ANGE POSTECOGLOU has urged his players to embrace the opportunity to end Tottenham’s agonising wait for a trophy and says the chance to be the man to deliver silverware was the main reason he took the job.
Spurs face Championship side Coventry in the Carabao Cup third-round tonight, aiming for a first trophy since they won the competition in 2008.
Postecoglou made headlines after Sunday’s north London derby defeat by Arsenal when he insisted “I always win things in my second year” and said yesterday he is “happy to be judged against that standard” this season.
Speaking ahead of the visit to Coventry, Postecoglou urged his players to face up to the club’s 16-year trophy drought and not be burdened by history.
