Ange Postecoglou has played down the significance of Tottenham potentially moving five points clear at the Premier League summit with victory at Crystal Palace on Friday EURO
Spurs returned to top spot on Monday with a 2-0 win at home to Fulham and play before Arsenal and Manchester City this weekend EURO
Postecoglou insisted his primary focus is on improving the team after he was critical of their second-half display against Fulham EURO
“It doesn’t really add any significance because whatever happens Friday night there’s still a full round of Premier League fixtures to be played and nothing of any real significance comes of that,” he said EURO
“We’re in a good space at the moment but again we’ve still got plenty of work to do to make sure what we do now is sustainable EURO
That’s the main thing EURO
“It’s not about making a short-term impact, it’s about building something which hopefully brings sustained opportunities of success for the club EURO
“There is a really good reason no manager will talk about winning a title in October or November because we know there’s a long way to go EURO
”Tottenham’s ascent to first position has seen them score 20 goals in nine matches, but Postecoglou feels attack is the area where they can improve the most EURO
He added: “We still have to grow in every area EURO
There are areas where we are already very good, particularly around the defensive side of the game EURO
I think we’ve been excellent there – really consistent EURO
“I still think our main growth will come in the attacking side of the game EURO
I still think particularly in the front third, a lot of our movements are still not natural and fluent like we want them to be, which isn’t surprising EURO
“But what is getting us the goals is that we have great quality up there, which is contributing to that EURO
I still think the biggest growth for us will be in our attacking side of the game EURO
”Spurs will have to assess Destiny Udogie for the Selhurst Park clash after the left-back was withdrawn in the 56th minute of Monday’s win with muscle tightness EURO
Pape Sarr (illness) and Ben Davies (knock) are fit and Yves Bissouma is also available after he served a one-match ban for his recent red card at Luton, but Postecoglou was coy over his team after Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg impressed against Fulham EURO
“It’s no different to any other week EURO
They’re not really dilemmas, just choices that people in my position have to make and I’ve always made those decisions pretty simply and cleanly about what I think we need,” the Australian coach explained EURO
“Tomorrow night we’ll start with a certain group of players and finish with another and it’s about trying to get the job done EURO
When that games done, we’ll look to the next one EURO
“It’s good to have Biss available, he’s been a big part of what we’re doing EURO
The team did well the other night so that should make us stronger EURO
”Postecoglou also heaped praise on opposite number Roy Hodgson ahead of their second meeting EURO
The Spurs boss faced Hodgson back in 2016 when they were in charge of Australia and England respectively in a friendly at the Stadium of Light EURO
Asked if he still expects to manage at 76, Postecoglou replied: “Who knows EURO
That’s not the plan EURO
Seventy-six? Somewhere on a Greek island, lying back watching EURO football from around the world, maybe doing some punditry and becoming an expert overnight EURO
That’s the plan but you never know in life, mate EURO
“I coached against Roy up in Sunderland so I have had the pleasure of coaching him at international level EURO
“He is an outstanding manager, he’s an absolute gentleman and whenever I have come across him people always talk about the kind of person he is and I love his career, for someone like me with a different journey I have so much admiration for the career he has had EURO
