👨🏼‍💼 Ange Postecoglou - Manager Thread

I like the man, I can see why Levy gave him the job.

No BS, honest as the day is long and a total underdog throughout his whole life..

A straight talking no BS kind of guy in these kind of roles are very hard to find nowadays. We're extremely fortunate to have him.

 

[meee93]

We will take a hammering or two with how we defend, but it's hard not to back this guy. He just seems to completely encapsulate what our club means

5th favourite to take over from Klopp and odds getting shorter. Apparently he’s a Liverpool fan. Hopefully builds enough love for Spurs that that’s irrelevant if that opportunity arises in the future.

I was reading an article this morning which, almost indicating surprise at Ange’s success to date, recounted that he was managing in the Japanese league just over 2 years ago. It seemed a denigration of the Japanese league and irs managers. It came to my mind that one Arsenal Wenger was also plucked from the Japanese league I believe by the other lot up the road. He wasn’t too shabby if my memory serves me correctly! No reason why Ange should be either!

Oh well, best start looking for a new manager then!


From Sky:

Where will Ange be at 76 years old? 'On a Greek island'​

Tottenham head coach Ange Postecoglou hails the career of Crystal Palace manager Roy Hodgson but says, unlike him, he has no plans to still be coaching at the age of 76.

Fair enough. He can retire from Tottenham at 75

All I put was – For the last eight years I have had very strong convictions as a Spurs supporter. Shit!! That explains a lot. The bastard was an Arsenal supporter!

It was only supposed to be a day trip to Brighton.

I'm going to try and grab 3 hours sleep before the game starts at 2:30am.

Don't forget we revert to GMT on Sunday morning so you'll be back to 8 hours ahead for the following games.

Doesn’t Ange own it?!!!

Here with humble pie!
I was critical of us hiring a guy I’d barely heard of, that had no discernible top flight pedigree, no big enticing name & seemed to be 10th on a list of managers that the first 9 or so had “rejected” us.

I was fearful of what this season would bring, including having a GK in place that didn’t instil any faith during pre-season. Then we had the loss of Harry with no replacement. The concern was huge!

Happily I’ve been proven well & truly wrong! From the first game onwards, we’ve been amazing to watch. We’ve played the type of football I love, that’s the spurs identify. I love Postecoglu’s candid, transparent & friendly approach to engagement. He’s direct but considered in the things he says but it’s all rooted in building identity & culture.

The guy seems to have been made for our club & I’ve been bowled over by him so far. We have hurdles to cross & bumps to experience but it’s been years since our fan base was so united. Long may it continue!

Now off to get a form for my pie!!
