Ange Postecoglou was delighted by Tottenham's acquisition of Mathys Tel and believes he will be a top player ahead of Spurs' trip to Liverpool in the Carabao Cup. TIMESTAMPS 00:00 - Intro. 00:13 - Team news? Everyone fit from last week, Kevin and Tel available and trained, Micky and Romero need to be more conservative with them. Neither ready for PL intensity. 01:47 - Will Danso play? He will play whether he starts or not. 02:33 - Persuading Tel to sign - he has to make a major decision at a young age, he just wanted to be comfortable with the decision.

He feels he can reach the top of the game. 04:48 - Any Nerves before the second leg - Liverpool won't be less anxious, it's a big game for both clubs.

The nature of the player we’ve signed shows they are long-term signings. 09:09 Any frustration about late signings - they couldn't be done (sooner). People are not actively working against me. It was a tricky window. All you can ask of people is that they do everything in their power to achieve an outcome. 10:15 Are there too many fixtures? - I sit here and I talk and I wonder if there is a correlation of what goes in people’s ears. I didn’t complain about a lack of games last season. It is our situation with our injury situation. 11:37 Do you tweak your philosophy for the secon
