Ange Postecoglou, Celtic and Tottenham Hotspur seem to be the talk of today as the international break comes to an end and domestic football resumes.

The former Celtic manager is coming under some pressure at Spurs as Postecoglou looks to bring silverware to the success-starved club.

67 Hail Hail has already discussed this morning how Roy Keane sent Spurs a Celtic message about Postecoglou as the Manchester United legend told the Premier League club the Australian is not going to change his playing style.

Celtic fans are well aware of the trophies Postecoglou’s football brought the Hoops as the Australian applies his tried and tested method to the London club.

However, three defeats in their last five games has piled pressure on the former Celtic boss and next up to use the Parkhead club’s name in a message to Postecoglou is Spurs legend, Glen Hoddle.

Hoddle told talkSPORT, “They can create, they’ve got this attacking thought about them, and that’s the incentive that they want to do.

“But you’ve got to be able to defend properly and I think that balance has got to be looked at. I think Ange has got to maybe look at that.

“In other leagues, in Celtic, no disrespect, they’d have had the ball all the time. They’ve got to respect the fact that this is a different league and this will get this will find you out.”

Tottenham boss Ange Postecoglou’s entire trophy record including record-breaking Celtic treble

Ange Postecoglou is Australia’s most successful manager in the country’s entire footballing history. Winning trophies at every club he has been at, the former Celtic boss even brought silverware to The Socceroos.

And as Spurs get twitchy over their gaffer, they probably need reminding that if he is given time, Postecoglou will bring success to their club.

So with that in mind, here is every bit of success Postecoglou has at in every managerial job he has taken:

Postecoglou is in the quarter-final of the English League Cup after beating Man City in the fourth round this month.

The question is will Spurs hold their nerve and allow the former Celtic boss to do his job and lead them to silverware or will they bottle it and pull the trigger too early? Time will tell.
