Chris Sutton has been one of Ange Postecoglou’s strongest supporters ever since the day he came to Tottenham.

More times than Joe Root has supported England, the pundit has taken the pitch for Postecoglou.

Sutton genuinely has a soft spot for Postecoglou as a Celtics supporter, and he will fight Postecoglou to the death if necessary.

Speaking on BBC 606, Sutton and Robbie Savage got into a small fight on Postecoglou while debating their candidates for Manager of the Season.

Savage argued in favour of Rob Edwards, saying that maintaining Luton’s position is a greater accomplishment than playing attractive football with Tottenham in fifth place.

As you would expect, Sutton was not pleased with this proposal and took a jab at Savage for showing favouritism towards the Spurs manager.

Chris Sutton not happy with Robbie Savage’s Ange Postecoglou comments

This circumstance led to a slight altercation between the two experts.

“So Chris, Luton Town’s success if they continue to win under Rob Edwards is amazing. What’s better, Big Ange changing the Spurs’ style of play, winning the ‘well done’ trophy, and finishing fifth, or Rob Edwards keeping Luton up?” Savage asked.

“An important question: Why do you support Ange Postecoglou? Would you tell him it out loud? Congratulations on winning the “well played” prize, would you say? No, you wouldn’t. You’re still playing at a non-league level, which is understandable given your severe lack of game knowledge, Sutton remarked.

Both have a point

Both of the men have valid points in this argument, which makes it quite entertaining.

There is no denying that Postecoglou has improved Spurs tremendously on the pitch, but Spurs are currently only fifth in the league, which isn’t really an upgrade over what Jose Mourinho or Antonio Conte were doing.

Football is, at its core, a results-driven sport, and while Postecoglou is steering Tottenham in the right direction, the team hasn’t seen much success under his leadership just yet.

Maybe Rob Edwards is closer to his goals this season than Postecoglou is in the competition for Manager of the Season.

Troy Parrott scores again away from Spurs

Parrott, who has been having a great season at Excelsior Rotterdam, scored another goal on Friday night despite the team’s 2-1 loss against Almere City.

With seven goals and three assists in 17 Eredivisie games, Parrott, 22, has already contributed to ten goals in his career. A G/A occurs every 94 minutes.

This featured a recent MOTM performance that was so impressive that it made several teams take notice of the Northern Ireland international.

Troy Parrott is in demand

Football.london reports that teams in the Championship, Eredivisie, and Serie A have expressed interest in Parrott.

They further claim that Parrott is still adamant about proving himself at Tottenham. His deal with Spurs expires in 2025, but there may be a clause that allows the team to extend it by an additional year.

Considering that a serious injury cost him a chance to play for Postecogou last summer, he is in the category of players hoping to attract his attention. Well, he’s off to a great start. Excellently done, Troy.
