Tottenham boss Postecoglou: Deadline day? It was flat, wasn't it?

Tottenham boss Ange Postecoglou joked about his disappointment at the club's transfer window.

The Australian did get Radu Dragusin and Timo Werner over the line for his senior squad.

However, he told reporters there was a missed opportunity to make a deadline day singing - jokingly referring to Lewis Hamilton signing for Ferrari.

Postecoglou stated: “The only disappointing one for us was that I felt there was a good opportunity for us, but the club didn't feel it was right and he ended up going elsewhere. He went to Ferrari instead.....I got you all going there didn't I? I felt you needed something after a bit of a flat day yesterday."

He then added about the club's window: “We had clear objectives. We had a gap at centre-back after letting Davinson Sanchez go and getting Radu in was great. Getting Timo early also excellent.

“We've had injuries with Sonny away, and already he's made a contribution. If we left it to the last day it takes time to settle. Both have settled well. With outgoings, we got some good loans.

“With Alejo it's great for him to get game time at a good club. Also players like Ashley Phillips and Alfie Devine got good loans."
