- This is the full interview of when The World Game interviewed Ange Postecoglou at the time he was managing the Australian youth national soccer team. During the interview, him and Craig Foster, chief football anylist for The World Game, got into a heated argument over Ange's position at the Australia Youth Club, Foster pointing out that he wasn't getting the results he should've and therefore should retire, Ange believing he should stay. A short while after the argument, maybe a week or so later, Ange Postecoglou got sacked; guess he should've listened to Foz after all.
Hello to Foz if you're reading this, very nice argument you have given us here, good that you're not afraid to get stuck into people, but we haven't see an argument on TWG for ages, please start one, pleeeeeeeeease. - Sport

Who's here after Ange got the Tottenham job?
Nobody.
@Harry Himdini harry himindi is here isn't he?
@@harryhimdini8861 🤡🤡🤡
I am
Guilty
Craig Foster is still a SBS part timer and Postecoglu was in the Champions League this season. Well done Ange.
Hey hey come on Craig's made a name for himself on his soap box
How did he get on in the Champions league 😂
@@WeeBMS Not bad considering he was managing a Scottish team.
@@WeeBMS better than you clown shoe 🤡👟
I don't get why people are criticizing Craig here, he was absolutely correct to call out the pathetic run of results and Ange should have had shame. I tell you this, if he had this attitude in the Premiere League he'd get grilled beyond compare.
I’m loving that this interview is now being watched across the whole world. Congrats Ange, you make us Aussies so proud
As a Brit I'm massively looking forward to seeing him in the Premier League. Banter aside I've always loved a straight shooting Aussie.
@@psyseraphim as an Aussie, I obviously want him to do well. As a West Ham fan, less so.
I didn't know who either of these people were a week ago... but today, Craig Foster is my enemy. And anyone else who's disrespected our man Ange lol COYS
@@siiiiiuu7 send him some hate via social media. Nothing too bad, i just like the idea of him trying to work out why spurs fans are angry with him about 20 years after this interview.
@@kiriakoz Done.
Postecoglou is an example of hard work and perseverance. No one, not even himself would have envisioned he would be in the position he is now 20 years later. A true Aussie football success story.
I think Postecoglou would have envisioned a big coaching job like Spurs, it's what he's been striving for all his life, he'll do well at Spurs.

Success and Spurs
Really?
@@vassabatielos4740You clearly don’t know about football history.
@@davidbeeson9408 are you talking about 1961 again 🥱
Then he won the A league, then he won the Asian Cup, then he won the J League, now he is coaching Celtic FC. some trajectory
Also qualified Australia for the world cup
Is that supposed to be impressive? 🤣
@@billybigbaws9993 more impressive than slippy g's 1 trophy out of 9
@@paddylynch621 it's over bud, it will be okay I promise
he also coach South Melbourne in the first ever FIFA World Club Cup
I’m loving that this interview is now being watched in Scotland
Profoundly
It’s hilarious they are all sat arguing and obsessing over a youth teams results. Surely youth football coaches are judged on how many reach the mens first team not on whether or not they beat Laos youth in a one off match 🤣🤣
Would love him to do this to kris boyd
There's like no.55 for ya
Brilliant stuff hey mate
I don't think I've ever seen a youth coach interviewed on TV before let alone questioned to the extent of calling for his sacking 🤣
For context. The World Game was the show this was and it was all encapsulating - it’d be on all Sunday afternoon and would cover basically every league in the world. It was the best
@@stuartives it covered every league in the world? was it a 24 hour show and they talked about the cambodian league at 2am?
this was craig foster trying to score some points for a technical director to be appointed, he almost banished ange from football, but maybe it was a good thing ultimately, postecoglou maybe worked harder and better than before because of this
Fos can absolutely lose it, Ange has respect. He keeps a level of respect
12 years later and our youth national players still don't get to play enough first class competitive games.
our youth system is fucked, we just lost on pens to qatar when we had a stacked u23 team, I dont understand how this is possible
@@minichalvo9818 Qatar had as many red cards as shots on target and still won. Biggest mistake Football in this country has ever made is not giving Ange full control of the national side
yeah thats coz most of the clubs where the youth players come from are not professionaly run. Everyone is more interested in how much money they are going to be paid to develop their players.
this is closer to 20 years old...the video was uploaded here years after it happened
Much of youth dev is pay to play or who you know, and coaches reputations come through wins, and not through careful and concerted development of young players.
