Postecoglou’s coaching staff

Probably just 2+2 because he's fleeing Israel.

I can think of a few other boot room candidates who'd maybe be a better fit (re Keane's reputation as a bit of a good times ringleader). Vertonghen, Dawson and Davies all have A licences now
 
We can confirm the following changes to the Club’s coaching staff ahead of the 2024/25 season.

Matt Wells has been promoted to Senior Assistant Coach, replacing Chris Davies, who was appointed Birmingham City manager earlier this month. A former Academy player, Matt was previously Assistant Coach having returned to the Club in April, 2023.

We are also delighted to welcome Nick Montgomery and Sergio Raimundo to the Club – both of whom join as Assistant Coaches and will begin work at the start of pre-season. Sergio’s appointment is subject to a work permit.

As a player, Nick made more than 500 appearances for Sheffield United, Millwall, Central Coast Mariners and Wollongong Wolves. Since retiring, he has served Central Coast Mariners and Scottish side Hibernian as Head Coach.

Sergio has previously coached in seven countries across four continents, for clubs including Hibernian, Central Coast Mariners and Benfica.
They join Ryan Mason (Assistant Coach), Mile Jedinak (Assistant Coach) and Rob Burch (First Team Goalkeeping Coach) on the Club’s coaching staff.

Head Coach Ange Postecoglou said: “I’m delighted that Matt has been appointed Senior Assistant Coach. He’s an outstanding young coach who has a great work ethic and attention to detail. He thoroughly deserves this opportunity.

“It’s also great to have Nick and Sergio join the Club, and they will add to the talented coaches we already have on the staff here.

“Both Nick and Sergio have a wealth of coaching experience over a number of years. They have already demonstrated a strong desire to both develop young talent and implement a football style that I believe will further strengthen the environment we have established. I’m looking forward to working with them.”
 
It's not really a "big blow" to lose Chris Davies; Ange is always happy for his coaches to go on to bigger and better things. He knows that if Spurs do well, his coaching staff will be enticed elsewhere. He wants that to happen, he wants Aussie coaches to get chances at bigger and better things.
The beauty of Ange's system is that he is not wedded to his coaches, he changes them all the time and each new coach brings new ideas and freshness.

Heard in training each coach gets 15 mins with the players. They set the training. Means it keeps the coaches and players on their toes.

How it works in practice i'm not sure.
 
Thanks for posting that clip of Sergio at Hibs, he looks like a very smart, disciplined guy. Not many coaches have service experience, that's for sure, plus multi-lingual, hopefully he'll be great.
 
Alex Ferguson made a habit of changing his assistant coaches over the years. Maybe it was because they were lured to higher positions elsewhere based on their Man U experience or maybe Ferguson just wanted fresh voices delivering his messages to the players. Either way, seemed to be a successful practice. Is Pochettino's loyalty to his core group of coaches his undoing?

More to do with his absolutely awful job choices post-Spurs.

I agree
The need for fresh voices was missed by him
