Here is an excerpt from Jack Pitt-Brooke's article in The Athletic. It is well worth a read.
The fallout from defeat at Newcastle has only served to strengthen the positions of most Spurs fans when it comes to Ange Postecoglou

You can get a sense of where this might end up. Many or even most Spurs fans proudly inside the tent, in communion with their leader and one another, convinced of the rightness of his message and his methods. Some fans will prefer to station themselves outside the tent and plead with those inside it to make more of an accommodation with the real world. This distinction, inside or out, does not leave much room for fans who might consider themselves Ange-agnostic or Ange-ambivalent. But that is the way of the world.
Maybe it was inevitable that it would come to this. English football has a strange relationship with foreign managers who arrive here with a clear set of ideas. We always tell them that theories and philosophies are all well and good but that the ultimate idea must always be to simply Win Football Matches. And that the way to do this is with pragmatic common sense. (Only in this country do we think that the way to implement an idea is to water it down, but then English anti-intellectualism has very deep roots.)
It was like this when Guardiola arrived here in 2016, was berated for saying that he was not a “coach for tackles”, before going on to win five Premier League titles in his first seven seasons. It was the same for Marcelo Bielsa when he took over at
Leeds United in 2018, before winning the Championship and then guiding Leeds to a ninth-place Premier League finish, their best for a generation. Neither man diluted his approach in order for it to work. Neither decided to meet the English media halfway. Had they done so, defending deep, keeping it tight, no-nonsense common sense football, it is hard to imagine that they would have had the same success.
