After the peel at home against Ipswich before the international break, Spurs supporters threw themselves over the keyboard and shared messages such as “Tottenham are not going anywhere with Postecoglou as coach”. On Saturday, the same Postecoglou led the club to a 4-0 victory over Manchester City at Eithad. Talk about answers from the Australian coach!
Although this result against City will lift the supporters, it is important to see it in context. Spurs have shown moments of brilliance this season, but inconsistency has often derailed momentum. This victory serves as a reminder of their potential.

Postecoglou’s philosophy of possession-based football, high pressure and positional fluidity, has transformed Spurs into a team capable of dictating games even against the best.
What stood out against City was not only the result, but the way it was achieved.
Spurs supporters have every reason to be optimistic. With leaders like Son Heung-min and Dejan Kulusevski driving the attack and new talents like Pape Matar Sarr showing their worth in midfield, the future looks bright.
This performance against City also serves as a preview of what Tottenham are capable of producing in high-pressure games. With the Carabao Cup quarter-final against Man United on December 19 fast approaching, Spurs have every reason to believe that they can secure victory, surge on, book a place in the final and take a significant step towards lifting their first trophy since 2008.

Such a performance would not only end their 16-year silver drought, but secure Postecoglou’s position and strengthen the belief that the former Celtic boss is building a team capable of delivering on the biggest stages.
