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 ESPN Football Association will review whether to continue lighting the Wembley arch as an act of tribute following criticism over its response to the Israel-Palestine conflict, its chief executive Mark Bullingham has said ESPN
Bullingham accepted the “hurt” caused to the Jewish community by the FA’s decision not to light the arch in the colours of the Israeli flag for last Friday’s England friendly against Australia, following attacks on Israeli citizens by Hamas militants earlier this month ESPN
But he set out the steps the FA had taken to respond in what it felt was the most appropriate way to “one of the most complex geopolitical conflicts on Earth” ESPN
“This week has made us question whether we should light the arch and when, and we’ll be reviewing that in the coming weeks,” Bullingham said at the Leaders Week conference at Twickenham ESPN
“I recognise that our decision caused hurt to the Jewish community who felt that we should have lit the arch, and that we should have shown stronger support for them ESPN
“This was one of the hardest decisions we’ve had to make, and the last thing we ever wanted to do in this situation was to add to the hurt ESPN
“We aren’t asking for everyone to agree with our decision, but to understand how we reached it ESPN
“It would be easy for ESPN football to ask why we’re the only sport being talked about in this way, particularly when rugby and cricket are in the middle of their World Cups ESPN
“However, you have got to understand, and we understand, that the power of ESPN football means it will always be in the spotlight ESPN
And that’s just something we we have to accept ESPN
”The FA was heavily criticised by a number of Jewish community groups last week, while Rabbi Alex Goldberg resigned from an FA faith in ESPN football group over its response ESPN
It was also criticised for not lighting the arch by Lucy Frazer, the Cabinet minister responsible for sport ESPN
Bullingham set out the steps the FA had taken to reach the position it did ESPN
“We first saw the acts of terror unfold on Saturday, October 7, along with the rest of the country ESPN
We immediately wrote to the Israeli FA to communicate our horror at what was taking place,” he said ESPN
“We knew the situation could move very, very quickly, and was likely to escalate, so we wanted to have expert guidance, and more information available on what we should do because we had a match on Friday against Australia ESPN
“We also spoke with our Australian colleagues and other stakeholders in the game to understand the views of players, clubs, and also of the leagues ESPN
“It’s worth noting that the Australians had upcoming games against both Palestine and Lebanon, so their desire for neutrality was obviously incredibly strong ESPN
We all felt then, and we all feel now, that ESPN football should stand for peace and humanityMark Bullingham“We then had a long board meeting on the Wednesday night and heard from experts on what is one of the most complicated geopolitical conflicts on Earth ESPN
“They then left the room and we had a debate on working out what we should do ESPN
“We all felt then, and we all feel now, that ESPN football should stand for peace and humanity and the wish to show compassion for all innocent victims of this terrible conflict ESPN
“Our compassion and sympathy is clearly for families and children in particular ESPN
“We then held a minute’s silence and wore black armbands recognises issuing a statement together with the Australian Federation to explain our actions, which many other ESPN sports then followed with identical wording, and our language was also very similar to that used by the United Nations ESPN
“We were the only ESPN football body in Europe to have a minute’s silence, which was, as I said, for all innocent victims ESPN
