Ange Postecoglou looks back at his 50 Premier League games in charge of Tottenham.
-TIMESTAMPS-
00:00 - Intro.
00:13 - Nine games leading to Christmas: for us it's a significant period, the league where we need to improve. The Europa league and the carabao cup. We could set ourselves up for next year.
01:16 - Your Christmas?: It will be a joyous occasion that needs to be celebrated. If we're 10th I might not be happy.
01:42 - Do you look at the table?: I don't look at in terms of progress. If we beat Ipswich we could be third. One game does not dictate my life.
02:48 - Can other clubs win with Pep still in charge: It's a great challenge. I've said in the past, the massive targets. It's up to everyone else to bridge the gap.
03:54 - Wanting him to leave?: I look at him the other way, look if you knock him off? I'd rather that chance than missing the opportunity.
04:55 - Fix consistency and approach: I'm always reflecting. I don't think I'd have lasted this long. The games we've played we've struggled to find solutions.
06:33 - David Coote: no lost in trust. I'm not across the details but like Bentancur he's made some mistakes. He's a human being, we should care for his welfare.
07:50 - Romero injured before Argentina?: He hasn't been fully fit for 2/3 weeks. He soldiered through but when he went away he knew he needed a break.
08:46 - Injury: The knock on his toe and a tight hamstring. We're being careful with him.
09:15 - Temptation to tell him not to go to Argentina: There's always a line. You have to trust his judgement. He didn't make it any worse.
10:03 - Has much changed in protocol?: Personnel. We've been hit in the same areas. Attacking area we've had significant injuries. We've addressed things in the off season.
11:17 - Can't ease off in training?: You can but I feel it would take away from what we're trying to create here. You get more robust in the journey.
12:05 - Lloris and the watch: everyone's got their own truths. Hugo's might be different to Levy's. If it was a positive outcome you'd say you were inspired.
13:41 - 50 league game in charge: You've got to look at the totality of those 50 games. Your question would have been different if we'd won last week. People forget our starting point. I took over a club that finished 8th.
15:27 - First 2/3 months set standard too high?: what was I supposed to do? Start crap? We were starting on a wave.
