Tottenham head coach Ange Postecoglou has doubled down on his comments stating he always wins a trophy in his second season.
The Australian caught the attention of the media last week after claiming he is a serial winner and has won in his second campaign in charge at every club he has managed.
Postecoglou won the Australian title with both South Melbourne and Brisbane Roar, and the Japanese league with Yokohama F Marinos.
He also won the Asian Cup two years as Australia manager, and the Scottish championship twice with Celtic.
But after a second loss in four in the Premier League in 2024-25, the Spurs boss has been questioned about whether he and his team have what it takes to end the club’s trophy drought.
Speaking in his press conference, he said: “I’ll correct myself – I don’t usually win things, I always win things in my second year. Nothing’s changed.
“I’ve just said something that’s true and it seems it’s upset a lot of people for some reason!”😬
Ange Postecoglou doesn’t understand the negative reaction to his trophy comment after the north London derby🧐

“It’s amazing, isn’t it? I just stated a fact. Am I supposed to just lie or just say it never happened?
“But do you really think it’s me sort of boasting?
“It’s just confusing to me that people are making a big deal out of something. I’m not sure how I’m supposed to answer something that is true.
“I’ve just said something that’s true, and it seems like it’s upset a lot of people for some reason.”
Tottenham have not won a trophy since the League Cup in 2008, but have a good chance of ending their run in both domestic cup competitions as well as the Europa League this season.
But after losing a third home North London derby on Sunday, many pundits, journalists and fans are doubting whether Postecoglou can keep his run going in England.
