Ange Postecoglou responds when asked if he'll quit Tottenham after Europa League triumph

gave a telling response when asked if he would walk away from Tottenham after the final. The charismatic Aussie delivered on his promise to win a trophy in his second season at the club as the north Londoners edged past Manchester United. Brennan Johnson's first-half goal proved to be the difference in a scrappy game of very little quality.

Postecoglou looked emotional as the celebrations got underway, having secured Tottenham's first major trophy in 17 years. Before the match, there was plenty of speculation that he could walk away regardless of whether Spurs won or lost. However, the 59-year-old suggested that he still had unfinished business when quizzed on his future after collecting his winners' medal.

"I've had such a laser focus on winning this thing that I didn't even [think about it]," said Postecoglou on TNT Sports. "We're still building this team. It's still a very young team and we need to add some experience to it.

"We're in the Champions League next season. My thought process and what I've been doing is trying to build a team that can be successful for four, five, six years.

"I'm the manager of the football club. That decision is not in my hands. It doesn't affect me, though. If it was going to affect me, you would have seen it in the build-up to here.

"All I cared about is this thing, this medal around my neck. If I did [have it], it would have meant that this football club has won a trophy."

When asked directly if he intended to walk away, Postecoglou replied: "I don't feel like I've completed the job yet. We're still building.

"The moment I accepted the role, I had one thing in my head and that was to win something. We've done that now, so I want to build on it."

Postecoglou was also quizzed on his promise to win a trophy in his second season at , something he was roundly mocked for at the time.

"People misinterpreted me," he said. "It was not me boasting, just me making a declaration and I believed it. I had this thing inside me more than anything else.

"I know our league form has been unacceptable, but coming third was not going to change this football club. Winning a trophy would. That was my ambition and I was prepared to wear it if it did not happen."
