Tottenham Hotspur manager Ange Postecoglou is under intense pressure following his team's 3-2 defeat against Everton, a result that marks the seventh loss in their last ten Premier League matches. This performance came at a time when Everton, under the management of David Moyes, was desperate for a win, and they took full advantage of Spurs' vulnerabilities. The phrase "Dr Tottenham" has resurfaced as fans and pundits alike lament the propensity of Tottenham to revive the fortunes of struggling teams.

The match saw Everton come out with renewed vigor, scoring three goals in the first half, a stark contrast to their previous struggles where they had failed to score in nine of their last eleven league games. Striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin, who had been in a scoring drought, netted the opener, marking his first league goal in over a year. Tottenham's defense was severely criticized for being unable to contain Everton's attack, leading to a tumultuous atmosphere among traveling Spurs fans who expressed their dissatisfaction vocally.

Postecoglou's tactical changes, including a shift to a three-man defense, backfired spectacularly, leaving the team exposed. Despite two late goals from Dejan Kulusevski and Richarlison which made the scoreline appear closer, the overall display was deemed unacceptable. As Spurs sit 15th in the league, only four points ahead of Everton, questions are being raised about the manager's future and his ability to turn the situation around. With upcoming matches against Hoffenheim in the Europa League and a crucial Premier League clash against Leicester City, the stakes are high for Postecoglou and his squad as they look to regain form and confidence.
