Ange Postecoglou sends heartfelt message to fans as pre-season kicks off
Ange Postecoglou: ‘I will do things my way at Tottenham to achieve success’
Ange Postecoglou, a Greek-born Melbourne native who recently became the first Australian manager of a Premier League side, is hoping to end Tottenham Hotspur’s protracted trophy drought by making some difficult choices.
After agreeing to a four-year contract in June of this year, Mr. Postecoglou has been named the team’s new manager at Tottenham Hotspur FC in London, England.
The Advertiser claims that with Postecoglou in charge, the team will be rebuilt.
Addressing fans he boldly said:
“I will do things my way to achieve big success,” Postecoglou said in his first Spurs press conference in Enfield, north London, on Monday.
“The more people buy into that the more we will get there quicker because when there is resistance it just slows down the whole process but what I will make clear is that it won’t change the process.”
The coach further added the process might “derail” a bit but hopes it will lead to lasting change that is promising.
The 57-year-old coach replaced Antonio Conte, who left Spurs on March 27. He was a longtime defender in 193 games for South Melbourne Hellas and played four games for the Australia national team in the late 1980s.
