Ange Postecoglou has revealed he has pulled out of his fantasy football league after becoming Tottenham manager.

The former Celtic boss has played the popular Fantasy Premier League game for the past 20 years with his close friends.

However, after becoming a Premier League manager in the real world he has dropped out - and insists he won't be handing out any tips on his squad selection.

Speaking ahead of Sunday's 2-2 draw with Brentford, Postecoglou said: "I've got a few friends coming to the match. It's fair to say I've been inundated for tickets but it's great because they've been along for the journey.

"We all had those dreams and we're all living it together because for me they're just part of it as well because I wouldn't be sitting here today without them.

"They're all going to be here and for the first time in I reckon 20 years I've had to pull out of our fantasy Premier League group as well which I'm gutted about and if they try to grill me for information they're getting nothing out of me.

"I don't need to play now because I am a Premier League manager. There you go, it's not a fantasy anymore!"

Meanwhile, Postecoglou praised the resilience of his squad after claiming a point on the opening weekend after Harry Kane's departure to Bayern Munich.

He said: “Football clubs move on pretty quickly.

“I haven’t needed to address it, I haven’t needed to give them a warm fuzzy cuddle just to see how they are. We had a game to prepare for and they knew that.

“I think that was the important thing for us.

“If it felt like we were distracted, I was distracted or anyone else, I think you would have seen evidence of it today, particularly after that first half and the way it went.

“We showed a real resilience that we’re going to need because it’s going to be a challenging year for sure.

“It was a good starting point for us today, but we need to improve and we have to improve and we will.

“I think that 2-1 down, having conceded a penalty and an own goal, it would have been very easy for us to drop our heads but I never sensed that in the group.”
