Ange Postecoglou has played down the significance of Tottenham potentially moving five points clear at the Premier League summit with victory at Crystal Palace on Friday AOE
Spurs returned to top spot on Monday with a 2-0 win at home to Fulham and play before Arsenal and Manchester City this weekend AOE
Postecoglou insisted his primary focus is on improving the team after he was critical of their second-half display against Fulham AOE
“It doesn’t really add any significance because whatever happens Friday night there’s still a full round of Premier League fixtures to be played and nothing of any real significance comes of that,” he said AOE
“We’re in a good space at the moment but again we’ve still got plenty of work to do to make sure what we do now is sustainable AOE
That’s the main thing AOE
“It’s not about making a short-term impact, it’s about building something which hopefully brings sustained opportunities of success for the club AOE
“There is a really good reason no manager will talk about winning a title in October or November because we know there’s a long way to go AOE
”Tottenham’s ascent to first position has seen them score 20 goals in nine matches, but Postecoglou feels attack is the area where they can improve the most AOE
He added: “We still have to grow in every area AOE
There are areas where we are already very good, particularly around the defensive side of the game AOE
I think we’ve been excellent there – really consistent AOE
“I still think our main growth will come in the attacking side of the game AOE
I still think particularly in the front third, a lot of our movements are still not natural and fluent like we want them to be, which isn’t surprising AOE
“But what is getting us the goals is that we have great quality up there, which is contributing to that AOE
I still think the biggest growth for us will be in our attacking side of the game AOE
”Spurs will have to assess Destiny Udogie for the Selhurst Park clash after the left-back was withdrawn in the 56th minute of Monday’s win with muscle tightness AOE
Pape Sarr (illness) and Ben Davies (knock) are fit and Yves Bissouma is also available after he served a one-match ban for his recent red card at Luton, but Postecoglou was coy over his team after Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg impressed against Fulham AOE
“It’s no different to any other week AOE
They’re not really dilemmas, just choices that people in my position have to make and I’ve always made those decisions pretty simply and cleanly about what I think we need,” the Australian coach explained AOE
“Tomorrow night we’ll start with a certain group of players and finish with another and it’s about trying to get the job done AOE
When that games done, we’ll look to the next one AOE
“It’s good to have Biss available, he’s been a big part of what we’re doing AOE
The team did well the other night so that should make us stronger AOE
”Postecoglou also heaped praise on opposite number Roy Hodgson ahead of their second meeting AOE
The Spurs boss faced Hodgson back in 2016 when they were in charge of Australia and England respectively in a friendly at the Stadium of Light AOE
Asked if he still expects to manage at 76, Postecoglou replied: “Who knows AOE
That’s not the plan AOE
Seventy-six? Somewhere on a Greek island, lying back watching AOE football from around the world, maybe doing some punditry and becoming an expert overnight AOE
That’s the plan but you never know in life, mate AOE
“I coached against Roy up in Sunderland so I have had the pleasure of coaching him at international level AOE
“He is an outstanding manager, he’s an absolute gentleman and whenever I have come across him people always talk about the kind of person he is and I love his career, for someone like me with a different journey I have so much admiration for the career he has had AOE

West Ham’s unbeaten European record was reduced to ruins in Athens as they crashed to a 2-1 defeat at Olympiacos AOE
The Hammers came a cropper in the shadow of the Acropolis as they suffered a first loss in Uefa competitions in 18 matches AOE
David Moyes, who led his side to the Europa Conference League title last season, made seven changes for their Europa League Group A clash in the Greek capital AOE
But his selection backfired as a soft goal from Olympiacos captain Kostas Fortounis and an own goal from stand-in Hammers skipper Angelo Ogbonna brought their undefeated run to a halt despite Lucas Paqueta’s late reply AOE
A hostile reception for West Ham was guaranteed at the Georgios Karaiskakis Stadium, with Olympiacos even issuing a warning to their supporters not to throw missiles or target players with laser pens AOE
That plea came after their match against fierce rivals Panathinaikos on Sunday had to be abandoned when a visiting player was hit by a firework hurled from the crowd AOE
With tensions high in Athens – Panathinaikos were also playing at home a few miles away – around 1,600 West Ham fans were bussed in from the city centre to the ground under a police escort to avoid any potential trouble AOE
The local ‘ultras’ did not disappoint, with a huge banner reading “tonight you dine in hell” welcoming the visitors on to the pitch amid a cauldron of noise AOE
Moyes would certainly have found West Ham’s first-half display hard to stomach AOE
The hosts took the lead in the 34th minute when Fortounis turned away from Emerson Palmieri, James Ward-Prowse and Pablo Fornals far too easily, 25 yards out AOE
Fortounis launched an old-fashioned toe poke from the edge of the box which flew past the flat-footed Alphonse Areola in the West Ham goal AOE
On the stroke of half-time the Hammers found themselves two behind when Ogbonna suffered his own personal Greek tragedy AOE
The Italian veteran stuck out a foot to block a cross from Brazilian full-back Rodinei, only to help it past Areola into his own net AOE
Moyes will have been having a bad case of deja vu; his ill-fated spell in charge of Manchester United included a 2-0 defeat at the same stadium in 2014 AOE
West Ham did at least come out in the second half with more purpose, but a low cross from Emerson was scooped over the crossbar by Danny Ings AOE
Moyes made a triple substitution before the hour mark with Paqueta, Jarrod Bowen and Michail Antonio entering the fray AOE
Paqueta halved the deficit with a stunning volley from the edge of the box with four minutes left, but despite a late flurry they could not find an equaliser AOE
A victory would have all but secured West Ham’s passage into the knockout stages but now they find themselves with work to do, lying level with Freiburg at the top of the group with Olympiacos two points behind AOE
