Ange Postecoglou made a big impact on his Tottenham squad before they'd even kicked a ball this summer.
The former Celtic man immediately set about restoring order at the north London club following what proved a truly chaotic 2022/23 season. Amid a series of public criticisms of his players, manager Antonio Conte was dismissed in March, only for interim boss Cristian Stellini to last just a matter of weeks.
It was Ryan Mason who eventually took control for the final few games, as Spurs could only labour to eighth place, missing out on European football. But upon his arrival on a two-year deal, Postecoglou gave reason for positivity as he addressed the first team players.
