“Mate, it doesn’t rock my world. It doesn’t consume me. I am here, I am passionate about what we’re doing. I was brought in to change the way the club plays, rejuvenate the squad and bring success. I am focused on that and that is what I’ll keep doing.”
While Spurs’ main emphasis throughout the following 2 weeks is a Europa League quarter-final with Eintracht Frankfurt, Postecoglou have to browse organization components with Chelsea, Southampton and Wolves in the very same duration.
