Nine days after Bilbao, one week on from the trophy parade with euphoria subsiding, and still there is no clarity from the Tottenham boardroom about the future of Ange Postecoglou.
He has two more years on his contract, but the feeling is growing that no news is bad news for the Australian.
Chairman Daniel Levy is taking his time to consider his options. Some close to Levy expected him to relent and stand by Postecoglou after he delivered Spurs the Europa League, a first major trophy for 17 years and the first in Europe since 1984.
