Spurs Postecoglou Has No Regrets On Trophy Comments

Tottenham Hotspur boss Ange Postecoglou said he has no regrets saying he always wins a trophy in his second season at a club as the North London side looks to overturn a first leg deficit at home against AZ Alkmaar in the Europa League.

With Spurs out of both domestic cups and 36 points behind Premier League leaders Liverpool, the Europa League is the last chance at silverware for a club who have not won a trophy since 2008.

Postecoglou made the claim having won trophies in his second seasons with Australias Brisbane Roar, Japans Yokohama F Marinos and Scotlands Celtic.

But his Spurs side must first beat Alkmaar who lead 1-0 after the first leg in the Netherlands.

No, no extra pressure. We were obviously disappointed with our performance in the first leg. The important thing is we didnt make the tie impossible for us to get back into, its still very tight, Postecoglou told reporters on Wednesday.
