Signing the striker is a statement of intent for Spurs and team’s reshaped attack could make impact at Leicester in season opener
nge Postecoglou could not hide his smirk when the question came about whether his record of second‑season success is about to continue in north London. “Dunno,” the Tottenham manager said. “I expect what I expect all the time, mate. To do my job and see what that brings. But I would suggest that it’s not by accident. We’ll improve and see where that takes us.”
While it may be stretching things to imagine that they can go all the way, as Postecoglou was able to achieve in the five previous jobs where he lasted longer than 12 months, there is certainly expectation that Tottenham can sustain a serious challenge for a top-four finish.
“My role in all signings is pretty small – I just make the decision. I’m the one that says yes or no,” Postecoglou said on the influence he had on the move. “They’re here because I want them here and Dom certainly fits that. I thought he did well against us and gave us some problems that a lot of other strikers in the league maybe didn’t give us. His mobility and his movement was really impressive. It’s no secret that we love to press and he has a great work ethic. And he can score goals.
