Financially then i'd agree. Playing staff wise i dont think so. I'm not seeing many Carricks or Berbatovs. Keane and Lennon would get in this side. Thats before you start on the 15-18 side. Its a massive leap to catch those above us and we might not do it but i'd like to at least see the intent.

Nearly 25 years of ownership, we have not seen the intent yet.
People: give reasons why they doubt Postecoglou
Richard Arlison: So why you doubt Postecoglou?????
Shit, over dramatic reasons
Sure mate, you must be right.

Between the two of us, I’m backing myself Kek
Yeah… I have no doubt you do…
I said the 2nd half of his first season. I didn't say the start.
Whilst I don't agree with his timing and felt he held out too long to say everything he said was true and still is true imo.Don't disagree with that, I've always said conte was spot on. CL qualification is seen as a good season . There's no pressure from the top be champions.
They've never won nothing, they're used to it here. Not playing for something, playing without pressure
And here it is. This is too easy. Ffs I worked this out, inverting both fullbacks will not work long term. Its too easy to exploit. It's not a personnel issue it's inherent flaws out weigh the good.

I guess that’s what every team will do. It’s easy.

formationcanbecountered, it's not that deep.You have the right players/profile then this doesn't become an issue.
People put way too much stock in formations/tactics man.
If you think it's easy then you don't understand elite football. It doesn't have to be 'easy' for it not to be compatible with garnering enough points to win a title which is my concern. This utterly faithbased idea being punted 'if the players lose belife it won't work' is hillarous. It won't work if it does not provide enough defensive security to keep clean sheets period no matter how much you believe.
I wonder how long the unquestioning loyalty to an untested idea will last, I'm going to put a clock on it. I don't think the players have lost an iota of 'belife' think there was full buy in at Fulham Newcastle Chelsea. Wow all this talk of belife its like Kevin Keegans back.
Nah. Not true. In Scotland you don't have Unai Emery managing the fourth placed side. You don't have the likes of Ancelotti rocking up at fucking Everton. Things that work in Scotland won't work in England, the quality of tactics is much higher, coaches here aren't impressed or scared by an intense press or a high line, you need more variation.
None of which is to say that Ange can't work here, but the same tactics used as Celtic would not work in England. There aren't random mid-table teams in Scotland like Brighton with a De Zerbi in charge and a team of top internationals. It's a completely different level in all senses, someone like Potter going from Ostersund to England shows this. His ideas were unique there, he's ten a penny here.
Spot on. No matter how unpalatable for some, and for the record I am as far from a 'little Englander as is possible to be' but Emrey is a perfect example because Steven Gerrard was his predecessor and succeeded in Scotland. There are coaches here of such quality that it's not at all equitable. Fulham and Bournemouth have coaches levels above what StMirren and alike can call on. Stephen Robinson and Derek Mcinnes ...no it's not equitable at all now .
