“Shameful” Tottenham boss adds more flame to West Ham horrific display Amid reveal no longer PL Class

“Shameful” Tottenham boss adds more flame to West Ham horrific display Amid reveal no longer PL Class.

West Ham are reeling after a dismal performance against Tottenham Hotspur.

The Hammers have typically been a formidable opponent for Spurs in recent years.

Given the significance of this fixture for both fanbases, passion and competitiveness were expected.

Things began promisingly for Julen Lopetegui’s side when Mohammed Kudus gave them the lead after 18 minutes.

However, what followed was simply unacceptable.

Tottenham equalized before halftime, deservedly so, but West Ham were still in a decent position to secure a positive result on the road.

Postecoglou’s remarks about West Ham are disgraceful
The second half, however, was a disaster, as West Ham conceded three goals in eight minutes.

It could have been four, but Tottenham captain Son Heung-min hit the inside of the post, keeping the scoreline down.

West Ham had no hope of getting back into the game, and Kudus sealed their fate when he “floored” three Tottenham players, leading to his sending off.

Former referee Mike Dean later stated that Kudus is facing a six-game ban for the incident.

This crushing result and dismal display against their fierce Premier League rivals have ramped up the pressure on Lopetegui.

Meanwhile, Ange Postecoglou, who continued with his contentious high defensive line, now faces less scrutiny.

London derbies between West Ham and Tottenham are usually tightly contested.

When they aren’t, something is clearly wrong.

Spurs boss rubs salt in West Ham’s wounds
What Spurs boss Postecoglou said to the club’s media after the game was simply disgraceful.

Typically, managers offer respectful comments about the opposing team before and after a match.

They don’t usually gloat after a victory.

However, Postecoglou’s post-match comments should be played back to Lopetegui and his squad, because if they don’t inspire a reaction to restore pride, nothing will.

Postecoglou claimed his team had simply “blown West Ham away.”

He dismissed West Ham’s efforts as “a bit of an arm wrestle in the first half.”

He also added that the final score should have been 5 or 6-1 to Spurs.

West Ham should be ashamed
“I thought the boys were good today,” Postecoglou told Spurs’ media.

“They (West Ham) gave us a bit of a battle in the first half – they’re tough to play against due to their physicality. We conceded a disappointing goal, but the response was strong…

“In the second half, we were really dominant, showing all the aspects of our game that we needed to…

“We knew if we stepped it up, we could win. We scored the goals, and probably could have had a few more. Sometimes we haven’t taken advantage of those moments, but today we blew them away.”
