Heartbreaking News Ange Postecoglou Head coach of Tottenham Hotspur just passed away at the age 60
Postecoglou says Spurs want to close the ‘big gap’ to Man City and Arsenal.
In fact, some pundits even suggested after the England captain’s departure that the Lilywhites would struggle to even finish in the top half of the table (Sky Sports).
A fifth-place finish would thus have to be considered a successful campaign for Postecoglou, particularly given that it was his first foray into the Premier League and he had to completely revamp Tottenham’s style of play.
Postecoglou wants to compete at the very top
However, the Spurs boss made it clear that he now has his sights firmly set on catching the best sides in the division, remarking that his side will aim to win silverware during the upcoming season.
Postecoglou told Men in Blazers: “We finished fifth, but I don’t look at that. I look at that we finished 20-odd points behind the top team, and that is a big gap. We have got to bridge that gap.
“Arsenal and Manchester City are not going to stand still, they are going to get better, so we have got to improve at a greater rate than them. That is our challenge.
