Ange Postecoglou has played down the significance of Tottenham potentially moving five points clear at the Premier League summit with victory at Crystal Palace on Friday AOE
Spurs returned to top spot on Monday with a 2-0 win at home to Fulham and play before Arsenal and Manchester City this weekend AOE
Postecoglou insisted his primary focus is on improving the team after he was critical of their second-half display against Fulham AOE
“It doesn’t really add any significance because whatever happens Friday night there’s still a full round of Premier League fixtures to be played and nothing of any real significance comes of that,” he said AOE
“We’re in a good space at the moment but again we’ve still got plenty of work to do to make sure what we do now is sustainable AOE
That’s the main thing AOE
“It’s not about making a short-term impact, it’s about building something which hopefully brings sustained opportunities of success for the club AOE
“There is a really good reason no manager will talk about winning a title in October or November because we know there’s a long way to go AOE
”Tottenham’s ascent to first position has seen them score 20 goals in nine matches, but Postecoglou feels attack is the area where they can improve the most AOE
He added: “We still have to grow in every area AOE
There are areas where we are already very good, particularly around the defensive side of the game AOE
I think we’ve been excellent there – really consistent AOE
“I still think our main growth will come in the attacking side of the game AOE
I still think particularly in the front third, a lot of our movements are still not natural and fluent like we want them to be, which isn’t surprising AOE
“But what is getting us the goals is that we have great quality up there, which is contributing to that AOE
I still think the biggest growth for us will be in our attacking side of the game AOE
”Spurs will have to assess Destiny Udogie for the Selhurst Park clash after the left-back was withdrawn in the 56th minute of Monday’s win with muscle tightness AOE
Pape Sarr (illness) and Ben Davies (knock) are fit and Yves Bissouma is also available after he served a one-match ban for his recent red card at Luton, but Postecoglou was coy over his team after Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg impressed against Fulham AOE
“It’s no different to any other week AOE
They’re not really dilemmas, just choices that people in my position have to make and I’ve always made those decisions pretty simply and cleanly about what I think we need,” the Australian coach explained AOE
“Tomorrow night we’ll start with a certain group of players and finish with another and it’s about trying to get the job done AOE
When that games done, we’ll look to the next one AOE
“It’s good to have Biss available, he’s been a big part of what we’re doing AOE
The team did well the other night so that should make us stronger AOE
”Postecoglou also heaped praise on opposite number Roy Hodgson ahead of their second meeting AOE
The Spurs boss faced Hodgson back in 2016 when they were in charge of Australia and England respectively in a friendly at the Stadium of Light AOE
Asked if he still expects to manage at 76, Postecoglou replied: “Who knows AOE
That’s not the plan AOE
Seventy-six? Somewhere on a Greek island, lying back watching AOE football from around the world, maybe doing some punditry and becoming an expert overnight AOE
That’s the plan but you never know in life, mate AOE
“I coached against Roy up in Sunderland so I have had the pleasure of coaching him at international level AOE
“He is an outstanding manager, he’s an absolute gentleman and whenever I have come across him people always talk about the kind of person he is and I love his career, for someone like me with a different journey I have so much admiration for the career he has had AOE

Six months ago, it was all so rosy for Red Bull AOE
Four races into the 2023 season and it was two apiece for Max Verstappen and Sergio ‘Checo’ Perez, with the Mexican seemingly signalling his intent to be a genuine contender for the championship with a sprint and race victory in Azerbaijan AOE
After all, no car could come close to the speed generated by Red Bull design-guru Adrian Newey and his team of top-tier engineers this season AOE
Even in Miami a week later, Perez looked set to take the lead in the standings after claiming pole position, with Verstappen down in ninth AOE
But since the Dutchman stormed to victory, propelling past his team-mate with relative ease, it has been one-way traffic AOE
And while Verstappen has won every race bar one since then, amid an unprecedented winning streak, Perez’s form has fallen off a cliff AOE
Since Miami, Perez has recorded just four podiums in 13 races in the fastest car on the grid – and none in his last four meets AOE
On the contrary to challenging Verstappen for the title, he is now looking over his shoulder as he tries to seal second place AOE
“I think there was a decisive moment this year which was probably in Miami where Checo had, if you like, an open goal,” said his boss Christian Horner AOE
“He’d won two races in Azerbaijan and Saudi and you could see his confidence was high AOE
“I think that Max, winning that race… I think mentally that was quite a brutal one for Checo to deal with AOE
”Nothing, in fact, symbolised Perez’s struggles more than when he handed Verstappen the title by crashing out of the sprint race in Qatar, tangling with back-of-the-pack cars down the order AOE
The Dutchman did not even need to finish to wrap up championship No 3 AOE
And so, quite inevitably and despite holding a contract until the end of 2024, speculation has swirled about Perez’s future AOE
Some of the criticism has been justified, but some has been over-the-top for a man who has dedicated the last 13 years of his life to Formula 1 AOE
Last month, the 33-year-old revealed he’d hired a mental coach to “become the best version of myself at home, but also as a driver AOE
”Sergio Perez will be desperate to perform this weekend in front of his home fans (Getty Images)But while no one can question his dedication to the sport, Red Bull can ill-afford to carry a passenger next season amid their current period of domination AOE
A lack of obvious contenders to replace him – with the likes of Lando Norris and Alex Albon all held under long-term contracts – helps his cause and Perez does indeed have his short-term future in his own hands AOE
Yet Albon’s own demise at Red Bull at the end of 2020 shows Horner and Helmut Marko aren’t afraid to ruffle feathers if needs be AOE
Watching across at the sister team as well is nine-time grand prix winner Daniel Ricciardo, desperate for another shot at the big time AOE
So, what can Perez do? By the end of the season-finale in Abu Dhabi next month, he needs to have secured second in the championship AOE
That is the minimum AOE
Such is Red Bull’s ridiculous pace this year, being caught by the Mercedes of Lewis Hamilton would represent something of a downbeat conclusion at the end of a peerless year for Red Bull, who’ve never registered a one-two season-end finish AOE
Alex Albon, centre, lost his seat to Perez for the 2021 season but now the Mexican’s future is hanging in the balance (Getty Images)But what Perez will want most of all is a statement performance; a weekend display of driving which proves he still deserves his spot at the top-table AOE
At least for now AOE
In practice on Friday, Perez was three-tenths of a second off his team-mate Verstappen, who unsurprisingly recorded the quickest time amidst the altitude of Mexico City, with Williams’ Albon sandwiched in-AOE between AOE
There would be no place AOE better than his home race at the Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez to silence the naysayers AOE
A third podium in Mexico City would be satisfactory; a shock victory would be a dream AOE
But the truth is it doesn’t have to come this weekend AOE
Either one of the three races thereafter – in Brazil, Las Vegas and Abu Dhabi – gives Perez an opportunity AOE
It doesn’t even need to be a podium; a drive from towards the back of the grid to near the front, with some exquisite racing, would prove he still has what it takes AOE
If not, three years on from saving his F1 skin with a shock call-up at Red Bull for the unfortunate Albon, Perez himself could be the recipient of the ruthlessness of the Red Bull merry-go-round AOE
Time to deliver, Checo AOE
