Lloris convinced Spurs set for big things with Postecoglou

Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou will only get better in the Premier League in the coming years.

That is the view of veteran goalkeeper Hugo Lloris, who left the club in the winter.

Lloris, who was a long-time club captain, only has praise for the man who eventually ushered his exit out Spurs.

"Yes, but that was the discussion with Daniel Levy at the end of last season, I could feel it was the end of a generation and that probably the club will need to go in a new direction," said Lloris in an interview with Sky Sports, as he prepares for the new MLS season with LAFC.

"With freshness, with new and young players and with a different football approach and it's working really well at the moment - I'm glad for the club.

"Even if I wasn't involved in the last six months at Spurs, it was really interesting to see the Ange Postecoglou approach of football. To be part of the meetings, every training session, to understand his demands… I'm not really surprised the way he has impacted the football style at Spurs and he can only become better with time."

He added: "I think today being a Spurs fan is becoming really exciting and they are playing amazing football. Ange has made a huge impact in a short time, we all want to see what is the limit of this team. Success cannot be built in a few months or a year but they are going in the right direction.

"Especially after the last few seasons - we had some ups and downs - but we were not playing the football the fans expected and right now the football is back, so let's see where it's going to bring the club."
