“I am at the start of pre-season and am the Tottenham manager, so I have got nothing else but trying to bring success to this football club,” Postecoglou told Sky Sports News. “Until I do that, there is no point in me thinking about anything else. I had a nap this afternoon, so I have no idea what is going on .”

“We won the Asian Cup and qualified for the World Cup, but with all these things there is always a natural end, and I thought it was a natural end for me there. I loved coaching the national team.
