‘Don’t put words in my mouth’ – Faye Carruthers lifts lid on spiky interview with Tottenham boss Ange Postecoglou

Sports broadcaster Faye Carruthers believes Ange Postecoglou is getting ‘really spiky and a little bit disrespectful to as pressure mounts on the Tottenham boss.

Postecoglou is under immense เว็บพนันออนไลน์ UFABET สมัครง่าย โปรโมชั่นมากมาย pressure at Spurs following a dismal run which has seen the north London club slip to 12th in the Premier League, 12 points outside the Champions League places.

Tottenham emerged as surprise title contenders at the start of last season but have suffere a major dip since then and lost half of their Premier League games so far this season.

Spurs’ latest defeat came at the hands of in-form Newcastle United on Saturday and Postecoglou gave a series of bizarre interviews after the 2-1 loss.

In one interview with the Australian use a version of the phrase ‘if all things were equal’ nine times.

‘On the balance of play – any balance you want – with all things being equal, we would have won,’ the former Celtic manager said.

‘We were outstanding. I couldn’t be prouder of the players. I couldn’t ask any more. It is a game that we would have won if all things were equal.

‘If all things were equal and balance, we would have won. Things weren’t equal and balanced.’

Carruthers believes Postecoglou is ‘starting to unravel’ in front of the media and has spoken out on her awkward exchange with the Tottenham boss in which he accused her of ‘putting words in his mouth’.

‘He’s started to unravel a bit in terms of his post-match [interviews],’ she told ex-Arsenal and England goalkeeper David Seaman on the Seaman Says, sponsore.

‘Pre-match [before the Nottingham Forest game], I had a lovely chat with him and he’s so polite and really engaging, which everybody says. He was really lovely, very respectful, very nice.

But post-match, it started fine but he accused me of putting words in his mouth, which I hadn’t. I’d just interpreted what he’d said in terms of the energy levels.

‘It’s really difficult, I’m trying to give him an opportunity to explain the positives because actually I thought they’d playe really well against Forest.

‘It was a much tighter game and they played better than they had done for a while. But ultimately they lost.

‘The post-match interviews that he gave to more than one outlet after the game against Newcastle were really spiky and a little bit disrespectful to reporters, which he has on other occasions before as well.
