Ange Postecoglou responded to Leyton Orient manager Richie Wellens, who claimed he doesn’t make excuses for injuries like the Tottenham boss. TIMESTAMPS: 00:00 Protecting the players?: I don’t gauge the tone of what I say. We let a good team take control. We didn’t handle it well. 00:52 - Season hinges on this game?: No because we have other games. I don’t think about what I do in those senses.

It is what it is. It doesn’t change the decisions I make. 11:59 - Fear the fans will stop listening to you: I don’t know how it’s a narrative when you’re just stating facts. I really don’t know how to answer that. 13:52 - Semi-finals are tricky: it was a real disappointment. We gave ourselves a chance to reach the final. I’d rather be
