Tottenham's upcoming trip to Coventry City suddenly feels like a big game as Ange Postecoglou's leadership comes under scrutiny.

Of course, it is early days in the season but just one win from his first four Premier League matches has left Spurs needing results by mid-September.

Meanwhile, after a series of relaxed and fun news conferences, the Australian's post-match comments after the 1-0 defeat by Arsenal were fractious.

There may also be questions about Cristian Romero's sharing of an Argentine journalist's social media post pointing out that Spurs didn't book him a private jet when returning from international duty and that he arrived back either tired or ill.

Not one to suffer fools lightly, Postecoglou could continue his combative streak or seek to lighten the mood and highlight these are just early days in the season.

Either way, it will be a temperature check on the north Londoners and how people are feeling behind the scenes following Sunday's disappointing derby.
