But\u00a0Nicolas Jackson\u2019s late hat-trick ultimately sealed all three points for the visitors.<\/p>\n<p>Postecoglou struck an honest and reflective tone in his comments afterwards and refused to blame the officiating following one of the most incident-packed matches in recent times.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;No, I\u2019ve already said that whatever decision they\u2019ve made, they\u2019ve made.&#8217; The Spurs manager said. &#8216;At some point, we have to accept the referee&#8217;s decision. That\u2019s how I grew up.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/11\/07\/08\/77494039-12719505-image-a-1_1699346772181.jpg\" height=\"479\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Ange Postecoglou called on Premier League coaches to just manage their teams and leave the officiating to the referees<\/p>\n<p>Your browser does not support iframes.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/11\/07\/08\/77494059-12719505-image-a-2_1699346808323.jpg\" height=\"175\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/11\/07\/08\/77494055-12719505-image-a-3_1699346814376.jpg\" height=\"156\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/11\/07\/08\/77494057-12719505-image-a-4_1699346823230.jpg\" height=\"110\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Pundits were full of praise for the Spurs manager amid the current climate surrounding officiating in this country<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;This constant erosion of referees&#8217; authority, this is what the game is going to get: they will not have any authority, it is going to get diminished and we are going to be in the control of someone a few miles away watching a TV screen.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;The decision\u2019s the decision &#8211; you either accept it or you don\u2019t.

It is what it is.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Postecoglou has been lauded for his genuine appraisal and has drawn comparisons with Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta following his reaction to the Gunners&#8217; 1-0 defeat to Newcastle on Saturday.<\/p>\n<p>The Spaniard launched an astonishing attack on English referees\u00a0after\u00a0Anthony Gordon\u2019s winner and labelled the controversial goal an &#8216;absolute disgrace&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;This is nowhere near the [refereeing] level to describe this as the best league in the world.&#8217; The Arsenal boss added. &#8216;I feel sick to be part of this.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Mail Sport&#8217;s Oliver Holt called the Spurs boss a reflective leader, writing on X, formerly Twitter: &#8216;Postecoglou\u2019s reaction tonight to decisions that went against him was a striking contrast to Arteta\u2019s on Saturday.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Arteta behaved like a petulant, over-entitled child. Postecoglou behaved like an [intelligent], reflective leader. I know which of them I\u2019d want in charge of my club.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Former England striker Michael Owen wrote: &#8216;If every manager was this gracious our game wouldn\u2019t be in the mess it is.

It was the second of its kind this term after Liverpool demanded &#8216;escalation and resolution&#8217; in response to an error by VAR in their 2-1 defeat to Tottenham in September.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Neville wrote: &#8216;Arsenal and\u00a0Liverpool\u00a0&#8216;s statements are wrong.