Ange is loved by Aussies because he is the epitome of the Aussie spirit. He got grilled in front of the world in this interview and instead of giving up, he dug his heels in and he backed himself and he came back and shut Foster and the rest of the mob up with success in the a-league, Asia cup and Japan.
Go ange, go get em son!
How do you think he will do at Celtic?
Any relation of the Bomber Liston ?
@@elizajohn5 TAKE A LOOK...............
@@dubstep1970 A look at what?
@@elizajohn5 i think he'll win the league & a cup in his first season
This aged well, lol. Ange goes from strength to strength. Tells the truth even if people don’t want to hear it.
And now hes a prem manager
His career trajectory from this point is so impressive - the man never minced his words and he has been serious about his coaching even when people tried to write him off. The man knows what he is doing
Incorrect. He didn't know what he was doing back then. Foster was right on this one 👍
@@rayromano6249
Have you considered that he knew what he was doing but the players were kind of shit?
@@johnarundell7951 haha, couldn't have said it better. You can polish a turd, but at the end of the day, it's still a turd.
It doesn't matter who the coach is, if you're in a qualifying campaign and need to win games and your team is shit.... then any manager is going to have trouble.
found the assna fan@@rayromano6249
His uncompromising style has went down a treat at Celtic. Fans adore him. Won the league and cup in his first season, rebuilt an entire squad from scratch.
Div 2
Dodged a bullet in Howe, he’d have been off to Leeds in a heartbeat and we’d have missed out in Ange completely
36 games unbeaten - an Australian record, so who's been proven right now?
At spurs now too
@@snookerstones bloody hell imagine old mate pops onto youtube and sees someone reply to his comment 11 years later, thats cool

"OK, you're not attacking me personally. That's great. I feel much better because you're a really close mate." Killed him.
Not mates anymore...🙈
"Right so you've stated your opinion, let's move on anymore questions? Will I resign? No. I'll leave that with the people who are credible." Hahahahaha how does he manage to be so polite with such a brutal put down?
Just watched Celtic beat Hearts on Sunday. It was great to see Ange at Parkhead. This guy Foz oozes jealousy, he barely holds it in. He must be raging now. Come on the Hoops! 💚
@@leonardnimoy7 ..If Ange can rebuild Celtic & bring them back to where they were under Brendan Rodgers or even better with a good run in Europe, it could be his ticket into the English Premier League & that’s as big as it gets. It’s early days & he has massive games ahead, but he’s doing a great job..🍀🍀
@@christophebonhoefferofbelg9846 very true. Celtic have made and broken so many records, but ofcourse we want Champions League like every team does. It is early days yes, but I am loving his approach. We all are! I see great things for Ange, but we will have him first. Amazing 2 goal lead last night too. 2 minutes to go in injury time and Ange is screaming at the defenders to get in the box, pushing for 3 till the final whistle. Brilliant. Mon the Hoops 💚
Ange went on to win 11 Club trophies with 4 different clubs.
He also won the AFC Asian Cup with Australia, and AFF U19 Championship.
He also won the Australian and A League manager of the year; the Asian manager of the year, Australian manager of the decade, not to mention 2 Scottish manager of the year and 2 Scottish Football Writers Association manager of the year awards.
Craig continues his hard hitting journalistic approach to this day. But seldom at SBS anymore.
Not to mention sitting top of the prem with SPURS of all teams
hard shitting
@@fuzzstergoatthey'll be in the bottom half soon though
If he wins a trophy with us after the likes of Conte and Mourinho (who would have if Levy didn't sack him the prat) that's got to be one of the greatest achievements of man kind.
