"While it's not going to be perfect, particularly in the beginning, it's going to be a hell of a ride."
Ange Postecoglou is cut from the same cloth as Pep Guardiola and Maurizio Sarri – an emphasis on attacking football, with an unrelenting belief in their philosophy.
Postecoglou, like Manchester City manager Guardiola and Chelsea boss Sarri, pushes the boundaries. His approach never waivers and success follows the 53-year-old in his pursuit of excellence.
From South Melbourne to Australia, Postecoglou has won it all – a pair of National Soccer League championships, back-to-back A-League titles and a record 36-match unbeaten streak at Brisbane Roar, plus a ground-breaking 2015 Asian Cup triumph with the Socceroos.
