Spurs make the journey to Istanbul for Thursday's (07.11.24) Europa League clash with a number of players out injured but the manager is fascinated to see how his side copes with a hostile crowd in Turkey.

Postecoglou said: "I’m sure that they’re all looking forward to it. That’s why you play football.

"Especially with this generation, a lot of them have experienced what football is like without supporters. You certainly don’t like that when we went through Covid.

"We’re looking forward to it. It’s a fantastic stadium, the supporters create an unbelievable atmosphere here, they love the big European nights.

"They’re a very, very good team. It’s exactly the kind of game you want to be involved in in Europe, whether you’re young, you’re old, irrespective of the role you have, you look forward to it.

"Galatasaray at their home stadium, with the fans behind them, there is a great energy in all their games so it’s a great test for us and one we’re looking forward to.

"We’re in good form, playing good football ourselves and hopefully it should be a good game."

Postecoglou has made changes to his team for Tottenham's European games so far and is set to do so again as the team look to maintain their perfect start in the competition.

He said: "Through the Europa League we’ve rotated the team.

"We are playing three games a week at the moment, have been since the start of the year and we’ve used pretty much all our squad, but that’s worked well because players have come in and been fit.

"We’ll make changes tomorrow night but again it’s about making sure we have a team out there we believe can match the opposition and get a result for us."
