Dejan Kulusevski: Spurs players need to take pressure off much-loved Postecoglou

Ange Postecoglou has not only redefined how Tottenham play football but also how they see themselves as a team, with Dejan Kulusevski offering a revealing glimpse into life under his leadership.

Ange Postecoglou’s Tottenham revolution

There is no doubt that since Ange Postecoglou took charge at Tottenham Hotspur almost two seasons ago, the Australian manager has infused a sense of optimism and unity that North London had been yearning for after years of inconsistency and managerial turbulence.

From his engaging press conferences to the attacking philosophy he has instilled in his team, Postecoglou has breathed fresh life into a club that seemed to be struggling to find its identity.

Such bonds are crucial for any club aspiring to achieve long-term success. A manager who earns the trust and respect of his players is far more likely to foster a group willing to give their all, not just for the team but for the system and ideals that the manager represents.

For Tottenham, Postecoglou’s arrival has marked a shift in mentality, and this transformation is evident in the way players have bought into his methods.

Tottenham Hotspur winger Dejan Kulusevski, who has been instrumental in Postecoglou’s attacking setup, recently shed light on the manager’s impact on the squad and his approach to handling the pressures that come with leading a high-profile club.

Speaking about Postecoglou, Kulusevski offered a candid insight into the relationship between the players and their manager.

He told skysports: “He’s a very good coach and I think all the players like him a lot and enjoy playing for him. It’s up to us to get the results and make it work [so that he doesn’t continue to be under pressure].” 

What Dejan Kulusevski’s comments reveal

Dejan Kulusevski’s reflections on Ange Postecoglou’s management offer a glimpse into the dynamics of a team that seems to be heading in the right direction under his guidance.

The winger’s acknowledgement of the need for results underscores the reality that while a strong relationship between players and their manager is crucial, it must be accompanied by tangible success to withstand scrutiny.

Looking ahead, the challenge for Postecoglou will be to build on this foundation, ensuring that the goodwill he has cultivated translates into consistent performances and results.

As Kulusevski rightly pointed out, the responsibility lies with the entire squad to execute the manager’s vision and deliver on the promise of this new era at Tottenham Hotspur.
