Fans made their feelings clear towards the players and manager Ange Postecoglou at Stamford Bridge.

And now Levy is the focus of supporters’ ire once again, with thousands taking to the streets outside the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in protest.

Many held banners demanding Levy leave the club, with calls for change ringing out.

Fans chanted “We want Levy out!” and “Daniel Levy, get out of our club!”

It is the latest in a series of protests against Levy and his running of the club.

He is often targeted with accusations that he is more concerned with the commercial success of the club than glory on the pitch.

But he has dismissed such complaints, instead emphasising the importance of sustainability.

He said: “Since opening our new stadium in April 2019, we have invested over £700million net in player acquisitions.

“Recruitment remains a key focus, and we must ensure that we make smart purchases within our financial means.

“I often read calls for us to spend more, given that we are ranked as the ninth richest club in the world.

“However, a closer examination of today’s financial figures reveals that such spending must be sustainable in the long term and within our operating revenues.”
