Postecoglou says it doesn't enter his headspace - a line Celtic will remember well
Ange Postecoglou returned to Scotland with Spurs - and immediately distanced himself from the England job.
Asked if he’d seen the speculation Postecoglou said: “Mate, I was having a nap this afternoon, so I’ve got no idea! I’m Tottenham manager and I’m determined to bring success to this club, as I have with every other club I have been at. That’s where my focus is totally. We haven’t achieved anything yet, so until we achieve something, my work isn’t done. Five years ago I was in Japan, and now I’m in the Premier League.
Graham Potter and Eddie Howe remain the bookies favourites to replace Southgate but Postecoglou has been ranked as a darkhorse after leading Spurs to a fifth place finish. But he said: “I reckon by the end of it there will probably be 100 on it, so I’m in the top 100, thank you, that’s decent!” “I’ve always moved on when I’ve felt it was the right time, so he’s the best judge of that. He’s done an unbelievable job, ridiculously good in terms of results and performances at major tournaments. The expectations are now really high for England, and he’s created that. But he is in the best place to say that it was time for him, and as managers, a lot of the time our future’s taken out of our own hands. It’s nice when we make the decision sometimes.
