Conte and Mourinho are so overrated IMO, they have achieved a lot but also rely on spending huge amounts of money on transfers, then they both came to Spurs with their anti football style of play and both got sacked as they did f**k all with the existing squad and we did spend a reasonable amount of money on transfers for Conte and he went backwards. Big Ange plays a very attacking style of football, opposite to anti football that we have been playing for the last 3 years.

Big Ange can get the best out of an average squad, not that Spurs have an average squad, but he won't rely on huge transfer budget, which is probably what Levy found appealing with him.

Also, our Director of Football, who is second in charge to Levy, Scott Munn is also Aussie, worked for Citihads chain of teams starting from Melbourne City (who Mariners just crapped on in the A League Final, lol) then went to China and managed their biggest club, also owned by Citihad (Manchester City and their oil money).

Spurs really have an Aussie flavor atm and some of the poms Spurs fans are saying that's the end of Spurs as those 2 have no European experience.

Hope we kick arse.

Will Ange keep Harry Kane or let him go.you reckon.

It seems like a waste Spurs haven't capitalised on Kane's career so far without a Trophy to show for it.

Maybe he is one of those talented but cursed players that is destined to not win anything.

he's under contract for another year, so I don't see anyone in their right mind letting him go

in a recent interview, he seemed to think his future was at Spurs but money talks, especially when the club is run by the likes of Levy

I tend to think Harry wants to see what Big Ange can do before deciding on his next move

It will actually be up to Harry Kane whether he stays or not. Attitude.
Ange doesn't suffer fools.
Not saying Harry is, but Ange will decide who comes and goes.
It's his way or the highway.

Like I said, no one in their right mind will want to see him leave. Ange likes attacking footy and you cant get more attacking than 'arry

The appointment of Ange to Spurs is the biggest Australian sporting story of the year BY FAR. Believe the hype.
Sadly it is just a basic headline in Australia, but the appointment has had massive social media and mainstream media discussion in Britain and around the world which most Aussies don't give a f**k about, nor would ever see. I've watched many videos this arvo discussing this most important appointment.
Basically, Ange has taken over from some of the supposed best of world managers like Conte and Mourinho who did sweet fa for Spurs.
This is huge and the pressure is now on Ange to perform. A 4 year deal for him suggests that maybe they are willing to give him time, but I doubt that. This is Spurs and this is the EPL.
I have trust that Ange knows the huge task he has taken on. I just hope he gets the full support of Levy and some time to turn the club around and win something.

Next stop - Any other club in Europe for him if he can achieve that.
Despite what happens from now on, Ange is already a legend of Aussie sport in my opinion.

I can't believe this isn't bigger news - my beloved Spurs are an inconsistent top flight team, but they are championship-calibre - having an Aussie coach them is insane.

Good luck, Ange - you'll need it!

Another Aussie onboard the Spurs train



Following the appointment of Ange Postecoglou as our new Head Coach, we can now confirm Ange’s team of coaching staff.

We are delighted to welcome Chris Davies and Mile Jedinak to the Club, and Rob Burch back to the Club, to join up with Ryan Mason and Matt Wells.

Chris, who has previously worked on the coaching staff at Swansea City, Liverpool, Celtic and Leicester City, joins as Senior Assistant Coach.

Ryan Mason has been appointed Assistant Coach, along with our former Academy player and coach Matt Wells, who worked alongside Ryan during his spell in interim charge at the end of last season.

Mile, a former captain of the Australia national team under Ange, also joins the coaching staff as Assistant Coach following a spell as a youth coach and Loan Development Coach at Aston Villa. He previously played in the Premier League for both Villa and Crystal Palace.

A product of our youth set-up and former goalkeeper with us in the early-2000s, Rob returns to the Club as First Team Goalkeeping Coach, having previously served as Academy Goalkeeping Coach until 2019. He has since held coaching roles with the Football Association, Fulham, AFC Bournemouth and Club Brugge.

Our new team of coaching staff will begin work alongside Ange on 1 July.
