Pep Guardiola believes the Premier League is better for the arrival of Ange Postecoglou at Tottenham. Postecoglou has made a positive impact since taking charge at Spurs in the summer, with the Londoners having gone unbeaten through their first 10 games while playing in a dynamic style. Guardiola’s treble-winning Manchester City are the next side to come up against the Australian’s troops as they host Spurs on Sunday. The City manager said: “He came here and, from nothing, in few months you recognise perfectly his team. “Even the games that they didn’t win lately, I’ve been impressed how good many, many things they do are, how many chances they create and how aggressive (they are) in all departments. “Every team plays with the desire of the manager. His have done in the past, in Japan, of course in Glasgow with Celtic and now. I think he makes football a better place. “As a manager and a spectator I enjoy a lot watching them play with the approach they have. I think all the Spurs fans and the people in England can admit that his impact has been quick and really good.” Spurs have gone slightly off the boil since their blistering start, losing their last three Premier League games. Guardiola, however, does not expect Postecoglou’s approach to change and is preparing for a tough encounter. The Spaniard, whose side are a point behind Premier League leaders Arsenal, said: “Absolutely not (will they change). This is not going to happen. I’d be surprised. “It is a more difficult competition to win now, every season it is getting better. There are more teams involved and every single game is so difficult. “Since I arrived, when (Mauricio) Pochettino was in Tottenham always, Spurs have been there. They’re a fantastic team. “Of course they have important absences but I saw the first 15, 20 minutes against Aston Villa and they created an amount of chances. It’s really good for football, definitely. “I encourage our fans to come to the stadium because we will have fun.” Guardiola and Postecoglou have crossed paths just once before, when City faced the Australian’s former side Yokohama F Marinos in a pre-season friendly in the Japanese city in 2019. He took care of me really well. He didn't offer me a glass of wine, but it was fine! Pep Guardiola Guardiola said: “When we played in Japan I saw some clips before we started. I said, ‘wow, there are things that I like’. “I said to the players we’re going to face a good team with challenges, intense build-up, intense and high pressing. “It was the first time I met him and since then I’ve followed him and seen how good he has done in Glasgow with Celtic, winning trebles and winning a lot of games and now look, in a short time he is there.” Guardiola said he enjoyed meeting with Postecoglou, even if one ritual was not adhered to in Japan. “He took care of me really well,” he said. “He didn’t offer me a glass of wine, but it was fine!” Read More Para thrower Funmi Oduwaiye ‘always knew I was destined for great things’ He’s doing well – Erik ten Hag sticks up for under-fire Andre Onana Cameron Norrie links up with coach Stephen Huss in bid to rediscover form Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp: Playing at Anfield is a ‘nightmare’ for opponents Top seeds England could face Scotland and Wales as teams await Euro 2024 draw Pakistan appoint Salman Butt to first official role since spot-fixing conviction
