    Maybe Feyenoord should ask spurs tv to compare spurs European Cup win with their own.......oops sorry, spurs don't have one to compare do they. Still what do you expect? When it comes to football few do arrogance like the English supporters, especially Premier league fans and even more so if from London.

    There is deffo snobbery here but I'll be honest, I find the really knowledgeable football * here know their stuff on Scottish football a bit as well. Whether it be from being football geeks that watch anything on or punting....they know a decent bit..

    A lot of your wee team, Northern lot's like to talk * and slag us off more. That's what I see from social media especially..

    Me gran would score barrel load up there. Check bio and the fannies support Walsall or Grimsby..

    Out of the London clubs Tottenham do have an overwhelming cocky, we're the bollocks type attitude though..

    Just looking at the list Levy has sacked, must be off putting for any manager.

    Huns played with holding mids and got pumped last year we have tried the method of setting up with pragmatism an use different tactic for each game I. Europe it used to work in O’Neil and strachans rein even at start of Lennons but football has evolved so much so that the only way to win is to stick to the game plan keep hold of the ball and as long as it’s in their half majority of the time then we will have a chance we were so unlucky against donetsk and Leipzig if we had 1-2 better players we would have finished third

    Starting to think levy is a Arsenal agent lol every time a manager reaches a final he is sacking them and any decent manager should stay well away from that club .

    Most of the EPL's home crowds are littered with tourists/day trippers and glory hunters..

    Some of the half and half scarves or asking rival players for pictures etc is sickening. They should be battered on sight..

    Ange Postecoglou warns of incoming offers and reveals why managing Celtic is akin to Jenga
    Ange Postecoglou is relishing the challenge of improving Celtic again next season after warning that the club could lose key players this summer.




    The Celtic transfer model is built on acquiring players with potential and selling them for profit - Josip Juranovic the most recent example with a £10million move to Union Berlin in January, while the likes of Kristoffer Ajer, Jeremie Frimpong, Odsonne Edouard and Moussa Dembele have all raked in significantly larger fees than was spent in acquiring their services in recent times.

    The exploits of current Celtic stars such as Kyogo Furuhashi, Jota, Reo Hatate and Matt O'Riley could see them go the same way, while Liel Abada and Carl Starflet have also been linked with moves to England. So when put to him that the task of enhancing the Celtic squad with new signings while at the same time facing the prospect of losing his best players was akin to a game of Jenga, the former Australia boss was in firm agreement.


    It’s not a precise science," Postecoglou said. "I was trying to be predictive with the January window. We kind of knew Jura[novic] and [Giorgos] Giakoumakis would go. We are losing two very good players who had contributed greatly to our success. We thought Oh [Hyeon-gyu] and Alistair [Johnston] both already looked like good players, they are younger than the guys who left, so potentially could have a higher ceiling if we got it right. That’s always the challenge.



    This is the probably first window where we’ll really get tested on some of our key players by other clubs. Our planning is in place, so if that happens, it’s like the Jenga puzzle, before it all collapses we’ll hopefully already have a piece in place to ensure you can take one out and still build strong. I like that Jenga analogy!"

    With the Premiership title and League Cup already secured, victory over Inverness in the Scottish Cup final at Hampden this Saturday will earn Postecoglou a treble in only his second season in charge of Celtic. The next step is to turn plaudits into points in the Champions League after collecting only two from a possible 18 in his maiden campaign, but Postecoglou insists that building for Europe will not be his sole focus this summer transfer window.


    No, because that would be to dismiss domestic football. We just have to be stronger than we were last year,” he stressed. “I’m sitting here just now and, hand on heart and without the bias of me being the manager, I think we’re a better side than we were 12 months ago. We needed to be to achieve what we have so far. That’s got to be the goal next year, to be sitting here saying we are a better team. That doesn’t mean winning the league by 30 points, it may still be a narrow margin, but your football, the way you’re playing, the development of your players has gone to another level. Whether it’s transfers this window, we just want to build a better, stronger squad and be a better team than we were last year. Some of it will be natural because some of the players are still developing. In terms of transfers and what we want to try and do, that’s our focus.”
