Manager Watch: Ange Postecoglou

[Snarfalicious]

Great post & totally agree.

An Aussie who’s followed Ange’s career, said to me recently, ‘What you don’t understand is he hasn’t even got started yet.’

He’s going to marry all our moms next, isn’t he?

Press conference is at 1pm so we should get clarification of who is fit and available for selection one would hope.

With Ange there is no smoke and mirrors, so if he is asked he will answer.

Still not sure anyone really picked up on the fact that Postecoglu picked Brennan Johnson for his debut start away in the North London Derby, he had other options but he said bugger it I'm playing him which shows a level of balls I doubt certain previous managers would have done.

It is a welcome change to buy players to improve the squad and actually just...use the player. None of this waiting for them to "come into our idea of football" for 6 months nonsense.

It’s getting to the point now where everyone is rolling around on the floor laughing at everything he says. He could just say “mate” and people are cracking up.

I find it a bit cringey how reporters are trying to engineer banter conversations with him. As much as Ange has a strong sense of humour, he's there to talk about the football, and not about what he recommends for people's fantasy teams or about recent podcasts etc.

Your point?

Your point?

I wish everyone would go back to hating us.

The guy wasn't doing that at all though was he. You can't seriously think he was trying to get a tip for his fantasy football team.

It was blatantly what he thought was a 'clever' way of getting something out of him where perhaps others had failed. The only cringey part was how transparent and lame it was. Well, I thought it was transparent/lame anyway

It's sad that any grown man has a fantasy football team
