Ange Postecoglou's team talks are so inspirational that they make players 'want to run through a bowl of spaghetti and stick your head in it'.

That's according to Australia player Jackson Irvine, who starred for the Spurs boss while he was at the Socceroos and has praised Postecoglou's rhetorical gifts.

Postecoglou has Spurs at the top of the Premier League and has received widespread acclaim for the way he communicates with players and fans.

Irvine, who plays for bohemian club FC St. Pauli in Germany's second tier, revealed that he even did his Australia team-talks early because they were so stimulating that they might get players dismissed.
