No.Do you have a Twitter profile with a Greek philosopher as your banner by any chance?

Are they saying this because they’ve heard something or are they just guessing based of the press? Not that it really matters just curious. I don’t think Kulu would tie into it, im sure Levy is just trying to lower the price as much as possible because he knows Juve aren’t in a great place atm and probably don’t want him back.Been on the Celtic forums, they all seem to think he is off. All mention about their striker Kyogo. 2 years left on his deal and will be joining him. May tie in with Kulu not being completed ?
I’ve seen people getting excited about Ange because there’s a video of him shouting at his team not to pass the ball back.
I have a video of 60000 spurs fans shouting this exact same thing week in week out for the last 4 years.
Ange doesn’t just play ‘good football’, his tactics are right at the cutting edge. Building on Pep’s ideas with his own tweaks to overcome the limitations of the players he has available to him.
He’s versatile, has played a number of formations successfully and everywhere he’s been (no matter what you may think of the leagues) he’s taken middle of the road teams to trophy winners.
This isn’t a “go out and run about a bit” manager, he is everything from a footballing style perspective we’ve been calling out for as a fanbase for 4 years.
I’m sick of hiring on reputation and past success, I want someone hungry to succeed with us. I want someone who sees this as their big chance and will give everything. We should be taking a risk - trying to be a budget Chelsea or City has got us nowhere. Let’s try something new. To Dare Is to Do ffs!!
A cursory glance at Google tells you that Vidigal has been jobless for 18 monthsNot sure how this post has so many likes. Even a cursory glance at Google tells you that Lito Vidigal an African football manager has managed and still does manage a decent team in Portugal. What about the suggestion BAME managers hardly get a chance? Patrick Viera, Chris Powell, Sol Campbell, Ruud Gullit, Paul Ince. I could go on.
Edit: Harry Kewell Australian. Managed Crawley, Notts County, Oldham and Barnet albeit not big euro jobs.
Ok I concede that but he was employed there all the same and that’s the point.A cursory glance at Google tells you that Vidigal has been jobless for 18 months
Big Ange would be great but a rolling 1 year contract for any new Manager would be an absolute disaster and show that we've learnt nothing from the Conte situation. We need a new long-term project and certainty not more uncertainty.Could well be couldn't it? Rolling one year contract so no compensation, low-ish wages compared to everyone else with a better CV and won't have enough credit in the bank from elsewhere to be making big demands.
Ticks a few boxes and is known by Munn. Have to say if it happens I'll back him but he's only held off the bottom of the pile of those linked by Rodgers for me.
Yep. Its a crazy doomed to fail mixture.And one man wants the cheapest option he can get away with.
Not to inflame but how many BAME players have there been in top 5 leagues in last 40 years compared to number in managerial coaching roles?Ok I concede that but he was employed there all the same and that’s the point.
So bored of all this now. Just sign someone and get on with it.
To be fair we're all repeating ourselves.This thread just goes round in circles.
Do none of you get bored discussing the same points 24/7?
I think he means his current contract with Celtic is a rolling 1 year deal.Big Ange would be great but a rolling 1 year contract for any new Manager would be an absolute disaster and show that we've learnt nothing from the Conte situation. We need a new long-term project and certainty not more uncertainty.
Daniel?I don't know a huge amount about Ange but he seems to play the football I like and I like the cut of his jib. He'll do.
Disproportionate amount granted but it’s not necessarily to do with racism or unconscious biases etc is it? But I’ll end my interest in this particular subject here as it’s quickly becoming off topic.Not to inflame but how many BAME players have there been in top 5 leagues in last 40 years compared to number in managerial coaching roles?
Keep seeing headlines like “Spurs to step up the chase for Postecoglou.”
Now I’m imagining Levy and Munn stalking him with a giant net. They’ve started slow, on tippy toes so as not to startle their prey. Now they’ve broken into one of those half run/half walk things and Ange is looking over his shoulder and starting to sweat.
The conspiracy theorist in me thinks maybe this is what Levy wants.... It is in his MO...... Nahhh he wouldn't would heIf you’d have told me AP would be our new manager a few weeks ago I’d have laughed you out of the building but im
starting to warm to the idea having looked in to his style of football and what the tactics connoisseurs think of him.
I think he’s gonna be able to handle himself well and this job will mean a lot to him.
Be nice to have a manger who isn’t an egotistical w***** in charge for a while too
