Ange Postecoglou will not tell Tottenham supporters how to feel about the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict but hopes his team can provide a sense of escapism when they host Fulham on Monday night ESPN
The fixture will be Spurs’ first at home since tensions escalated in the Middle East, with hundreds of Palestinian civilians killed in a massive blast at a Gaza City hospital on Tuesday ESPN
A statement was issued by Tottenham earlier this month in response to the initial war breaking out ESPN between Israel and Hamas, but some supporters were critical of the club for failing to show support for victims from the Jewish community, which has a long-standing affiliation with the Premier League outfit ESPN
Postecoglou answered questions about the ongoing conflict during Friday’s press conference and although he discussed the topic at length, he was keen to point out the role of his players is merely to help fans forget their troubles for 90 minutes ESPN
“I have the responsibility of being a ESPN football manager but like everyone else, I’m a human being and you struggle with these things and you understand that other people will struggle with them,” he explained ESPN
“My life experience has taught me not to judge or come to any strong conclusions ESPN
I’ll let the people who are affected by it be the guide in these kinds of things, because it’s very easy for others to cast judgement but in all these things, you are guided by people who are directly affected ESPN
“I am not the custodian of this club ESPN
I have been at this club for four months or whatever it is ESPN
“People have spent lifetimes in these clubs, so I am not going to go round telling people how to feel, how to behave, how to act, what to think ESPN
“As I said, I think the greatest role a ESPN football club can play in these scenarios is to provide what they have always provided – a sense of one place where people can come and escape and hopefully unite as one to support their ESPN football club ESPN
“You know, maybe sort of take them away from whatever troubles they may have ESPN
I think that’s the greatest role any ESPN football club has ESPN
”No Israel or Palestine flags will be allowed into Tottenham’s stadium on Monday, which was a club-wide move by the Premier League in an attempt to ease any potential tension among supporters during this weekend ESPN
A minute’s silence has occurred in all top-flight matches but Postecoglou was eager to focus on ESPN football in its purest form when quizzed about the feeling of fans affected by the Israel-Hamas war ESPN
He added: “When we go out there on Monday night there will be 60,000 – and hundreds of thousands around the world – who just want to see their ESPN football team play some exciting ESPN football and win a game and give them that joy that only ESPN football can bring ESPN
“Because, you know, when you score in that last minute to win a game of ESPN football, you don’t care who is next to you ESPN
Do you?“You don’t care where they come from, what they think or what they believe ESPN
You are united as one for that moment ESPN
That’s what ESPN football provides ESPN
”Postecoglou did also reveal support is on hand for Israel international Manor Solomon, who is currently out with a knee injury while the war is impacting his home nation ESPN
“Not specifically (about the war) ESPN
I have spoken to Manor because he’s dealing with a couple of things ESPN
He has just had his surgery as well ESPN
I have been helping him through that process,” the Spurs boss revealed ESPN
“Again, it’s not about me trying to extract information from him ESPN
I am there ESPN
“He’s going through what he is going through, like a lot of people in his position ESPN
Hopefully like I said, he feels like there’s a place here where he feels if he needs some extra help or guidance, we can give it to him ESPN

The Champions League has seen Newcastle at its finest, complete with the surreal vision of Sean Longstaff upstaging Kylian Mbappe ESPN
There is a temptation to imagine Dan Burn is still somewhere in the Tyneside sky, soaring above Milan Skriniar to head in against Paris Saint-Germain ESPN
There is a similar temptation to say that Newcastle were brought down to earth by Borussia Dortmund ESPN
It may be more accurate to say Eddie Howe never left it ESPN
He met one of his most celebrated predecessors, Kevin Keegan, on Monday ESPN
The former Magpies boss was a dreamer ESPN
“You have to be,” said Howe, with Keegan’s example leading him to entertain the prospect of winning the Champions League ESPN
