Celtic star Daizen Maeda would be the perfect "example" for Ange Postecoglou to show his Tottenham players his football philosophy.
And Kevin Gallacher admits he is "a little surprised" that the Australian has not already made his move to take the Japan international from Glasgow's east end to North London.

The Premier League heavyweights are languishing in the lower reaches of the table despite Sunday's victory over Manchester United. And former Scotland international Gallacher reckons Maeda could be a key man for Posecoglou at Spurs as he lives up his "we never stop" Parkhead mantra.