Congratulations on your first Scottish premiership, Ange. The first of many.
He can take full responsibility for turning our club around in such a short space of time. Absolute hero
@JL J So is Aaron Ramsey isn't he? 🤣🤣
There's missing penalties and then there's gently passing the ball to the goalkeeper
As for this season we can let the 2 teams do the talking
@JL J one lucky European run isn’t a defence for how shit you were in the league
@JL J didnt see.much flag waving at parkhead yesterday from the huns? unless you mean the white flag of course?
@JL J Get it fucking up you. 4-0 mate enjoy being the nearly men of europe again
I love Postecoglou even more now, that was immense.
Immense 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 a childish argument lol
Greek and ausie
I watched this as a teenager live. I was very swayed by Foster, it felt like he had the balls to destroy him. Now in hindsight it's so opposite. Ange stood his ground with real character like a boss. The best manager this country has produced, an amazing man 👏
@Coachteach yeah me too I think it's how we were spoiled by the golden team of Australian football with the likes of viduka, cahill, Kewell, etc. and the results they achieved, we foolishly believed the formation of the Aleague alone and the results of the national team would improve the quality of our football over the years and we expected the same level if not better results. also Les and Foz were really the only football show in Australia at the time so anyone who cared about football tuned into them religiously. They also shared a passion for the socceroos and Australian football that most Aussies who followed them shared.
I'm loving what Ange is doing now and in hindsight love the way he handled himself in this interview when Foz had a clear agenda.
I love how Ange has now re-assured everyone he is the best coach in this country and Foz is still on SBS talking rubbish.
Shut up you clown. He is the biggest bullshit quitter in the country. Zero points at World Cup finals. Wake the fuck up!
Please.....Emotion is great, only if there’s invigoration! Postecoglou divided! Others clean up after him.....He is a disciple of Rondo, the most boring and ineffective form of soccer,great if you’ve got millions to buy,just ask Bayern and the Citizens!
@@Deadheads_Dookie Rondo boring and ineffective? Explain?
Both ate idols of Aussie soccer, I'm a victory fan and ange is the coach we've ever had, both have experience the world of football
@@worldclass3895 clown
As a Spurs fan, I am astonished that the club has appointed Ange, when they clearly should have given the job to Craig Foster. Seriously, loving this guy and can't wait to see him at the Lane. I just pray he gets the time needed to do his thing. COYS.
Craig Foster to this day is an insufferable presenter on stan sports
😂😂😂😂👍🏻
@@mihailomilutinovic8371plus he looks weak & feeble and about 8000 years old.
Aged well
@@mihailomilutinovic8371yep, that's a good way to describe him
I remember watching this live and feeling sorry for Ang. He is trying to tell them that the domestic system is not geared to producing good teams. They are twisting it to accuse him of blaming the players, which he clearly didn't do. Very disingenuous of Foster and to a lesser degree Les Murray. They could have steered the discussion into "what changes should we make to stop this failure happening again?" Oh did I mention Ang's CELTIC are the champions? COYBIG!!
If I'd seen this, I'd've taken him quitting the Socceroos a lot fucking better
@@natebernasconi He was sick of the negative whingers in the media, like Foster.
I watched this live, early morning with a filthy hangover and it was both surreal and brutally honest. Still one of the best interviews on Australian television.
I hope the hangover's not as bad when you're reminded of this, legend
The interviewer was horrible. Ange was spot on when it comes to his shortcomings.
@@Alexander-bj6vj would you believe that if Australia became a Republic, that interviewer is the favourite to become President?
He actually does a lot of great work around refugees and feeding the homeless (literally down to preparing food weekly at an Aussie equivalent of a soup kitchen).
Man you have low standards, plus your were inebriated. Go back to bed.
@@natebernasconi thats lovely, has nothing to do with the interview. Dude just talked over ange and didnt let him explain any of his points
"Welcome any scrutiny as long as its informed, non-agenda based and not ignorant". Awesome Ange
As a Spurs fan and a new Ange fan I'm loving this interview. He composes himself so well. I hope Craig Foster looks at what Ange has achieved since this interview and eats a large amount of humble pie! - Excited to have Ange at The Lane and watch him work his magic. Last thing, what's going on with that pronunciation of Laos?... Hilarious!
