Julen Lopetegui is all set to take his West Ham United team into battle against Ange Postecoglou’s Tottenham today.
For both clubs, the Premier League matchup between Tottenham and West Ham is crucial.
Unlike Julen Lopetegui, Ange Postecoglou demonstrated prior to the game that he appreciated the significance of the match by emphasizing its significance to the supporters in his remarks. We have someone who understands it on the pitch, at least. Max Kilman’s remarks yesterday, in advance of the Spurs game, inspired the team. This season, we’ve actually performed better away from the London Stadium than at home, and we’ve triumphed three times there since 2017.
In light of this, there’s no reason the players shouldn’t be optimistic about their prospects today. The West Ham supporters aren’t completely sold on Lopetegui yet, though. Though he hasn’t made much of an impression in East London, what does Ange think of the Spaniard?
Ange Postecoglou makes Julen Lopetegui prediction
The former Real Madrid, Spain, Sevilla and Wolves manager is still under intense pressure, despite the 4-1 win over Ipswich Town.
In an interview with reporters prior to the game yesterday, Postecoglou made a bold prediction about the Hammers head coach, as reported by Football.London: “I’m always intrigued by managers taking that path. He’s a top quality coach. He’s starting to build the team he wants at West Ham and it’ll be exciting for the supporters.” Despite this, Postecoglou believes that a bright future awaits the Hammers fans under Lopetegui.
That’s quite the prediction.
The football has been anything but exciting so far this season, although there were plenty of positive signs during our win over Ipswich Town.
The bottom line is that Julen Lopetegui needs plenty of time at West Ham before he’s judged fairly.
And it remains to be seen as to whether or not Postecoglou’s prediction on the Hammers boss comes true.
The match today will be a big sign of how far we’ve come as a team.
Will the players stand up and be counted, and get a big result against Spurs? Or will they fold like a cheap suit under the pressure of a London derby?
Only time will tell – roll on kick-off…
