Ange Postecoglou admits he supported one of Tottenham's Premier League rivals as a child, as he jokes 'I've taken the posters down!' since joining Spurs

Ange Postecoglou has revealed he supported one of Tottenham's Premier League rivals as a kid.

The 58-year-old took over the north London side this summer and has guided them to a fine start to the season.

The Greek-born Australian Postecoglou has admitted he always wanted to become a manager from a young age and was inspired by one of England's biggest clubs.

'I was a massive Liverpool fan. I loved Bill Shankly, I loved the boot room, the whole story,' the Spurs boss told Gary Lineker on BBC's Football Focus.
