Tottenham's Postecoglou Dismisses Champions League as Ultimate Goal, Aims for Continuous Improvement

Ange Postecoglou emphasizes building a strong team foundation over merely qualifying for the Champions League, amid fan backlash over ticket price hikes.

Tottenham Hotspur head coach Ange Postecoglou emphasizes the club's ambition to aim for first place, dismissing the notion that qualifying for the Champions League is their ultimate goal.
Postecoglou argues that merely qualifying for the Champions League does not guarantee success or improvement, citing the examples of Manchester United and Newcastle United's struggles despite participating in the competition.
The coach stresses the importance of continuous improvement and development over merely participating in the Champions League, aiming to build a team that can consistently compete at the top.
Postecoglou's approach is focused on creating a strong foundation for Tottenham, prioritizing the team's identity and football over short-term achievements.
The announcement of a 6% hike in Tottenham season ticket prices and ending new senior concessions from the 2025-26 season has sparked anger among fans, a situation Postecoglou chooses not to comment on, focusing instead on his role in football.