To be fair , I think Foz has done that and heaped praise on Ange . Foz can be a bit of a mouthful but loves Australian football and does a lot of good things .
Craig Foster was out licking Anges arse when he got the spurs job, he's clearly a sausage
@@Beaumont-pk2mm Yeah, I hope people don’t base their entire opinion on Foz off this. He’s a great man, as is Ange
Foz couldn't stop heaping praise on Ange in 2014. He just cares about the future of Australian Football that's why he was pissed at our youngsters being eliminated.
@@Beaumont-pk2mm So? We all love Australian football. Foz is soooo full of himself. Not important at all.
Impressive the way Ange Postecoglou stood his ground, didn't lose his composure, and summarised the situation to end with. This despite misrepresentations, persistent aggressive interruptions and demands that he resign from the studio pundit -- who's high opinion of himself and brittle composure was evident here. I think he'll handle the football press in England if he comes to Spurs. I hope he will.
Honestly I reckon Australian press might be even worse than English press
If you want to worry about Ange I wouldn't worry about his press handling
To any Celtic fans watching this, this is ancient history in Australia. The interviewer Foster was a mediocre player at best in his day. Foster is one of those types that take the easy road and go into the media. He talks a big game like he’s some sort of oracle of the sport but he’s never had the actual gonads to go into coaching.
what did he ever do?
Didnt he coach Nerds FC? 😂
Most media pundits are like hat
The funny thing about it is he is telling the guy to resign because he believed he wasn't good enough yet he got all his facts wrong with the results but he thinks he is a good pundit! 🤣
Fos stands on SBS when it was a real minor football channel wearing untailored suits and white sneakers drawing triangles onscreen when Brisbane under Ange went undefeated multiple seasons...
Ange was correct in pointing out the systemic issues in developing youth football where the players are lacking the quality, which had he been listened are only now trying to be addressed and confirmed by Mark Viduka and others now. Frankly, it wasn’t about the coaching but the player development and quality of those players. It’s systemic and it’s incorrect to blame the coach when the development isn’t there. ten years ago Ange knew that but the commentators can only see in front of their noses.
he was talking about what was happening at the time with the transition from NSL to A League and there being no national standard games being played for more than a year between early 2004 and late 2005, also the governing body of the sport running out of money in 2002
player development up until this time had been good
Most pundits are clueless
Big Ange is a true Aussie; from the dry wit and sarcasm, to the no nonsense attitude, to the never give up mentality.
Thats a true Greek mate
@@gudduwonka5586 They certainly know how to give up on economic development and paying their debts.
@@keynesianeconomics4113 You forgot one thing mate, non-existent tax payments
its the English way that Aussies inherited from us@@gudduwonka5586
The sad part is that in Australia we don’t see any shows like this around football. I wish we could see more live debates like this because there are definitely some involved in the hierarchy of football who could not hold themselves like Ange did here.
Im amazed at his composure and eloquence-arrived as a migrant, did it the hard way, and won times over. He's a bit of an inspiration
Came over at 5. He tells a beautiful story about his Dad and South Melbourne Hellas though.
Ahhh Craig Foster, "are you going to resign?"
It’s amazing just how professional Ang was back then and still is now!
Yeah dude I think looking back he got upset and really hurt by wokey Craig demanding he resign. But he got active and smarter in his coaching career and proven a lot of people wrong including me.
Watching this in 2023.. this guy is phenomenal. So happy he’s in the Premier League, and I’m not even a Spurs fan
Even as a Rangers man - we all need more of Ange - great value this man.
A hugely appreciated comment - it says a lot about you that you can look beyond the rivalry and be positive about Ange.
He certainly has the tools to deal with the assorted clowns working within the Scottish MSM, though he's not as combative as he was in this video.
