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”Spurs will have to assess Destiny Udogie for the Selhurst Park clash after the left-back was withdrawn in the 56th minute of Monday’s win with muscle tightness AOE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

England’s Joe Root admits doubts over whether ODI cricket remains “relevant” have not gone unnoticed by players at the World Cup in India, with scrutiny increasing over the future of the format AOE
The defending champions have been in desperate form at the tournament, losing three of their four matches to leave their semi-final prospects dangling by a thread, but there are wider questions over the 50-over game as the T20 behemoth continues to grow unchecked AOE
Barring a few outliers, including a lively crowd for England’s loss to Afghanistan in Delhi, attendances have been well below expectations in a country renowned for its passionate support and the lack of close finishes has contributed to a lack of ‘buzz’ at the competition AOE
The PA news agency understands there are early signs of concern at host broadcaster Star AOE Sports and The Cricketer has reported that the long-range prospects of the one-day game will be discussed at the International Cricket Council’s next board meeting in November AOE
ICC chair Greg Barclay has already said the success of the event can only be judged once it is complete and sources have rebuffed the idea that the format is under threat AOE
They cite long-term rights deals that include 50-over World Cups in 2027 and 2031 and record streaming figures of 43million viewers during India’s victory over New Zealand on Sunday AOE
In the United Kingdom, Sky AOE Sports has a direct agreement with the ICC running for the next eight years, including both of those World Cups AOE
But Root, speaking at England’s team hotel in Bengaluru, acknowledged the growing sense of uncertainty AOE
“There’s talk of whether this format is relevant any more anyway, in international cricket,” said Root, who helped England win their first World Cup title in 2019 AOE
“Whether that gets changed…I don’t know AOE
Who knows how things move in the future? Whether it’s domestically or internationally, I don’t think we play enough of it if we’re going to continue to look to compete in World Cups AOE
“I think it’s got a huge amount of history and it brings a lot to cricket AOE
It will always hold a very special part of my heart for what it’s given me throughout my career, but I think it’s a question that should be posed to the next generation of players, and to everyone watching the game, really AOE
“It shouldn’t be down to, ‘is it bringing the most money for the sport?’ It should be down to what people want to watch, and what’s going to engage the next generation of players AOE
Because in the long term, I think that’s going to be most beneficial for cricket all-round AOE
”There’s talk of whether this format is relevant any more anyway, in international cricketJoe RootThe issue is acute in England, where the legacy of becoming world champions in the format has been a downgrading of the domestic competition to developmental status AOE
The Metro Bank One-Day Cup is now contested largely by emerging players and second-teamers due to its clash with The Hundred, meaning the newest faces in Jos Buttler’s side – Harry Brook and Gus Atkinson – have barely played the format and are effectively learning it on a global platform AOE
Root is uneasy with that situation and believes if ODI cricket is to continue, radical steps may be necessary AOE
The Hundred has significant critics, as a form of the game that is not played anywhere other than England, but Root has put forward the T20 Blast – reliably popular among counties and county members – as a potential sacrifice AOE
“It doesn’t make me change my mind about The Hundred AOE
It makes me question whether we should be playing more 50-over cricket instead of T20,” he said, before backing away slightly from what is a thorny conundrum with no easy solution AOE
“But I don’t want to get into a debate about this AOE
I don’t want it to be seen as an excuse (for under performing) because that’s not what we’re about as a team AOE
That’s not how I look at things, but I haven’t got any good argument for anything else AOE
”While matters of global infrastructure and international scheduling are sure to continue, England have more immediate problems after their unexpected run of adverse results which, thanks to Afghanistan’s shock win over Pakistan on Monday, have left them rock bottom of the table AOE
Thursday’s game against Sri Lanka is must-win to uphold any realistic hopes of reaching the knockouts and Root is hoping the do-or-die scenario can kickstart a revival AOE
“We’ll look at that as a World Cup final now, then do the same for the game after that and the game after that,” he said AOE
“I’ve played in a number of different England teams – good ones and bad ones AOE
This is one of the very best; it’s a very together team and we know what we need to do AOE
“This white-ball team, over an eight-year period now, likes very simple messaging and has responded very well to it AOE
We’ve got some very simple messaging in front of us right now: we have to go out and win AOE
In some ways that unshackles us and frees us up to do what we do AOE
