma

The 2024/25 season will likely serve as a more accurate measure of Ange Postecoglou and his long-term prospects as the manager of Tottenham Hotspur. The current campaign has been a winding road with several surprises, and the balmy days of Postecoglou's early-season exploits now seem a long, long way in the distance. Saying that, Tottenham are fifth in the Premier League heading into the final games of the term, just three points behind Aston Villa in the top four (with a game in hand), and have matched last year's 60-point finish with six matches to spare, almost certain to qualify for European football in some form.
