Here is a tactics breakdown of Ange Postecoglu. Really similar to Slot.

Just listened to View from the Lane and they all agreed Nagelsmann isn't the right fit because he is overhearing, demanding and not always popular with the players. They said the club needs a unifying figure who is brilliant with people like Poch was.

It got me thinking about Postecoglu who seems this lovable character that everyone seems to like. I know he is a bit older and not the most fashionable but I wonder if he could be a good fit to rejuvenate and give confidence to our broken squad. With recruitment of course.

Just a thought.
I’d honestly have Postecoglou as my top target ahead of Slot, purely because I believe he is the most sure fire option we’ve been linked to (outside nagelsmann).

He’s prob the most unfashionable pick being from the SPL, and some people will hold the fact that he’s Australian against him. But tactically he’s fantastic and more importantly has had many years of experience to fine tune his tactics and also how he trains people to achieve those tactics.

As you noted, he’s a fantastic character and the players will take to him instantly and will definitely bring back a unity amongst the players that hasn’t been there for years.

With his character aswell, I’m sure he’ll turn the fans that are against him to his side in no time at all. I can remember Nuno winning over fans with a simple “we will make you proud” despite being the most dull manager we’ve ever had. Ange on the other hand is as big and likeable a character as you’ll find. Even more so than Martin Jol was.

He is incredibly highly regarded by the mega successful City Football Group from his time working for them, to the point where those in the know at Celtic fear that Ange would be one of Man City’s first phone-calls if Pep were ever to leave.

His early management style was moulded by a certain Ferenc Puskas, who was his last manager from his playing days. It was from him he became obsessed with all out attacking football, and has categorically refused to setup a team defensively ever since.

This has led to him getting a few hefty beatings in the champions league against the likes of Real Madrid, but his vigour to stand by his philosophy has to be respected.

It was while working as a manager for the City Football Group then that he was thought the ways of Pep football and he started to adjust his tactics to take some key philosophies off of Pep and implement them into his own, such as deploying inverted full backs.

Over the last decade, every club he has gone to he has been super successful if not dominant. His time managing Australia’s National team was very impressive. He’s obsessed with furthering his knowledge of managing constantly. He takes part in weekly video chats with some of the other leading Australian managers from other sports such as rugby, where they all share their ideas.

Apologies for the mega long post, but I’ve seen an awful lot of people be very disparaging about Postecoglou. And I truly feel if any of them took the time to properly look into him and his background, that their opinions would change drastically!

Good, detailed 'pitch for your man but I was amused by your opening reason that he was your top choice because he was the most ' sure fire option' that we have been linked to. What does that even mean ? 😄 Still , good recovery!😉

Haha yeah to be fair obviously nobody is a sure fire success, but I'm just basing him as to be the most likely based off his experience. He's had many consistent years of success to draw a sample size from in comparison to the likes of Slot and Alonso, who have a very small sample size to judge them on.

And if it was just that you weren't aware of what 'sure-fire' actually means, its defined as 'being certain to succeed' (y)

He does rather look the odd one out of the names being suggested as the favoured candidates. They are all of a type but , not so much if you throw in The likes of Rodgers, Potter, and Enrique ( please No) . The bookies clearly haven't a clue with Slot at 7/2 ( price drifting) and then nobody less than 8/1. All the signs of a shambolic situation to me but , perhaps I am wrong and we are just waiting until the end of the season?

Nah. I've never understood this idea that Levy "isn't a football man" and "doesn't get it".

The guy knows more about Tottenham Hotspur and football than everyone on this forum put together. He has part-owned a football club for 20 years. He knows it top from bottom. He's there every day. He has signed and sold over a hundred players. He knows and is known by everyone in football. He practically runs the Premier League. He is executive chairman of the European Club Association.

He has hundreds of millions of pounds invested in the club - if you're hurt when we lose, imagine how you'd feel if you were him watching the club you support go down the pan and have a fortune riding on!

If you think you know more about football than him, you're deluding yourself. In fact, it's just utterly laughable to think that you do. You are a fan, I am a fan. We are not in the game in the same way as he is, managers are and players are.

The problem isn't that he "isn't a football man" or "doesn't get it". The problem is that he hasn't been making the right choices and, certainly recently, hasn't been good at the football side of his job.

We need Levy to get a new DoF in who isn't a criminal and is better and who can take the whole lot off him.
Bring back the WTF emoji !!
