Postecoglou guided Australia to the Asian Cup title on home soil in 2015 after his Socceroos side beat a South Korea team featuring Son in the final. "So I rank it pretty highly, I think it's pretty important. A lot of European people think the Euros are pretty important - well, it's the same for the Asian Cup or the African Cup of Nations." Still a proud Australian, Postecoglou could not resist a cheeky dig at the Tottenham captain. The Asian Cup takes place from Jan. 12 to Feb. 10 in Qatar.