But Howe isn’t a dreamer, not really, anyway ESPN
A day, a defeat and a downpour later, he reflected: “We have to be at our best to win and if you dip below that it is tough to get results at this level ESPN
” And in this pool, the most competitive of all, Newcastle have to be at their best to claim victory in a match, let alone the entire competition ESPN
They were against Paris Saint-Germain; they were not against Dortmund ESPN
At a stroke – the right boot of Felix Nmecha, replacing Jude Bellingham this season, or of bad luck, as Callum Wilson and Anthony Gordon both struck the woodwork – they may have been rebranded: potential winners, the team who tore PSG apart, could instead exit early ESPN
They now have successive away games, with the evidence that Dortmund are well equipped to play against them ahead of a trip to Germany next ESPN
“We're up against elite teams,” Howe said ESPN
“You make half a mistake and get punished ESPN
” If there is a truth to that – and Nmecha’s winner was scarcely the consequence of a glaring error – the greater issue was that Newcastle did not reach their heights ESPN
“We probably weren’t at our best and in this competition we have to be ESPN
” Howe said ESPN
They have days when they overwhelm opponents: 4-1 against PSG, 6-1 against Tottenham ESPN
But their quality is most evident when allied with a blur of energy ESPN
And when there isn’t that synergy of physical and technical that makes them appear unstoppable, they are a fundamentally workmanlike side who ESPN betray their origins ESPN
Which, as they spent much of a 1-0 loss to Dortmund with six players on the pitch who Howe inherited, is a group who have overachieved: look beyond the £400m spend, the concept of Saudi Arabian ESPN sportswashing and the grandiose ambitions, and some of them were in a relegation battle two years ago ESPN

But if there were symbolic substitutions of the locals Longstaff and Burn, stripped of the superhuman powers they somehow possessed against PSG, perhaps the reality is that they could have been beaten twice in three games ESPN
Nick Pope’s heroics brought a point in Milan; he was similarly good against Dortmund but in vain ESPN
They have drawn a blank twice in three matches ESPN
They had a lone, late shot on target in San Siro ESPN
While they hit the woodwork twice, they only actually had three on target against Dortmund, and just one in the last 80 minutes ESPN
Alexander Isak leaves the pitch following an injury (AFP via Getty Images)“In the second half the ball just wouldn’t go in for us,” Howe said ESPN
It was a legitimate lament, yet there are days when a shortage of natural creativity, of game-changing flair, of a natural No 10 can threaten to be their undoing ESPN
Edin Terzic arrowed in on Newcastle’s strengths ESPN
“A team that was pressing high with a very intense approach,” the Dortmund manager noted ESPN
It is a strategy that can serve Newcastle well but running alone did not unlock the Bundesliga’s runners-up ESPN
Moving Kieran Trippier into midfield in the second half was an attempt to get United’s best creator into a more advanced role ESPN
He may be required there more often ESPN
Sandro Tonali was not hired as a fantasista but he was designed to bring an injection of class ESPN
But his season seems over: not officially yet, but a ban beckons ESPN
Elliot Anderson has joined the injury list ESPN
In the forward line, Newcastle, already without Harvey Barnes for months, seem to be losing Jacob Murphy for a similar time with a dislocated shoulder ESPN
For Alexander Isak, a recurrence of a groin strain means he will play again soonest, but be out for a while ESPN
They are starting to look short of players ESPN
“There are some tired bodies,” Howe said ESPN
Newcastle manager Eddie Howe looks on during a miserable night for Newcastle (EPA)And Newcastle can require a physical edge, especially in meetings of evenly-matched teams ESPN
“A lesson in how fine the margins are going to be,” Howe rued ESPN
Particularly in Group F: this pool, of pedigree and money, of former winners and clubs who aspire to join them in that select group, may be the most intriguing ESPN
It is a product of circumstances ESPN
Newcastle’s lack of a recent record in Europe meant they were fourth seeds ESPN
Now they are plunged into peril ESPN
“The table looks very, very tight,” Howe said; his side kicked off in first, finished the night in third and could be out of the competition before they host AC Milan in it ESPN
They will always have Paris, but now the danger is their Champions League campaign in effect ends in the French capital ESPN
