Spurs boss Ange Postecoglou hopes Europa League triumph will be a turning point for the club.
Spurs will face Manchester United in this season’s Europa League final on Wednesday, May 21, and have the chance to win their first trophy in 17 years and their first European trophy since 1984.
Asked what it means to win สมัครสมาชิก UFABET วันนี้ รับเครดิตฟรีทุกวัน trophies with Spurs, the Australian said: “For me it’s good. It’s another trophy I can look back on when I’m older. But more importantly for the club, I always say it’s the impact it has on people that really affects you.”
“A lot of the successes I’ve had are very important. Yokohama hasn’t won a title in 14 years, Australia hasn’t won a continental title, Brisbane hasn’t won a title.”
“South Melbourne, my first job, hasn’t won a trophy in seven years. Celtic won a trophy in one year. But for Scotland, it’s been a long time. They have to fight to get back the dominance they’ve had for so long.”
“When you look back at the history behind this club over the last 20 years, it feels like a turning point in the way people perceive this club and the way this club perceives itself, which I think is the biggest thing.”
“Until you do something, no matter what you do, people will say you’ve never won anything. In our game, and in life in general, that’s the most important thing when people evaluate where you are.”
Postecoglou was asked about the narrative that United tend to win finals while Tottenham lose them.
Spurs lost the 2019 Champions League final and the League Cup final two years later while United won the League Cup in 2023 and the FA Cup last season.
