Ange Postecoglou opinion: 24 hours of vindication for ex Tottenham and Forest boss
In his two and a half years in English football, Ange Postecoglou hasn’t been one to bury his thoughts and please people.
The infamous ‘I always win things in my second season’ amongst numerous rants in press conferences about his performance and capability at both Tottenham Hotspur and Nottingham Forest hasn’t always rubbed the public the right way.

The fact the Australian manager was set to appear on Gary Neville’s ‘Stick to Football’ podcast the very same day Frank lost his job created the perfect moment for Postecoglou to have the last laugh, as Sports News Blitz writer Oliver Powell reports.
