Ange Postecoglou’s first season at Tottenham Hotspur is almost complete, and while there’s been some negative moments there has certainly been enough positives to suggest that the Australian coach has Spurs on the right track.
Champions League football seems to be slipping from their grasp, a bitter pill for fans accustomed to European nights under the lights. Yet, amidst the disappointment, there are signs of encouragement, glimpses of a brighter future under the stewardship of manager Ange Postecoglou.
Postecoglou’s debut season at the helm of Spurs has been a rollercoaster ride of highs and lows. However, one statistic stands out like a beacon of hope amidst the turbulence: 63 points earned in his inaugural campaign.
To put this into perspective, it surpasses the 61 points Mikel Arteta accumulated in his first full season at Arsenal. While points alone do not tell the whole story, they signify progress and potential for the Lilywhites.
The Gunners have undergone their own transformation under Arteta, demonstrating the rewards that can be reaped with time and faith in a manager’s philosophy. In Arteta’s first two seasons at Arsenal he finished 8th, Postecoglou looks set to deliver a 5th place finish, at the very least, in his debut Premier League campaign.
One notable aspect of Tottenham Hotspur’s journey under Postecoglou has been their resilience. The team has showcased a remarkable ability to bounce back from adversity, amassing 25 points from losing positions in the Premier League. While the trend of conceding first is a cause for concern, it also underscores the team’s fighting spirit and refusal to capitulate in the face of adversity.
