The reaction of Tottenham supporters to Ange Postecoglou’s appointment was mixed -- even if many fans are warming to the idea as they learn more about their new head coach -- but in Australia’s football fraternity the news was met with universal acclaim.
Postecoglou is the first Australian to manage a Premier League club, capping a remarkable rise for the 57-year-old, whose career to date has included stints in the semi-professional game Down Under as well as Greece, Japan and Scotland.