Definitely mate 🇬🇧
Lol you can tell he's a piece of shit in real life. He didn't know what he was doing back then
Fuck that, he was an egotistical twat who was extremely antagonistic and disrespectful towards other clubs. He feigns humility.
Hes a fool
Full interview
question 1 : Why won’t you take responsibility for the losses?
A: I do take responsibility for the losses
Question 2 : Why won’t you resign then?
A: Because I don’t want to
(Return to question 1)
Fozz was right, but Ange has had the last laugh. 👊🏻
The first Australian/Greek that I can honestly say is my Mount Rushmore of people I aspire to be like. Constantly considered as an underdog, constantly proving people wrong
“Guess he should’ve listened to Foz after all”
Now Ange is managing a premier league club while fuck knows what “Foz” is doing.
Who’s here after he’s linked with Celtic job ?
Who's here after he's linked with Spurs' job?
Ange just sees how it is and doesn’t just say what the media wants to hear …he’s straight up and that’s rare in football these days what a man and loving having him here in Scotland 💚
Bye bye ange
It's insane looking now that he's considered one of the best managers in the world, Right now I'd put top 5 best coaches in the world his work at Totenham is miraculous.
Even as an Arsenal fan this man seems so likeable. Seems like a proper personality and a force to be reckoned with.
As an Arsenal fan it's worrying me a bit 😮😅😂
An Arsenal fan with Cristiano Ronaldo as an image? I'm guessing you're a tourist, not a fan
@@GamingRobioto no just found the image funny mate. Not everything is that deep pal.
No he doesn't. He's got an ego bigger than his belly yet he feigns humility.
I watched the games. I watched them so closely that I thought we'd lost a game that we in fact drew.
I think in retrospect, Ange has a very fair point. Football in Australia has come a long way since this interview was taped, what I think Ange is trying to say is that (back then) when you have to play a country like China or Korea which had domestic leagues of a much higher quality than Australia's was, you have to expect that we're going to struggle when they're used to being able to push themselves in a competitive environment that we lacked. It's not blaming the players, it's just a fact.
WOW!!! Can we get Craig Foster to interview him now?
Craig Foster played 19 games for Portsmouth. Was more famous as a football pundit than a player. Today he's become a human rights activist. He's a little bit of greeny lefty and advocates for a lot of woke talking points.
They did an interview last year, you can look it up. They're fine with each other. As a life lesson, we can all learn from it. This interview did do damage to Ang's career prospects at the time, he spend some years in the wilderness doing TV pundit work, but never gave up, and according to him he holds no grudges about it.
What a legend. Absolutely knows how to deal with these muppets.
Big Ange the Boss. We’re all right behind the man . ☘️👊🇮🇪 Cmon the Celtic ☘️
When I watched this live I thought Fozz won, but now, the proof is in the pudding. Ange told us so. In fact, they were both right, we weren't good enough for Asia. Maybe still aren't, but we are developing our youngsters more and more. And Ange can hold his head very high with his coaching record.
Great erudite comment. Its a great spat, and both raise great points...Ange shows what a tough competitor nd coCH HE IS. FOZZY HAS DONE HIS FAIR SHARE OF GREAT THINGS TOO. I GUESS WE CAN HAVE 2 WINNERS
Wtf has foz done
Watched this when it aired first and Fozzie was never right, he was a rude know-it-all as he has always been.
What has Foster "won"? Talking over the other guy, ignoring what they said and making up arguments for them to shoot down?
Why don't you change the leagues? Like the formats? I can never quite work it out. All seems a bit confusing like you have loads of little leagues or something.
This is why Ange is coaching in the EPL. He believed in himself and didn’t listen to the likes of Craig Foster to quit.
this is absolutely hilarious because Ange was right... we still don't have quality at any level.. even the world cup results are more about the Aussie spirit than actually the quality of football.. for gods sake there is no youth system in this country or competition.. you can't compete with kids who train 5 times a week, twice a day and most of them play in professional leagues
Yeh hundred percent I don't even follow football and our youth leagues are a joke
Both Ange and Foster have buried the hatchet after 15 years (source: Stan Sport FC). Unbelievable that they both made up now but this interview will forever be iconic in Australian football history.
