Mark Schwarzer believes Ange Postecoglou will 'prove doubters' wrong at Spurs...as former Socceroos star reveals how Premier League's newest arrival can make the laziest players work hard

Mark Schwarzer's Socceroos career ended under Ange Postecoglou. Tommy Oar's thrived.

Both have no doubt the incoming Tottenham manager will make the ruthless calls required to turn his groundbreaking Premier League appointment into a success.

Postecoglou became the first Australian manager of a Premier League club when he was announced as Spurs manager on a four-year deal on Tuesday, finishing up his trophy-laden stint at Celtic.

Schwarzer, who made way for Maty Ryan as goalkeeper early in Postecoglou's tenure, expects him to thrive.

'I truly believe he'll do a really good job there,' Schwarzer told Optus Sport.
