Ange Postecoglou has spoken for the first time since leaving Celtic for Tottenham.
The 57-year-old joined Spurs on a four-year deal earlier this week, bringing his two year spell in Glasgow to an end.
He left off the back of delivering the club's eighth treble, and five trophies out of the six available to him during his time in Scotland.
The Australian is now excited about the challenge ahead as a Premier League manager, as he delivered a message to the Spurs fans.
He said: "Hi everyone, it's great to finally get started as manager of this great football club.

"Hopefully a team that you can all be proud of and more importantly get excited by, I can assure you that right through pre-season we won't leave any stone unturned, myself, the staff, the players, to make sure that when the league comes around you'll all be as excited as I am about the season ahead.
"I really look forward to seeing everyone at the stadium in particular at our first home game, and I look forward to the journey ahead."

Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