They both went Woke!
@@xristaki hahah, put the pipe down!
It's so weird to me seeing the "prepare meals for the homeless for fucking years" Foster I see know compared to this tosser. Makes me wonder the time in-between
This is now iconic world wide
Ange is gracious! Foster is a big mouthed fool who lacks humility and class!
he then coached brisbane to a 38 game unbeaten streak and won two premierships...
And won the Asian cup, two World Cup qualifiers. Ange wins …👍
@@gregorydocherty2730 Won the J-League with Yokohama F. Marinos.
Beat the Huns at paradise
Took over a depleted and deflated Celtic squad and turned it around in no time, winning the 1st bit of silverware within the 1st few months (Scottish League Cup).
And now coaching Tottenham
This might be one of my favourite interviews
I’m loving that this interview is now being watched in North London
Craig Foster is a numpty. Never liked him. Poor sports commentator. Often shows his bias.
You don’t like him because you are against being told the truth. Most sports commentators are paid to talk shit and talk up the game or teams. Or they don’t criticise certain people because of old friendships which is actually unprofessional since they are paid to provide knowledgeable opinions. Foster because he was at SBS was given free reign to tell the truth. People from from countries with real football cultures understand him and know he’s right most times. Aussies who want to be lied to and don’t know how fucking shit they are at football dont like him. The truth is always unpopular
@@worldclass3895 are you Craig Foster lol
@@worldclass3895 free reign, lol.....up to the point of drawing attention to Laslo for the posturing imbecile he was.
@@greymouser8659 Only one person got the sack. The one who was incompetent. You can rewrite facts based on your girly feelings.
@@worldclass3895 missed the point little one....nowt about sacking. All about how Laslo ran an empire and all who benefited within it avoided the elephant in the room.
Ange is brilliant manager Celtic fans adore him he’s taken a team that was a basket case and now he’s got the team on the road to success . He’s great coach .
What basket case? He was to build a new team due to others being too greedy to stay in the team they supported all their lives, for more money elsewhere end of.
He's a better man than he is a coach... And he's the best coach I've seen at Celtic since Martin O'Neill.
Incredible man, we're so lucky to have him. We'll back him to the hilt and hopefully facilitate his rise to the top
@@Ecky5165. As a team, we were a basket case when Ange came. Season 20/21 was an omnishambles.
@@Ecky5165. Yo, moron, the club sold Tierney, Tierney didn't request a transfer. We were never going to refuse the offer we got for him.
I wonder when Tottenham fans will find this…

Just found it we love Ange #COYS
Bless you for still having this up
Huns watching videos of potential next Celtic managers. Remember they aren’t obsessed.
And they let there club die 😂😂 god bless Craig Whyte
I’m only here because I need a good laugh.
The only thing to remember is they let their club die, what sort of fans do such a thing?
We let our club die? According to who?
@@mickhend1916 there their they’re work it out ya mong
Ange should have walked out when it became apparent Foster hadn't done his research.
Never walk out. You’ve immediately lose the argument.
Ange stood his ground well, comes across as a very honourable man. Sadly lacking these days.
I miss Les Murray's voice. I hope he's resting in peace 🙏
Not attacking him personally but asking him to resign at the same time :)
Can't comment on his coaching way back then but I promise you I'm loving his coaching as a 56 year old manager of my club Celtic. Ange is now in his prime. Hail Hail.
Craig Foster should sack himself as a player. He qualified for not one World Cup.
Foz recently interviewed Ange again when he was back in Sydney. They are on friendly terms these days. Foz also backed Ange-ball when he was coaching the Soceroos, and was critical of the tactics employed by Bert van Marwijk at the World Cup after he succeeded Ange.
Fast forward to 2023, Ange has been named manager of Tottenham Hotspur
My mate used to play with Craig Foster years ago for Adelaide city junior team or reserves and he always mentions how Foster gave him a headbutt after a tackle haha
What’s that prove? Absolutely nothing! Only proves football is tough game and you have never played at high level by being surprised that it can be violent.
