Before their Premier League match in north London, the manager of West Ham says he was taken aback by the response to the former Celtic manager’s early success at Tottenham.
Ange Postecoglou’s revolution at Tottenham, according to David Moyes, is not surprising given his success at Celtic, which made it seem inevitable that he would succeed in the Premier League.
The boss of West Ham, Moyes, warns his team that Spurs are “as good as any side” in England when they play them on Thursday night. Furthermore, he thinks that Postecoglou’s way of inspiring Tottenham is not as shocking as many people think.
After how well he performed at Celtic, Moyes remarked, “I’m a little surprised that everybody else was surprised.” The pressure and responsibilities of managing Celtic Football Club are immense for those who follow the sport. Ange managed to handle and get through it.
When I was Manchester United’s manager, I played against Ange and kept a watch on him while I was in Australia. Although I wouldn’t say I know him well, I think he did a great job at Celtic and inspired them to play, and he is currently performing admirably at Tottenham.
This season, West Ham has been quite successful on the counterattack, which should present opportunities to breach Spurs’ strong defensive line. Nevertheless, despite Postecoglou’s ongoing injury problems, Moyes thinks his team is so good that neutralizing all of their threats should come first.
“We’re fully aware of that, but they play high up with lots of speed and are very aggressive in their press,” he continued. We’ll have to deal with a lot of things in the game.
Michail Antonio, a striker for West Ham, is still sidelined due to a knee ligament injury he sustained while on Jamaican duty last month, though he is improving in the gym.
However, captain Kurt Zouma will be back after being absent from Sunday’s draw with Crystal Palace due to a break-in at his residence. £25,000 is being offered by West Ham in exchange for information that results in the intruders’ arrest.
Moyes responded, “He’s been fine.” He has returned. He’s been in a terrible situation, but the club is doing a great job of supporting him.
“He is our captain, and we are totally in support of him. Nobody would want that to happen to them, in my opinion. The club has offered a reward, which should help in getting the offenders arrested.
