Son Heung-min gave the visitors a surprise lead after 20 minutes at the Emirates Stadium, but the Gunners responded with two goals in four minutes prior to the interval.
Former Arsenal Premier League winner Emmanuel Petit has called on Tottenham Hotspur to sack manager Ange Postecoglou, citing the team’s poor performance under his leadership. Speaking on talkSPORT, Petit expressed his frustration, stating that Tottenham is “going down with every game” and that a change in management is necessary.
Petit, who spent three seasons at Arsenal, believes that the players look “miserable” and that Postecoglou’s tactics are not working. He emphasized that while injuries have played a part in Tottenham’s struggles, the responsibility ultimately lies with the manager.

Postecoglou, who took over the reins at Tottenham last summer, has faced criticism for his team’s defensive vulnerabilities and inability to secure consistent results. Despite some positive performances in cup competitions, Tottenham’s league form has been disappointing, with the club currently sitting in 13th place.
Petit’s comments have sparked a debate among fans and pundits alike, with some agreeing that a change is needed to turn the team’s fortunes around. However, others argue that the squad’s injury crisis has been a significant factor in their poor performances.
Postecoglou is under increasing pressure as Tottenham gets ready for their next game. Whether the club will heed Petit’s advice and make a managerial change remains to be seen.
