Spiky Ange Postecoglou points to Celtic credentials as Tottenham 'winning trophies' question earns blunt response

Irked Ange Postecoglou was quick to point to his medal haul as the Tottenham boss was put on the spot about "picturing" himself winning trophies.

The former Celtic boss enjoyed a dominant spell at Parkhead before making his move to the English Premier League last summer - lifting five pieces of silverware during his time in the Scottish Premiership including a clean sweep of domestic honours with the Hoops last season. And along with a successful spell north of the border, Postecoglou has also won the Asia Cup with Australia and the domestic league with Brisbane Roar in 2011, as well as the J-League crown with Yokohama F Marinos.

However, that didn't stop the English media questioning the credentials of the Australian ahead of the FA Cup clash with Burnley. The trophy appears to be Spurs best chance of claiming a trophy during Postecoglou's first season in north London with the club falling out of the running in the title race.

And asked if he saw himself winning trophies, the Tottenham boss sharply responded: 'I've got real pictures, mate. There is quite a few of them mate.

The reporter attempted to clear up the question responding: "Mentally I am just thinking do you picture yourself..." But Postecoglou quickly cut in again. He said: "I just look at the ones I have got. I've earned them, it's not luck."
