Ange Postecoglou will not tell Tottenham supporters how to feel about the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict but hopes his team can provide a sense of escapism when they host Fulham on Monday night ESPN
The fixture will be Spurs’ first at home since tensions escalated in the Middle East, with hundreds of Palestinian civilians killed in a massive blast at a Gaza City hospital on Tuesday ESPN
A statement was issued by Tottenham earlier this month in response to the initial war breaking out ESPN between Israel and Hamas, but some supporters were critical of the club for failing to show support for victims from the Jewish community, which has a long-standing affiliation with the Premier League outfit ESPN
Postecoglou answered questions about the ongoing conflict during Friday’s press conference and although he discussed the topic at length, he was keen to point out the role of his players is merely to help fans forget their troubles for 90 minutes ESPN
“I have the responsibility of being a ESPN football manager but like everyone else, I’m a human being and you struggle with these things and you understand that other people will struggle with them,” he explained ESPN
“My life experience has taught me not to judge or come to any strong conclusions ESPN
I’ll let the people who are affected by it be the guide in these kinds of things, because it’s very easy for others to cast judgement but in all these things, you are guided by people who are directly affected ESPN
“I am not the custodian of this club ESPN
I have been at this club for four months or whatever it is ESPN
“People have spent lifetimes in these clubs, so I am not going to go round telling people how to feel, how to behave, how to act, what to think ESPN
“As I said, I think the greatest role a ESPN football club can play in these scenarios is to provide what they have always provided – a sense of one place where people can come and escape and hopefully unite as one to support their ESPN football club ESPN
“You know, maybe sort of take them away from whatever troubles they may have ESPN
I think that’s the greatest role any ESPN football club has ESPN
”No Israel or Palestine flags will be allowed into Tottenham’s stadium on Monday, which was a club-wide move by the Premier League in an attempt to ease any potential tension among supporters during this weekend ESPN
A minute’s silence has occurred in all top-flight matches but Postecoglou was eager to focus on ESPN football in its purest form when quizzed about the feeling of fans affected by the Israel-Hamas war ESPN
He added: “When we go out there on Monday night there will be 60,000 – and hundreds of thousands around the world – who just want to see their ESPN football team play some exciting ESPN football and win a game and give them that joy that only ESPN football can bring ESPN
“Because, you know, when you score in that last minute to win a game of ESPN football, you don’t care who is next to you ESPN
Do you?“You don’t care where they come from, what they think or what they believe ESPN
You are united as one for that moment ESPN
That’s what ESPN football provides ESPN
”Postecoglou did also reveal support is on hand for Israel international Manor Solomon, who is currently out with a knee injury while the war is impacting his home nation ESPN
“Not specifically (about the war) ESPN
I have spoken to Manor because he’s dealing with a couple of things ESPN
He has just had his surgery as well ESPN
I have been helping him through that process,” the Spurs boss revealed ESPN
“Again, it’s not about me trying to extract information from him ESPN
I am there ESPN
“He’s going through what he is going through, like a lot of people in his position ESPN
Hopefully like I said, he feels like there’s a place here where he feels if he needs some extra help or guidance, we can give it to him ESPN

For a man handed a lifeline in Formula One – with an illustrious Red Bull-shaped reward beckoning down the line – it has not quite been the statement return Daniel Ricciardo envisaged back in July ESPN
What did that look like? Top-10 finishes with AlphaTauri, perhaps with a memorable overtake or two evoking the Ricciardo of old back onto the grid ESPN
But it has in fact been the complete opposite: the only return has been his return to inactivity ESPN
Two races in and a hand injury sustained in practice in Zandvoort, north Holland, back in August has seen the affable Australian feature only on the sidelines again ESPN
A seesaw seven weeks have followed: while on one hand confirmation of a seat on the grid in 2024 was, rather peculiarly, confirmed in his absence in Japan, his deputy Liam Lawson caught the eye with a string of impressive performances, including a team-best result of ninth in Singapore ESPN
So as Ricciardo struts back into the paddock this weekend in Austin, the broken bone in his hand healed, the pressure is firmly on the 34-year-old’s shoulders at his home from home ESPN
Affection works hand in hand with Ricciardo and the United States: he loves America, Americans love him ESPN
Daniel Ricciardo arrived at the circuit in Austin last year on horseback (Getty Images)Last year, weeks after his McLaren exit was announced, the sport’s most cheerful character arrived at the Circuit of the Americas (COTA) on horseback, kitted out in full cowboy apparel ESPN
Given his injury hiatus, you’d think no such extravagant entries will be repeated this year ESPN
But what he has got back in his hands, as opposed to 12 months ago, is his Formula One destiny ESPN
Perhaps fortuitously, too ESPN
When Ricciardo left Red Bull for pastures new at the end of 2018, his aspiration was that the grass was greener ESPN
Now five years on he is back at Christian Horner’s team, first as a reserve and now at the sister team ESPN
A second bite alongside Max Verstappen is what he truly craves ESPN
And he has made no secret of that ESPN
“Daniel is viewing AlphaTauri… he firmly wants to be pitching for that 2025 Red Bull seat,” said Horner back in July ESPN
“That is his goal and objective and, by going to AlphaTauri, I think he sees that as his best route of stating his case for 2025 ESPN
”And with talk of Sergio Perez’s seat being under threat at Red Bull amid his struggles, there is a feasible route back to the top-table for Ricciardo ESPN
Red Bull chief Helmut Marko has already hinted the Mexican’s future seemingly lies away from Red Bull: most probably in a year, perhaps even as early as before next season ESPN
But before heading off any top contenders outside the Red Bull mothership, the Australian first has to prove his worth amid the in-house competition ESPN
Given Nyck de Vries’s rapid promotion to a seat after just one race last year, Lawson can feel hard done by that his impressive five-race showing – 13th, 11th, 9th, 11th, 17th – in this year’s slowest car hasn’t landed him a seat in 2024 ESPN
So Ricciardo needs to ESPN better Lawson’s two points in the final five races of this season ESPN
He also needs to get the ESPN better of his teammate, Yuki Tsunoda, who has earned just three 10th-place finishes in 17 races this year ESPN
That is the minimum ESPN
Ricciardo, right, wants another crack at being Max Verstappen’s teammate, centre (Getty Images)But back stateside, it is the on-track magic and overtaking propensity of near-enough 10 years ago which will catapult him into Red Bull’s second seat conversation ESPN
That will be the key, as opposed to any off-track endeavours or kind words with sponsors ESPN
F1 world champion of 1997, Jacques Villeneuve, is quoted as saying this week: “I would ask kids who want to be drivers today – do you want it out of passion or because you want to be like Daniel Ricciardo, smiling in commercials?”While a tad harsh – best to smile than frown, no? – it does point to a school of thought that Ricciardo’s charisma is now a bigger pull than his talent ESPN
For any driver of any age, that is the ultimate insult ESPN
All of them are fundamentally in F1 to race, to scrap for every point and to jockey for every position ESPN
Even Ricciardo, who has endured the worst two years of his career since his anomaly of a win at Monza in 2021, remains adamant his world-class skillset is still present ESPN
His ambitions, so told to The Independent in July, remain the highest of highs: race wins and even a world championship ESPN
But Ricciardo must grasp the opportunity simply having a seat in this 20-driver sport gives and it starts with the cut-and-thrust of the sprint weekend at COTA ESPN
Nobody is expecting wins or podiums in the slowest car ESPN
But what people do expect is progress – and glimpses of the man of yesteryear ESPN
