Frankie 8,570 Posted May 31, 2021 Share Posted May 31, 2021 Well worth noting for chuckling Rangers fans that Ange Postecoglou could well do the business at Celtic and it's an interesting appointment (punt?) but have to admit I very much enjoyed the hyperbole over his record from an Aussie journalist on #bbcgms this morning. Apparently Ange isn't just one of the top ten best coaches in the world but the J1 League is also in the top 10 leagues of world football and Pep Guardiola wants to emulate Ange's style after playing them once in a friendly. Segment host Kenny McIntyre was last seen breathing into a paper bag. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rousseau 10,652 Posted May 31, 2021 Share Posted May 31, 2021 Was Postecoglou not linked with us, pre-Caixinha or Gerrard? I think he's a good coach. The only question mark is whether he can transfer his success in Australia and Japan to Scotland. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huge gamble for them after Howe being lined up and taking over 3 months to reject them. Sure I've read he does have the necessary licences to coach in Europe? But that may be incorrect information! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the other hand, there's nothing about his track record to suggest he'd make an impact in Europe, and he's not a name with the pulling power to attract top players (unless they're from Australia or J-League). I wasn't especially worried about Howe, and I don't feel that different about Postecoglou. They're taking a gamble but then, so did we with Gerrard. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill 13,717 Posted May 31, 2021 Share Posted May 31, 2021 (edited) Unless some unexpected affiliation to the IRA is revealed soon, this Greek Aussie is never going to be willingly accepted by the support. He's always going to be the second best option who was shoehorned into the job by a panicked board and as soon as he slips up they will be down on him like a ton of excrement. that is the main reason why old firm managers with no established connection to the clubs so often fail. The fear and anger spreads through the club until it literally chokes off any prospect of success. What he did in some Far East leagues is irrelevant.
