Ahead of Liverpool's Premier League clash at Spurs this weekend, Slot heaped praise on the Australian and spoke about the "important" decisions both roles have to make.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>He told reporters: "I really have to give them credit because if I look at Tottenham, and I do come from Holland but I did watch a lot of Match of the Day and I think about David Ginola, Paul Gascoigne, Glen Hoddle,&nbsp;Luka Modric, Gareth Bale, they've always been a certain brand and identity for me, and Postecoglou gives them that identity back completely."</p><p>Slot added: "I've said so many positive things about Ange and his style so if I say another thing it seems like I am his agent. But I also like how he presents himself in the media. He always finds a different way of saying things, so I heard his remark where he said managers are judged every weekend. I think it is right that people talk about the decisions managers make more than the decisions than a Prime Minister makes, that is definitely true. But it's also true that the decisions a Prime Minister has to make are a bit more important than the ones we have to make."</p>

WHAT ARNE SLOT SAID

<p>Premier League managers are under intense pressure to perform and whenever a team's results take a turn for the worse, they are the first to be given the boot. But their roles are a different kind of pressure than running an entire country. Either way, both teams could do with a positive result this weekend; with Liverpool hoping to pull clear at the top and 10th-placed Tottenham seeking to climb up the table.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Tottenham and Liverpool will face off twice in quick succession as after their Premier League clash on Sunday, they take on each other in the Carabao Cup semi-finals in early January.</p>
