Ange Postecoglou lost the sweepstake. Truth be told, the new Tottenham manager lost it by a distance. He and his coaches had speculated on how long it would take at his media unveiling before the subject of Harry Kane was raised. The answer was three questions. “I think Mile Jedinak has won,” Postecoglou said. “I had over six because I thought you’d care more about me.”
Written in black and white, the line can look a little chippy, which was not really the case. It was dry and quite funny, getting a few laughs. Yet there was an edge to it, just as there is an edge to the man who Spurs hope can turn around their fortunes.
