That\u2019s what being a football supporter is all about. This lot have suffered a fair bit. I\u2019m certainly not going to dampen that.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018This is a tough place to come. It\u2019s never going to be an open game of football here. I knew we\u2019d have to be patient. I keep relating it to boxing to the guys. You\u2019re not always going to get a knockout in the first minute or the first round. You\u2019ve got to keep moving the opposition.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Tottenham have taken 26 out of a possible 30 points in the Premier League under Postecoglou \u2013 the most by a manager from his first 10 games in the competition.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/10\/27\/22\/77099451-12681829-image-a-77_1698443988870.jpg\" height=\"431\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Ange Postecoglou has been hesitant to raise expectations but allowed fans to start &#8216;dreaming&#8217; after their 2-1 win against Palace<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/10\/27\/22\/77099445-12681829-image-a-76_1698443985748.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Son Heung-min scored his eighth of the season to help Spurs to victory on a difficult night<\/p>\n<p>Your browser does not support iframes.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018The dreams last as long as they do, until somebody wakes you up,\u2019 he added before rejecting the idea that his players might start to believe the hype surrounding them. \u2018I don\u2019t sense any of my squad are floating about the place. I don\u2019t think you\u2019d see me any different (whether top or not).<\/p>\n<p>\u2018I enjoy every game. I want the players to enjoy the game. Not because we&#8217;re top of the table but because we\u2019re living the dream, playing for a fantastic football club. The rest of it is about honouring that responsibility which has been bestowed upon us.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Palace boss Roy Hodgson said: \u2018We made life difficult for Tottenham. At the break we were satisfied. They are not top of the league for nothing. It was easy for them at 2-0 to take all the time in the world on the ball.\u2019<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/10\/27\/22\/77099457-12681829-image-a-75_1698443982022.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Tottenham extended their gap at the top of the Premier League table to five points\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3>IT&#8217;S ALL KICKING OFF!\u00a0<\/h3>\n<p><span>It&#8217;s All Kicking Off\u00a0is an exciting new podcast from Mail Sport that promises a different take on Premier League football, launching with a preview show today and every week this season.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>It is available on MailOnline, Mail+, YouTube , Apple Music and Spotify<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Your browser does not support iframes.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/sport\/football\/article-12681829\/Ange-Postecoglou-allow-fans-dare-dream-extending-unbeaten-Premier-League-start-against-Crystal-Palace-sit-five-points-clear-table.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ange Postecoglou will allow fans to dare to &#8216;dream&#8217;
