Fans have spotted Ange Postecoglou's post-match interview habit whenever Spurs lose.

Spurs threw away a 2-0 lead to lose 3-2 away at Brighton on Sunday, leaving the North London side ninth in the table after seven games.

Brennan Johnson continued his incredible run of form to put Spurs 1-0 up before the lead was doubled by a strike from James Maddison.

Spurs were 2-0 up and cruising at half-time but Brighton pulled one back through Yankuba Minteh just minutes into the second half.

Georginio Rutter made it 2-2 just before the hour mark before Danny Welbeck completed the stunning comeback.

Postecoglou looked stunned at the collapse from his side while on the touchline and he was whisked in for a post-match interview with Sky Sports.

And fans have spotted a trend in the Australian's interviews if Spurs have lost - with many claiming he shows no eye contact to the reporter.

One wrote: "Ange post match presser with no eye contact and getting rattled by the reporter asking a simple question."

A second said: "Postecoglou is a fraud. Won’t look at the reporter. The guy is finished."

A third noticed: "You can tell Postecoglou’s absolutely gutted by that performance. His head was down throughout the entire post-match interview."

Another added: "Ange mate look at the camera or the interviewer, not your feet all the time mate."

A fifth joked: "Drinking game: take a shot every time Ange looks at the interviewer post game after a defeat."

After a strong first half where they were flying, Spurs stopped playing in the second half and Dominic Solanke was barely involved.

Postecoglou was dejected afterwards and labelled the loss the worst since he took the job.

Speaking to Sky Sports, he said: "Disappointing. Frustrated and absolutely gutted with that. Worst defeat since I've been here.

"Unacceptable second half. Nowhere near where we should be. We got carried away with how were were going.

"We kind of accepted our fate, and it is hard to understand as we've not done that while I've been here. We paid the price.

"The problem is we are travelling along too smoothly, football and life will trip you up if you get too far ahead of yourself."
