Ange Postecoglou has urged Tottenham fans to dream big after his side extended their lead at the summit of English football with a 2-0 win over Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park.
This marks Spurs' biggest lead at the top of the table since 1961, and is the perfect opportunity to set the imagination alight. "Let them dream," said Postecoglou, when asked what his message to the supporters was. "It's what being a football fan is all about. It's fair to say that this lot have suffered a fair bit so I'm certainly not going to dampen that."
Postecoglou was particularly pleased with the manner in which his side have achieved their results. "Pretty much from the first game we've had all sorts of different challenges we've had to overcome," he said. "Every time there has been a real focus and clear-headedness about the group collectively to deal with that."
Heung-min Son, who scored Spurs' second goal of the night, was quick to play down talk of a title challenge. “No, not at all," said the South Korean. "I'm experienced, I can't just say we are going to win the league. Obviously not."
"You know my answer," he continued. "We just want to stay grounded and stay humble because it is still early in the season. We just want to go game by game and get three points in every single game. Then we will see what will happen at the end of the season. We will work hard and let's see what happens.”
The result sees Tottenham move five points clear at the top of the Premier League table, with Arsenal and Manchester City still to play this weekend. Postecoglou's men will be hoping to continue their fine form and keep their dreams of league glory alive.
