Tottenham defender Cristian Romero has hailed chairman Daniel Levy for making "all the correct decisions" in his efforts to bring the club closer to winning silverware.
Spurs remain without a trophy since 2008 but have since then finished as runners-up both in the Premier League and Champions League, though not since Mauricio Pochettino's managerial tenure ended four years ago.
Romero was not at the club for those near-misses but now, under Ange Postecoglou, believes silverware has never been closer.
"This season has started in the best way possible," he told SWM. "We are delighted that the club appointed a coach like Ange. It has been hugely important for everyone at the club, especially the young players. The club needed a coach with the same identity as its history.
"We have started well, but there is a long way to go. I am optimistic, of course, but it is a competitive league. As a professional, I want to win trophies and compete in the best competitions, but everything depends on our mentality.
"The club has a great atmosphere, and we are definitely getting closer to achieving our goals. If we continue to follow the right steps, things can only improve."
Romero added: "Winning trophies depends on many things, not just the players and coaching staff. The club has to be well organised, starting with the most important person, the President. He is the one who must make the right decisions so that the club is performing well in every aspect.
London will always be home for me and my family even when my career has ended.

"But we’re in the perfect position. The club has made all the correct decisions, from the coach to the sporting director and all the staff members. If they continue making these decisions and continue on this path, we will get closer to winning trophies."
Romero is considered one of the best defenders in the world, was named as one of the club's new vice-captain's by Postecoglou during the summer and has underlined his happiness at both Spurs and in London.
"I’ve been fortunate enough to live in a few different cities during my career, but nothing compares to London," the Argentine continued. "It’s a city with a brilliant story and, in my opinion, the world’s capital. I love the people here, the diversity and the history.

"I think London will always be home for me and my family even when my career has ended. The city will always hold a special place in my heart because my son, the most important person to me, was born here in London. We’re really happy here."
