Tottenham boss Ange Postecoglou is happy with his growing relationship with chairman Daniel Levy.

Postecoglou is confident of working well with Levy.

"I guess whenever you go into a role like this you always know that relationships are going to help you as a manager to get the things you need to work the way you want," he admitted.

"There is always one or two, wherever I have been, key decision makers - and Daniel is no different to all the other ones I have worked with. They are very passionate about their football club. That's the one common dominator.

"They are all different sorts of personalities, but they are all very passionate about their football club and they want their football club to be successful. So you understand that and then, for me, it's about saying, what's that relationship going to look like? Again, I think what he wants to do is support me.

"I think that will be easy as he gets to know me a little bit better, which is only understandable, but I also understand that him being the key decision maker, he is the one that made the decision to bring me in. So, for me, there's an obligation I have now to make sure I repay that faith."

He added: "He gave me this responsibility. Beyond that, like I said, just try and get him to understand me and what I am about, because I think all these things are a matter of trust. The more you end up trusting each other as sort of key people, the more things happen a lot more naturally.

"It's only natural at the start you are always going to be a bit wary with any sort of new manager coming in, about how they are going to work, how they are going to behave, all those kind of things, but so far I have had all the support I've needed in terms of the staff I've brought in, the transfers we made and it's just got to continue like that.
