Tottenham have sacked interim manager Cristian Stellini before the Premier League showdown vs Liverpool after pressure on him increased after a jaw-dropping defeat against Newcastle.
Stellini was only appointed to the top job in north London last month after Antonio Conte was sacked after Tottenham were eliminated from the Champions League and FA Cup in quick succession. But despite a bright start in his temporary position, the chaos has ultimately continued.
Under his stewardship, Tottenham defeated surprise package Brighton and drew with relegation-threatened Everton in what was Stellini's first game. However, support for the Italian and his credentials in the Tottenham dugout rapidly decreased after back-to-back reverses to Bournemouth and high-flying Newcastle.
