Most clubs want to turn their ground into a “fortress”, but Ange Postecoglou joked that Tottenham is “becoming a nightclub”.
The mood is high at Tottenham as Spurs top the Premier League standings amid their unbeaten start to the season, with Crystal Palace next up on Saturday (AEDT).
Postecoglou has enjoyed a record-breaking start to life in England, with the Australian legend’s haul of 23 points from nine games the most of any Premier League manager in their opening nine matches.

After their 2-0 win over Fulham, ‘Islands in the Stream’ by Dolly Parton and Kenny Rogers has been heard pumping inside the dressing rooms.
Asked about the post-match music and who Tottenham’s DJ is in the dressing room, Postecoglou smiled and said: “Ah mate, I’ve got no idea.
“And I stay out of the dressing room partly because of the music choices of the players.
“Most clubs want to turn their grounds into a fortress – ours is becoming a nightclub, mate.
“I’m all for it, whatever makes people happy that’s my thing.”
Postecoglou is loving his time at the Premier League leaders, but is bullish about what expectations should be despite the club’s lengthy trophy drought.
Spurs have not won silverware since 2008, although fans are dreaming of challenging for the title after winning 23 points from a possible 27 so far this season.
It has taken Tottenham to the top-flight summit and they could move five points clear of Manchester City and Arsenal with victory at Crystal Palace on Friday, ahead of the weekend fixtures.
