MATT BARLOW: As Tottenham head on their pre-season tour Ange Postecoglou faces issues such as uncertainty over the futures of Harry Kane and Hugo Lloris and working out how to get the best out of James Maddison

Tottenham's quest for the brave new world starts with a preseason voyage Down Under, back home for their new head coach Ange Postecoglou as he vows to reset the culture of the club.

'Win, score, be exciting and a compelling watch,' has been the message drummed out by their fifth permanent boss in four turbulent years since Spurs reached the Champions League final.

Postecoglu is committed to attacking and aggressive football. He demands high standards in training and in terms of behaviour and, in his native Australia, he will have the opportunity to understand his players better and shape his plans for the start of the season.
