Originally published at: Charlie Nicholas comes up with the most ridiculous Ange Postecoglou Celtic comparison yet
Charlie Nicholas has today won the award for the most ludicrous and premature Ange Postecoglou comparison yet as he compared him to former Hoops boss Ronny Deila. Postecoglou is in the midst of a poor run of form as he struggles to get his best XI on the park. He hasn’t been helped by an…

While we all know Nicholas is just another bitter ex-Celtic player who feels the world of Celtic owes them, and as a pundit talks total garbage more often than not, it doesn’t take a genius to see Ange is no better than Deila!
The similarities are frightening!
They are both one dimensional. They have a single game plan and style, if in fact they even have this!
From the time we hired this manager I was not confident one iota!
What manager in his right mind and with the tiniest backbone would take a job like this that had to include keeping the coaches that had just dailed so miserably to even challenge for a single trophy the previous season? Our biggest season in over 50 years?
What is it with the blinkered so-called fans who turned on Lennon, a Celtic man through and through who bleeds green and lets not forget brought unprecedented success to the club both as a player and a manager, have rose tinted eye ware for Ange? Trust me, Lennon is ten times the coach this guy is!
Lennon came in with 14 games remaining and when the players were at an all time low with two of three trophies still to be decided and secured the historical treble treble, then followed that up with yet another one!
He lifted the players to a level no other could.
Fast forward to Ange.
He is, like it or not, a total flop. He has one style which if teams actually attack us, he doesn’t know how to deal with it.
He is a puppet, a one dimensional puppet!
Sure, Nicholas is an idiot. But even idiots are right once in a while.
We all know Ange was yet another cheap option from a board who do not have the interests of our unequalled history at heart.
Howe was also a bad choice and we dodged one bullet there but stepped in front of a bigger gun instead.
This hire will cost us millions and major credibility. In fact, it already has set us back fifty years.
Postecouglou is the same as Ronny never, Ange has done great with his team. Apart from letting Leigh go and keeping Spaghetti? Leigh is like Spaghetti poachers, no use without another striker. Then again if you give them a decent pass, and not hammered at them they will score even scraps. And the two #10’s need to get in the box with the ball, not blasting way over at twenty-five yards out. Glory goals when they hit the net Pass ya idiots.
if Ange is one dimensional then so must have been Jock Stein as his Lions could only play the one way and that was attack is the best form of defence, i went to a 6-5 match at east end park and even in the all conquering season of 67 we only lost to Dundee Utd twice both 3-2 cup final of 6-3 6-2 and 5-3 against the hibs made watching football a joy.
if we really want to talk about one dimensional try Brendan Rodgers when he didn’t have Dembele fit in his season 2.
Yes we have lost matches but surely with the injury crisis and inheriting a depleted squad who performed shockingly last season the manager should be given a chance to show what he can do with a decent bench.
Even on Sunday the match was entertaining with lots of incidents and goal scoring chances even with us having to play with 10 men and a very lazy Anjeti and was more enjoyable than Rodgers playing with 1 forward and everyone else behind the ball.
Our 3 league defeats are at places where both Lenny and Rodgers lost even with a settles and established squad.
We should be supporting Ange and if we do want to blame anyone we should hound that disgrace we call our board.
