Tottenham Attempt To Grasp Europa League Lifeline To Save Dismal Season
Ange Postecoglou can still make good on his claim that he always wins a trophy in his second season but he must find a way to inspire struggling Tottenham for a shot at Europa League glory. Spurs suffered their 19th defeat of a demoralising Premier League campaign at Anfield on Sunday, crumbling 5-1 as swaggering Liverpool were crowned champions. The predictable loss left them 16th in the table -- on course for their worst league finish since they were relegated from the English top flight in 1977, though they cannot go down. Spurs host Norwegian champions Bodo/Glimt in the first leg of their Europa League semi-final on Thursday with all their eggs now in one basket.
