Tottenham endured their worst top-flight finish since 1976/77 last season, coming 17th before salvaging the campaign by winning the Europa League to qualify for the Champions League. That success - which ended Tottenham's 17-year trophy drought - was not enough to spare boss Ange Postecoglou from Levy's wrath as the Australian was sacked after two turbulent seasons in charge. Levy hired Thomas Frank from Brentford to replace Postecoglou in the last significant decision of his reign.
Quite frankly, West Ham are lucky Bowen is not pushing to leave. Nobody could blame the captain were he to decide enough is enough after years of atrocious recruitment and poor appointments from the people at the top. This slump has been a long time coming. Some fans are fuming but a lot have grown apathetic. Mass walkouts feel very particular to the London Stadium.