@@worldclass3895 dude, its a 5 year old comment. Chill

It's intense in Scotland but far from smart lol can you imagine this guy's reaction to Tom English' stupidity?

It's not the media he has to worry about in Scotland, it's the fans. His own fans. Celtic have to win every game. That's the way it is.
Lose a couple of games and there's a mob trying to destroy the team bus.
I feel sorry for the guy. He's going to get his arse reamed in Glasgow. He'll be back in Oz in time for Christmas.
At least the interviewer took the guy to task , in Scotland the journalists criticise on a phone in panel but when face to face with a manager hardly got the guts to say anything.

Exactly.
I remember watching this live on SBS
Fast forward a couple of years and Ange is top of the table. When it comes to coaching, Fozzie should leave it to the professionals.
foster looking like a right mug
How goods the UK looking right now
All Craig does is make a provocative statement and then talk over him
Won trophies in Australia. Back to back world cup qualifications. Gold cup winners. Won trophies in Japan.
Has won the league cup with Celtic, beaten Rangers for the first time since the end of 2019 and sits top of the league after a massive rebuild with a team who finished 25 points off 1st last season and won zero trophies (didn't even manage to get to a final). He's doing a phenomenal job and believed in himself along the entire way.
Add a Treble and now the manager at Tottenham!
Sorry, but what's the "Gold cup"?
Ange got his back up a little too much at the beginning, but Craig then telling him to resign and being a total smartass was uncalled for and very disrespectful. Clearly, they must have had a fair bit of negative history well before this interview. Great to watch nonetheless 🙂
Ange proving to all of us it's not where you start it's where you finish , easy to criticise not easy to persevere and improve, fair play to Ange
I hope he's kept some of this attitude to respond to the opinions of such football geniuses as Tim Sherwood and Andy Townsend. Welcome to Spurs, Ange. Good to have you.
I watch a lot of football both the Premiership and Scottish and he definitely still has this straight shooting personality. Watch the interview after winning the treble and they asked him about leaving 😂.
Can’t wait to hear that clown Jamie O’Hara on TalkSh*te trying to take Ange on.
Foster only wanted Ange to announce his resignation in this interview based on his interrogation. He was not inerested in listening to Ange in any way. Thankfully, Foster was simply exposed as a complete `pratt`.
Foster showed on that day what damage a small-minded
Absolute toss!
And small minded. What's Foster ever done in soccer? He was a mediocre player at best.
Ange won The Firm this week and has grown so much since this interview. Can't say the same for football in Australia.
Yeah agree....he has and had then a big vision for football wherever he coached ...too many pea-brains like Foster and others in Admin who love themselves too much...they should resign their positions in my opinion...
@@glen8461 Those positions shouldn't even exist.
Spurs fan watching this and...fuck yeah...this is who we need.
Used to love this show. The 6 hour coverage of football on Sunday 12-6pm and MOTD/PL highlights show on Monday night were pretty much all we had...
Ange held his ground and defended himself well. The issue with youth level results is that because the players are always transitioning into and out of the squads, the greater determinant of success as these levels is out of the coaches hands. It is dependent on grassroots football and the emerging talent in that country. Once this is in place, it is more the structural aspects of teams and football institutions to develop these talents and recruit those the age ranges (12-21) that may have initially missed out or been following other interests and suddenly display the ability to play professional football. Then, once this is all in place (see places like England, Spain, Brazil etc.), can a coach really have some impact on results and outcomes (except for the truly exceptional coaches). I think this was the underlying argument that Ange/Foz were having here but had a slightly different position on this, though they did have the same underlying view.
In any case, Ange never stood out as truly exceptional (top division quality yes) but many will finally see more of his ability this year and in the EPL. What worked against him in the video above here, worked in his favour at Celtic, i.e. their success is less dependent on their coach and more on all the structures and processes in that neck of UK, at least domestically (generally speaking, compared for similar positions in say EPL, La Liga, Serie A).
