Ange Postecolgou pulled no punches following his side’s north London derby defeat by Tottenham on Sunday, almost insisting that he would be winning a trophy this year.
It hasn’t been an easy start to the season for Spurs, who have lost half of their games so far and have just four points from as many matches to their names.
It’s All Kicking Off! co-hosts Ian Ladyman and Chris Sutton looked at the Australian’s project in north London on the latest episode of the podcast, with a deep dive into how patient the club should be with it.
Though Spurs finished 33 points behind their arch rivals and lost on Sunday, Sutton was keen to defend Tottenham on the back of the game, with the goal proving to be somewhat controversial.

There was however debate over whether Postecoglou could be setting himself up to fail after his near-promise of a trophy, with European action to get underway soon.
Sutton also looked at some of Spurs’ players and how they have performed for the club since joining, with a focus on forward Brennan Johnson.
