“I usually win in the second season.”

Tottenham boss Enze Postecoglou talked up the title. He was confident. Postecoglou is in his second year at Tottenham. He took over from Celtic last season, and his leadership has exceeded expectations. He quickly transplanted his attacking style of soccer to Spurs, winning the Manager of the Month award three times. But that's not all. Once Postecoglou's style of attacking soccer caught on, Spurs quickly went downhill. They missed out on Champions League qualification. They finished fifth.

This summer, Spurs deepened their posteriori colors. They invested heavily. Spurs, who had been signing mostly for the future, spent the most money in their history on Dominic Solanke. He adds a certainty to the front line that hasn't been there since Harry Kane. Postecoglou was also pleased with the signing.

“I usually win the title in my second season,” he told Sky Sports. The first season is when you set principles and lay the foundations. “Of course, it's not easy in the English Premier League. “Of course, it's not easy in the English Premier League, 토토사이트 but that's the way I've always worked, to build on the first season and go further in the second.

And that's exactly what he did. South Melbourne, Brisbane Roar, and Yokohama Mariners all won premierships in their second seasons. At Celtic, he won the title in his first season.

“We had some good moments last year, but we also had some tough moments,” Postecoglou said. We learned a lot from the tough moments,” he said, adding that ”we are a better prepared team than last year.” He also expressed his expectations for Solanke: “He is a top professional and a good person. “He's adapted well to the squad and has characteristics that match the direction we're going,” he said.

Despite Postecoglou's confidence, Tottenham were held to a 1-1 draw by Leicester City in their opening game, despite dominating the opposition with their attacking football. The formula from last season - play well, score poorly, concede on the counter-attack, and fail to win - has continued from the first game and has many fans worried.

Whether Postecoglou can be the coach he professes to be and end Spurs' 16-year title drought will be one of the main things to watch this season.
