Ange Postecoglou has viewers in stitches after Jamie Carragher says 'you're just copying Pep aren't you'

Spurs manager Ange Postecoglou delivered a post-match segment for the ages after his side secured a 2-1 victory over Crystal Palace on Friday night.

The 58-year-old former Australia national team manager, who took the job at Tottenham in June following a successful stint at Celtic, has made a blistering start to life in England's top flight.

He has already set the record for the most points earned by a Premier League manager in their first nine games in charge.

And on a cold Friday night in South London, Spurs extended their lead at the top of the league to five points as goals from Joel Ward [OG] and Son Heung-min sealed all three points at Selhurst Park.

After the final whistle, the enigmatic Postecoglou joined Gary Neville, Jamie Carragher and Kelly Cates on the touchline to discuss a range of topics, including some more light-hearted chat.

In fact, one segment in particular has since gone viral on social media. It all began when former Liverpool defender Carragher joked, "At the moment you're just copying Pep aren't you?".

Postecoglou's response to both Carragher and Neville, who said he tried to copy Guardiola during his memorable spell at Valencia, was wonderful.

Postecoglou has won over so many fans in recent weeks, and his post-match chat on Sky Sports only enhanced his already-soaring reputation.

"Let them dream," he said after being asked what his message to the Spurs supporters was. "It's what being a football fan is all about.

"It's fair to say that this lot have suffered a fair bit so I'm certainly not going to dampen that. What's important is we're giving our supporters joy and hope. That's what football clubs are there for.

"Dreams last as long as they do until someone wakes you up. We'll see."

"I really liked the way we handled tonight," he added. "It is a difficult venue, they are a very well drilled team and going into it we knew it wouldn't be an open game.

"I liked the way the boys handled it, they were patient and consistently tried to find the gaps, then real composure at the end of the game. It was a different challenge and liked the way we went about it.

"This group are very determined to keep working hard. I see no reason why that won't continue."
