Jamie Carragher believes should sack Ange Postecoglou if Tottenham are dumped out of the Europa League.

The former Liverpool defender turned pundit also feels chairman Daniel Levy will already have candidates lined up as he dangles the axe over the Aussie boss.

The ex-Celtic gaffer needs to guide his Spurs team to a win away to Eintracht Frankfurt on Thursday night following a 1-1 draw in London last week.

It represents the Premier League club's last chance of silverware in what has been a torrid season at White Hart Lane.

The club sit 15th in the table and were thumped by Liverpool in the Carabao Cup semi-finals.

Ange also revealed there is a 'leak' in the dressing room as the walls close in for the under-pressure manager.

And now, speaking on the Overlap US, Jamie Carragher thinks defeat in Germany will be the final curtain call for Ange.

"In our role I am always quite critical of the players or if something goes wrong I always look at the players first," he said.

"I think a manager can be isolated at times and a lot of the focus is always on him, so I don't really like to be critical of manages.

"These guys have to come out three four times a week and get asked questions an getting put on the spot and sometimes players can be in the shadows if you like a little bit.

"But we can't shy away from the fact that what we have seen from Tottenham this season, even though they have had injury problems, is not acceptable.

"It is not just this season, last season the second half of last season we really poor.

So this has being going on for almost 18 months, really, in terms of poor results for Tottenham.

"I just feel if they go out you are not gaining anything by keeping the manger in-situ if you are not going to keep him next season.

"Because you have go to start making plans for next season.

What players do you want to come in, what players do you want to go out.

"I know director of football are heavily involved in that now as well but I have got no doubt in my mind Daniel Levy will have been looking and possibly speaking to potential candidates for next season, because if he isn't he is not doing his job properly.

If you are a manager you would be disappointed by that but you can't complain, you know the price on the ticket.

"And when you perform as badly as Spurs have you have got to accept that.

It is just no where near good enough.

"His press conferences are entertaining.

The last one was about there being a leak in the team, then I think it was about mobile phones.

"So every week it feels like there is something - listen it must be hard when you are in that situation as a manager when the results are not going well.

"He's probably not sleeping, he's stressed and he is getting poked in the press conferences and he is reacting."

Carragher then had his say on who would suit the Spurs job the most - and it wasn't a return for frontrunner Mauricio Pochettino.

"I think it will be really interesting who they go for because a lot of the talk has been around the Bournemouth manager Iraola," he added.
