Stick to Football — Season 1, Episode 117: Ange: Spurs Fallout, Forest Job Regrets & Celtic Success

Episode synopsis

After last week’s blockbuster episode, Ange Postecoglou returns to join Gary Neville, Jamie Carragher, Roy Keane, Jill Scott and Ian Wright for a deeper look at his life in and out of football. Ange reflects on his upbringing in Australia after his family moved from Greece, how that shaped him, and where his love for the game truly began. The conversation then turns to his coaching journey, from developing his bold tactical identity at Tottenham to his short spell at Nottingham Forest. Does he regret taking the job at the City Ground, and would he make the same decision again? We also revisit his time at Spurs, including winning the Europa League against Manchester United, managing top players like Micky van de Ven and Cristian Romero, and how he views both the highs and the setbacks. Celtic, VAR and what comes next in his career are all up for discussion, as well as his view that the Manchester United job is “the hardest in football”.
