Postecoglou: Spurs does 'crazy things' to people
- Ange Postecoglou's Tottenham faces Bodo/Glimt in the Europa League semi-final second leg on Thursday in Norway, holding a 3-1 lead from the first match.
- The UEFA rule since 2014-15 grants Europa League winners a Champions League spot even if their Premier League finish is poor, sparking a debate led by Arsene Wenger.
- Former Arsenal manager and FIFA head Wenger criticized this rule, arguing Spurs and Manchester United should not qualify for the Champions League through the Europa League.
- Postecoglou dismissed Wenger's stance as 'crazy,' laughed off the criticism, and expressed respect for Wenger while noting the ongoing contentious debate over eight days.
- If Spurs secure the title, it would mark their first major European silverware in over four decades and grant them a spot in the Champions League despite likely finishing 16th in the Premier League.