A few set backs made Ange the great coach he is today. Foster continued talking rubbish as he still is doing today. Great to see Ange keeping his cool while Foster has a mental breakdown being frustrated of not achieving anything in his own professional career.
I'm an aussie and I'm glad he went to celtic and not rangers. rangers are an openly racist team
Australia is an openly racist country
@@cardamundo295 maybe, but it’s big, and you can’t say that about rangers
@@snowyren5135 hahaha luckily I'm not a rangers fan so I won't argue with that. Top response 👌
@@snowyren5135 if being the most successful club in world football doesn’t make you big I wonder what does? 55 titles and still going strong
@@johnrussell552Scottish league is a bum league, your comment just proves that 😂
I’m loving that this interview is now being watched all over the universe
Most genuine Scottish football fans including Rangers fans are saying Ange has been a breath of fresh air for Scottish football, the style of football he has brought to Celtic is not only highly entertaining to watch but it’s also highly productive as Celtic now sit six points ahead of second place Rangers who also have had a great run this season in European football.
Australia’s loss is Scotland’s gain and Scottish football fans are loving big Ange 💚🏴☘️🇮🇪
If he joins Celtic then I’d love to see him talking to Andy Walker
Go Ange! You changed the A-League, you improved the way the Socceroos played and you are a serial league winner. I am excited to see what you do with Spurs.
I watched this interview live, thought he nailed it, and his point is still as true today as it was back then, but it's not an easy one to solve, mainly because there is little funding for the development of talent in Australia, and our whole dev & money system is upside down. We continue to struggle in Asia and will until this is resolved.
Love the directness of the Aussies. Nothing held back here
Cant wait till he gives this directness to the Press before and after games the big wolf will eat these sheep!
Gutted to see Ange go. He gave me and probably every other young Celtic fan the most fun two years we've ever seen. No hard feelings though, he's going to smash it at spurs
Geoff Shreeves in a few years: "Are you gonna take responsibility for Spurs not winning a trophy?
When this argument happened everyone knew exactly what Ange was saying about his squad players not getting enough game time . He wasn’t questioning the talent 🤨
Talent was an issue though. None of those players went on to have good careers
There needs to be more exchanges like this on TV in sport
Imagine him talking to Levy like this 😂😂
I like a lot from what I've seen and heard about Ange so excited for his appointment even though that might be in the minority atm.
He stands up for what he believes in. And if Levy gets in the way, I can assure you, Ange will walk out. He suffers no fools.
Proud of you Ange! A lesson to be learnt by all humanity, of what to do in the face of adversity!
Craig Foster not only thinks he knows everything about football, but he also thinks he’s a genius on aboriginal issues, immigration policy, dealing with illegal immigrants, war, and the Australian system of government - which he wants to radically change. Unfortunately his opinions on those things are about as good as his opinion on Ange’s coaching.
OK, I seriously admire Ange. He's so smart, funny and charismatic. I hope he does a great job at spurs. Cheers ❤🇵🇹
Now he’s the manager of Tottenham! Excellent achievement.
😂😂😂
Ange is and always has been a class act
This is brilliant! You don't see this stuff on tv anymore
Foster would be eating his words now
After this interview Ange's life was seriously negatively affected, both in a professional and personal sense. He was really concerned that it would define him and his career and he hit rock bottom. However, despite Foster's inappropriate treatment of Ange, he pulled himself up by his bootstrings, came back even stronger and like the true gentleman that he is, was willing and able to move forward and reconcile with Foster, no hard feelings.
And this is what we love about Ange, who not only shows us that we can pick our lives up when faced with injustice and adversity, but that it is better to make amends with others instead of holding grudges and hatred. So not only a superb mananger but a brilliant human being and role model!
Every Aussie football loves Ange, always will! Look at his history from south Melbourne to Celtic n major honours every team along the way. Then on the other hand the biggest pest n “BS” talker in Aussie football history.
I hear you brutha!
