Daniel Levy says Tottenham appointed Ange Postecoglou due to this reason
In a recent conversation with representatives of Spurs’ key supporter groups regarding the Fan Advisory Board, Daniel Levy shed light on the reasoning behind the appointment of Ange Postecoglou as Tottenham Hotspur’s new head coach.
Levy’s aim is to steer the club back to its roots of playing entertaining and attacking football, a philosophy deeply ingrained in the club’s history. Postecoglou has been trusted as the man to do just that.
During the video call, Levy expressed his desire to provide an enjoyable and entertaining experience for the fans, ensuring that every match at Tottenham is an occasion to cherish. He emphasized the importance of appointing a coach who shared this vision.
Postecoglou’s track record at Celtic, where he showcased an unwavering commitment to attacking football, made him the ideal candidate to bring back the exhilaration that the fans have been craving.
Furthermore, Levy emphasized the significance of bridging the gap between the club’s esteemed academy and the first team. Tottenham’s academy has long been hailed as one of the finest in the country, nurturing young talents who have gone on to shine on the grandest stages of football.
Postecoglou’s appointment reflects Levy’s commitment to cultivating and promoting homegrown talents, ensuring a seamless transition from the academy to the senior squad.
“We made a conscious decision that we wanted a coach who would understand what we really wanted as a Club, which was to play attacking football, to enable everyone to enjoy coming to a match and be entertained, and also someone who understood the importance of the Academy”
Postecoglou’s tactical approach perfectly aligns with Tottenham’s aspirations. Renowned for his preference for an attacking 4-3-3 system, the Australian manager encourages expansive play, with full-backs pushing forward to join the midfield in the attacking phase.
Levy’s decision to appoint Postecoglou represents a bold step towards rejuvenating Tottenham’s identity on the pitch. It demonstrates a commitment to an attractive and entertaining style of play that captures the essence of the club’s heritage.
