Good on ya mate!
Richly deserved, and apart from it being Spurs, it is wonderful for the A league to see what is surely its greatest coaching export hit the Premier League.
Created the great Roarcelona team and then doubled down with the false 9 at Melbourne Victory, with Thompson and Rojas.
Hope he spanks some of the impostors and it is fantastic to look at the managerial talent he is rightly rubbing shoulders with. Guess we’ll see! Come on Ange!

Is he the only A league export currently in the PL? Phhhh…

Will be interesting to see if Ange deems any Aussie players good enough to sign for Spurs.
I can't think of any that jump out.

Cameron Peupion played 1 EPL game for Brighton this season, he came thru Sydney's Academy & they bought him before he made an A-League debut. So kinda counts as an export?

Unlikely. He only had Mooy (still a class act) at Celtic. Most SPL teams seem to have 2-3 Aussies!

I think Tom Rogic left Celtic in Ange's first season there.

James McGarry! 

I think maybe only Mooy, but he’d unlikely see many minutes. Didn’t really follow him at Celtic so don’t know how much he’s dropped off. If he didn’t try to take them to Celtic, they won’t get a call for Spurs.
