And I hoped Mourinho was the last manager we had with weirdo fanboys.

From what I have seen, the extreme negativity from some fans is bringing out others to defend Ange in unrealistic ways. He might not be everyone's first choice but he's a proven winner everywhere he has gone. Time to support him and hope that trend continues.

I'm just happy we are moving to attacking ideas and away from the anti-football in Jose or Conte.

past 5 yrs have sucked the soul out of me, seeing kane go coupled with average signings this summer has left me deflated

we had the nuno situation, but really only conte was available so i excuse it, this one is worse because there were better managers available and to go 60 odd days to appoint ange. you would have to go as far back as the 90's with gross to feel this level of deflated.

he might be good who knows but kane going and hoping rich takes the mantle, this summer could perhaps be defining on whether we are finish mid table(or worse).


also with this whole Australian tour and munn being buddys this stinks of marketing

He was managing another team. It's not like he was available and it took us 60 days to sign him. Ffs, what's the matter with some of you people. Just blinkered narrative after blinkered narrative.

And yeah, you're totally right about appointing an Australian so we can make inroads in that country, because that's really where the money is in football, isn't it? They've just been waiting for years for an English club to appoint Ange so they can start throwing their money at it.

The state of logical reasoning of some people...

I know logic isn’t really your thing but do you honestly think a tightwad like Levy is going to risk damaging a multi-billion pound asset for a commercial opportunity in a country of 25 million that calls its national team ‘Socceroos’ and football is probably about as popular as crocodile hunting?

Come on, mate, of course he will appoint a no-name manager so he can go balls into the Australian market because, you know, he appointed an Australian to be CFO ergo must be to capture the lucrative Australian market. Are you fucking blind?

Loved the quote "Everyone has the ability to perform well, but everyone also has the fragility not to."

I don't know how his tactics will hold up, but if anyone can get a team through a rough patch, he seems to be the guy. In all the clips I've seen of him he seems to connect on such a human level, beyond what I have seen or heard from any other manager. That is a big X factor that cannot be underestimated.

What a dumb thing to say. Good response.

I don't know how he we will fare at Spurs. I hope that he is a smashing success. But whatever the case may be, he is someone to look up to, not just in football, but in all walks of life. His journey, bucking the odds, and staying true to his beliefs are just inspirational.

did he fuck, he didn't get who he wanted so he is panicking, I am sure he did his 'homework' on nuno too despite the cunt saying he wants good football back for us

if ange says we will make you proud then we will know if levy is pulling the strings

you hit the nail on the head.... thats what sets him apart
 
Let’s face it there is not a whole lot of top mangers out there right now.
How many of them would actually work for levy.
I think he is the least worst option. Yes we probably could have pushed the boat out for nagglesman but he would have used us to get a better job.
When is the last time we poached a manger and not hired someone who was unemployed.
Yep I’m onboard the posta train!

Reading through the comments here and what i will say is that some of what people say and think about Ange is so naïve and disrespectful.
you guys think that you are entitled to the biggest names in world football to manage your team (which is fair enough) however, you had that in the egotistical maniacs Morrene and conte, how did that work out for you? im more than certain Levy will have done his DD on Ange and he sees him as the right fit for what you need ATM.
Ange is a different animal than what you have have had in the past, just give him a little time and i guarrantee that he will have you all eating out of the palm of his hand.
i for one cant wait to say i told you so

Genuinely hope you're right because we didn't give Poch a bell for this guy.
 
My main reservation with Ange is how crap Celtic were in Europe. We need to be patient here. I wouldn't be shocked if in the first 10 games we took a few batterings whilst he figured his system out against the very best players in the world - not the SPL dross.

Fully onboard the Ange train. Just bracing myself for some very difficult moments.

Lucky for him we aren’t in Europe then isn’t it. Whilst some fans wanted to play in the conference, I am very happy we seem to have gone for a project manager who will get a week on the training ground every week AND plays attacking football.

Next is to ship out all the deadwood we don’t need due to no Europe too, I think it could be coming together.
 
He's magic, it's true, Ange Postecoglou!

Or the obvious:

You know we belong together
You and I forever and ever
No matter where you are
You're my guiding star

and from the very first moment I saw you
I never felt such emotion
I'm walking on air
Just to know...(just to know)
You are there...(you are there)

Hold me in your arms
don't let me go
I want to stay forever
home and away
with you each day
