Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou expressed his sympathy for Erik ten Hag, who was recently sacked as Manchester United manager. Postecoglou himself has faced criticism due to Tottenham’s poor away form, but he remains optimistic after their recent victory over United.
Reflecting on the challenges of managing a club with high expectations, Postecoglou acknowledged the pressure that comes with the job. He commented on the increasing difficulty of leading a team in today’s football landscape, where success is demanded instantly.
Looking ahead to Tottenham’s Carabao Cup match against Manchester City, Postecoglou emphasized the importance of sticking to their principles and performance regardless of external pressures. He believes in the process and trusts that success will come with time.
Focus on the Champions
Despite the distraction of Ten Hag’s dismissal, Postecoglou is determined to bounce back from Tottenham’s recent defeat to Crystal Palace. The upcoming match against Pep Guardiola’s side presents a tough challenge, but Postecoglou is confident in his team’s ability to deliver.
Postecoglou stressed the importance of consistency and commitment to their playing style, rather than focusing on immediate reactions or redemption. He believes that staying true to their principles will lead to long-term success.
