Ange Postecoglou’s admission about Tottenham’s mistakes last summer
In his last press conference of the season on Sunday, the Tottenham head coach made a very interesting admission about the club’s preparations ahead of last season.
Ange Postecoglou confessed that Spurs made mistakes with the way they approached last pre-season and he vowed to learn from his mistakes and put things right this summer.
The Australian was presumably referring to the workload on the players, but it remains to be seen if he will get an opportunity to rectify his errors, with Postecoglou’s future at Tottenham still up in the air.
