Tottenham return to Southampton on Sunday for the first time since Antonio Conte's explosive post-match rant, but current boss Ange Postecoglou has not lost any of his determination to succeed at the club.

Conte's last public act as Spurs head coach after a 3-3 draw at St Mary's in 2023 was to launch a furious tirade against his own "selfish" players who he claimed "don't want to play under pressure" before he seemed to turn on the board as he questioned the club's ongoing trophy drought.

Eight days later Conte had left Tottenham by mutual consent after a whirlwind 16-month period, with Postecoglou his eventual permanent successor.

Postecoglou has been in charge of the Premier League club for two months longer than the Italian, but managed 12 fewer matches and is currently in the middle of an injury crisis which has resulted in a drop in form, with Spurs only able to claim one victory from their last eight fixtures.

However, when Postecoglou was asked if he would jump ship in the wake of making remarks like Conte did in March, 2023, he said: "Look, I don't think it's fair to comment.

"Antonio is a world-class manager and has his own way of doing things, his own reasons for doing that.

"I am here, I am in for the fight. I am in a fight, for sure. For better or worse I am not going anywhere at the moment because everything is still in my power and my responsibility.

"I still have a real desire to get us through this stage so that people see what is on the other side. My resolve and determination hasn't wavered one little bit.

"I love a fight, I love a scrap, I love being in the middle of a storm when everyone doubts because I know what it is on the other side if you get through it. My job is to get through it."
