Ange Postecoglou claims winning Europa League would be bigger than Man United winning an FA Cup, as Tottenham boss blasts critics trying to 'diminish' and belittle club ahead of Bodo/Glimt clash

Ange Postecoglou has claimed Tottenham winning the Europa League would be bigger than Manchester United winning the FA Cup.

The Spurs boss hit out at critics he said wanted to belittle his club's bid to lift a first trophy since 2008 and a first European title since the UEFA Cup in 1984.

'People are always trying to diminish it,' said Postecoglou, ahead of tonight's semi-final first leg at home to Bodo/Glimt of Norway. I've heard people say, "well, it's the equivalent of Man United winning the FA Cup".
