Angel Postcoglou was in a mood less than patient before the Tottenham Europa League conflict with Frankfurt on Thursday.
The lamentable Spurs campaign took a slight recovery with a 3-1 victory against Southampton on Sunday and is now preparing for the biggest match of their season.
However, the Australian head coach seemed to be fed up with the same silly questions at his press conference before the first leg in the quarter-final, including one on the penalty of the spurs of the last second against the saints.
Brennan Johnson seemed eager to kick after having already marked a splint in the match, but he had his moment removed by Mathys Tel, who was not mistaken and put his first goal in the Premier League since he was ready from Bayern Munich.
When asked for the incident, Postcoglou said: “We have marked, we won. Delighted. It’s amazing, it’s just … literally transforming gold into shit when it is Tottenham. Seriously. If we are 2-1 tomorrow evening and we want to say that the only blow against this club is apparently a winner.
“Well, the winner’s mentality in the last minute of the match is to score a goal. We scored a goal. And yet in a way in this ultimate universe where everything Tottenham is wrong, it has become negative.”

Again, Postcoglou was then asked about his future as a Tottenham chief coach, to which he signed up before giving his answer.
He added: “I came to this club with a clear goal and a vision of what the club needed and what I could offer. It is to change the way the team plays, to obviously rejuvenate the team because it was a team that arrived towards the end of a cycle and to bring success.
“As long as I am in this position, it is always my goal, whatever the noise or what can be or not in the future. I do not see that, it should decrease my burning ambition, my desire and my determination to get there.
“Everything you make in life usually comes with a fight. Admittedly, everything I have achieved in my life came with a fight from a professional perspective. It’s just another struggle, but never thanks to this struggle, I have lost the will to fight for what I think is the right thing to do and I will continue to do it. ”
The reports suggest that if Postcoglou wins the Europa League, he could have more time in his current position. Nothing less, however, would probably see him losing his job.
He continued: “We are in this position that the good things that we can do should be transformed into a rhetoric halfway and in this point of view, I do not think it can be a driver in what we want to do.
“The guys are really eager to succeed in the club, to continue to drive the principles of what we have started all this trip, in terms of football that we want to play, really stay together as they did through the most difficult rules and I hope that we have progressed in a position where we can have an impact on our season, a really disappointing season for us.
“I just think there is a real determination to seize the opportunity they have won at this stage.”
