Tottenham Hotspur are now more than a week into their pre-season schedule, and Ange Postecoglou has taken some time to discuss the way things are going for his squad right now and what his plans for the future are.
There is still plenty of summer left for Spurs, but Ange Postecoglou has big ambitions for the Lilywhites for the upcoming campaign, and the hard work starts now, it seems.
Speaking to SpursPlay, Postecoglou said: “Pre-season is obviously an opportunity to gain fitness and get the guys back up to speed from a match perspective, but for us, it’s a real valuable time where we can embed our principles and how we want to play.
“All this is here for the players. I really want the players to come back here and see we haven’t stood still, that we’re constantly moving forward. The main thing for us is to get work done with the boys.”
The majority of Tottenham players returned to Hotspur Way last week to begin their training ahead of the new campaign.
Spurs have already played one friendly match, a behind-closed-doors game against League One side Cambridge United. The Lilywhites won that game 7-2 with a Brennan Johnson hattrick, a Heung-min Son brace, a Mikey Moore goal, and an own goal forced by Timo Werner.
Up next is a clash with Scottish side Hearts on Wednesday night, at the opponents’ Tynecastle ground.

I have no doubts that Postecoglou and his coaching staff will put in great work with the players we have on the training ground.
But, the key thing is we add new players to that squad and get closer to the way of playing that Ange wants to see this season so that we can compete across all fronts.
