ANGE Postecoglou has continued his winning ways in the English Premier League.

This time his Tottenham side extended its unbeaten run to three games with a comprehensive 2-0 win over Bournemouth last weekend.

Going into the matchup as slight favourites, Postecoglou’s side quickly took control of the game with ‘Ange Ball’ on full display for the travelling supporters.

James Maddison’s strike in the 17th minute showcased the new style of the Spurs’ attack before Dejan Kulusevski sealed the win just after the hour mark.

Postecoglou’s influence on the team has made him an instant fan favourite with the travelling fans chanting, “We’ve got our Tottenham back”, while enjoying a 2-0 lead.

Meanwhile, off the field the Spurs’ fans couldn’t get enough of the Australian, creating a catchy new chant to the tune of Robbie Williams’ Angels.

Postecoglou continued to make headlines off the field with Manchester United legend Peter Schmeichel crediting the 58-year-old for changing the club in his short tenure.

After the win, Postecoglou took a subtle jab at English Premier League great Gary Neville, who claimed the Australian was copying Manchester City coach Pep Guardiola’s philosophy.

In post-match comments, Postecoglou joked he was “just copying Pep”.

Postecoglou’s side will rest briefly before a congested week of games, starting with an EFL Cup tie with Fulham on Wednesday morning before facing Burnley on Sunday morning.
