Postecoglou vows to 'bring success' after Spurs fans criticise their erratic form

WE NEED TO BREAK CYCLE: ANGE

LONDON - Tottenham Hotspur manager Ange Postecoglou said his resolve to bring success to the struggling English Premier League club has been strengthened by a tough run of results, despite being confronted by angry supporters.

The Australian was in the spotlight after he exchanged words with some fans in the travelling support following the 1-0 defeat at Bournemouth on Dec 5.

He had pledged earlier this season to end Spurs' 16-year wait to win a trophy during his second campaign in charge.

"I am here, I am going to fight to make sure we bring success to this football club," Postecoglou said on Dec 6, ahead of the Dec 8 home clash with Chelsea. "Nothing really changes.

"Where there is doubt, internally or externally, it just gets my resolve stronger to make sure we get it right."

When pressed on his interaction with supporters after the Bournemouth game, the 59-year-old added: "They aren't behind me, they are behind the club. I have got no interest in who is behind me.
