This is from a Scottish mate of mine back in 2023:
‘On a personal level his whole "mate, mate" thing got old quite quickly, and he revealed himself to be quite a chippy guy whenever scrutinised. He's a bit of a master at getting people to eat out of the palm of his hand though so it might fly under the radar a bit in future. I think even if he does a poor job at Spurs and gets sacked he'll probably go on and get the Barcelona job or something, because he's got a whole cult leader vibe in terms of his own persona and his "footballing vision". There's Ange Postecoglou the football manager, and then there's Big Ange the package, and Big Ange the package will get him big jobs.‘
It’s shocking how all of this came true.
