👨🏼‍💼 Ange Postecoglou - Manager Thread

Real Deal said:
Hi guy's, it's been a while. Thought I would pop on after recent performances. I could see this coming months ago, it's why I have stopped coming on.

I like Ange, but we have to be honest with our opinions if you like someone or not.

It doesn't matter if we have King and Dembele in this team, you will concede 60 plus goals every season with this suicidal high line every game.

I can't see Ange changing, which means only one outcome. Getting sacked next season.

Good manager's and coaches have figured him out.

Ange adapt or perish.

After a great start it's a crying shame what's happened, but I think what you said sums it up well.

My Celtic mate says those rumours were just based on him saying its nice that Rodgers likes having lunch with the players whereas Ange clearly has no interest in being their mate... we were even linked to him a few months back.

O’Riley suggested that replacement Brendan Rodgers had brought ‘openness’ to Celtic and his willingness to sit and chat with players was ‘a nice, refreshing kind of change’.

Those comments were interpreted as a dig at Postecoglou, with O’Riley then forced to deny any issues between himself and the now-Spurs boss.

O’Riley later stated that his comments were ‘blown out of proportion’ and he was just appreciating a different managerial style.

The Dane added that Postecoglou is the manager he has learned the most from, ultimately becoming ‘so much better’ as a player.

OK, makes sense.

Surely MoR is way too good for SPL. Also, surely the time has passed where Ange is allowed to go back and raid his old club.

We're stuck with one Danish midfielder for the time being. The other 2 are not bad choices to be considering. MoR is one, and so is Morten Hjulmand at Sporting CP.

I'm wondering if his persistant cough is more a nervous affliction than a medical issue as such. It does seem more prevalent in pre and post match interviews.

I was nagging someone who worked for me last year consistently for a similar cough, 3 times he went to his GP , and was told his chest was clear, these 'bugs' just go around and it would clear up.

Eventually, I told him to just get his GP to recommend upper body x-rays and scans - and see a specialist, as our Private medical insurance would pay. So despite the GP's chagrin, he did it , he was annoyed I forced him to do it, but I told him his coughing was driving me nuts.

It was almost exactly like Ange's.

It turned out he had a tumour the size of a large orange on his upper intestines. He was operated on straight away to remove it and has now finished the follow up chemo etc and fingers crossed been given the all clear.

So, persistent coughing can also be a symptom of something much nastier., so as I said before, I hope he's getting the right medical attention - as his coughing is not normal in my view, it's gone on all season.
 
Seen a few people say the cough is a nervous tick... hoping it's not something more serious and underlying.

My aunt had a "chronic" cough for over a year that really bothered her. Doctors said that the lining of her throat was permanently damaged and there was nothing they could do for it and she'd have to learn to live with it.

Much later she got pneumonia, was rushed to hospital and was treated with strong antibiotics about a month ago. Cough miraculously disappeared.
 
It can be something quite simple. I went to see my GP a few years back because I had a persistent dry irritable cough, he did some obvious checks and then told me it might sound odd but he was going to prescribe me medication for acid reflux. He explained that the reflux could cause an irritation resulting in a cough so to give the treatment a go. Hey presto, he was right, within a few days of taking the meds the cough had gone.

From day 1, when I spent sometime posting on his tactical play, I said this was just as likely to result in attractive football with us scoring more than the opposition or we'd come undone in some games if we didn't adapt..

As his system if play is played by better players and or players who have adapted better, I think we'll see less bad surprises. But only time will tell.

But I still see no reason to doubt that his approach isn't yet a winning one.

Next season and after the summer business, I'd bet our future will look much clearer.

The general consensus or have we panicked?

That's what will drive us forward for sure. Lack of commitment to the cause. That always works.

As long as his commitment and his bosses is intact, nothing else matters, IF it shows where it does matter: on the pitch.

The paying fans are at the moment very unsure, Four very bad results have left them disheartened, but only because of what he has said and what he has done and the results since.

Now he and the surrounding team need to deliver, that will regenerate the enthusiasm and faith that so many had in him early season.
