Tottenham Hotspur's manager, Ange Postecoglou, is facing a wave of criticism and trolling following his team's damaging loss to West Ham.

Unwanted Records Broken

In the game, Spurs surrendered a first-half lead and ended up losing 2-1, breaking three unwanted records in the process.

Cristian Romero's goal was canceled out by Jarrod Bowen, and James Ward-Prowse sealed the victory for the Hammers.

16 Points Lost from Winning Positions

With this defeat, Tottenham has now dropped 16 points from winning positions this season, more than any other team in the Premier League.

On social media, fans were quick to react to this statistic, with one using the hashtag "#Spursy" to describe their disappointment.

Lord Sugar Takes a Jab

Former Spurs owner Lord Sugar also joined in the criticism, making a brutal joke about Postecoglou's inability to hold a lead.

Two Unwanted Feats

Furthermore, Tottenham made Premier League history by losing to their London rivals in two consecutive matches.

They are the first team to lose three consecutive home matches after going 1-0 up, following their previous defeats to Chelsea and Aston Villa.

In addition, they are also the first team to fail to win five consecutive matches after going 1-0 up in each game.

Blow to Title Hopes

This recent dip in form has dealt a blow to Spurs' title hopes after a strong start to the season.

Postecoglou's side was unbeaten and sitting at the top of the table by the end of October.

In his first few months as manager, Postecoglou had also won the Manager of the Month award for August, September, and October, becoming the first boss to achieve this feat.

Crucial Clash with Newcastle

Postecoglou now faces a crucial game against Newcastle at home on Sunday as he aims to turn Spurs' season around.

A defeat in this match could see Tottenham fall as low as ninth in the standings, trailing the league leaders by 12 points.
