After the fiasco in the Premier League match, London's Tottenham club fired coach Andre Villas-Boas.

In Sunday's English championship match, the Spurs players were humiliated at home by Liverpool with a score of 0-5.

Talk of a possible dismissal of the Portuguese began last month when the team was humiliated by Manchester City, conceding 6 goals to Hugo Lloris' goal.

This summer, the capital club spent about 120 million euros on new players, so the club's management was hoping for better results and improved play.

Despite advancing from the UEFA Europa League group stage without stumbling, the performance in the Premier League is not satisfactory - at the moment, Tottenham is in 7th place in the table with 27 points.

The 36-year-old coach took over the Spurs in the summer of 2012 and led the team for 80 matches.

Last season, A. Villas-Boas led Tottenham to 5th place in the Premier League.
