Postecoglou excited by Bergvall

Postecoglou says he is hugely excited by the development of Lucas Bergvall this season and backs him to be a “big player” for Spurs in the next few years.

Kulusevski could be back

Postecoglou says Dejan Kulusevski and Kevin Danso are due to return to training later this week or early next.

He adds that Kulusevski has a chance to be involved in the second leg, but won’t start.

Praise for Udogie

Postecoglou: “I thought Destiny was outstanding in terms of his running capacity.”

Postecoglou laments missed chances

“I had a feeling they wouldn’t be too expansive and they’d play quite conservatively.”

He adds that their goalkeeper had a “ridiculous” game. “We hit the bar three times I think.”

Postecoglou pleased with Spurs performance

Ange Postecoglou speaking to TNT Sports: “I can’t ask any more from the lads. I thought the performance was good.”
