Ange is back

I know some people aren’t fans of his, but his teams always play to score one more — and that’s exactly the kind of football I love. Hopefully he picks up right where he left off at Tottenham. He’s an attacking-minded coach, so it’ll be interesting to see how players like Morgan Gibbs-White, Dan Ndoye, and even Chris Wood adapt to his style. The big question is whether Forest’s defence can handle it.

I am of the opinion that Espiritu's departure from Nottingham will not reflect well on the team. Postecoglou is a peculiar coach, yes, he likes to play attacking football and often forgets about defense, maybe it is more pleasant to watch such games, but for the team it will not bring better results. Nottingham has always proceeded from a good game in defense, now they will have to rebuild their tactics with a new coach, and if they concede but at the same time they did not score much, then everything will not be as rosy as it was last season.

Evangelos Marinakis' statement that Nottingham Forest brought in Ange because of his consistent and proven trophy-winning track record is certainly a statement we can read on Fabrizio Romano's account.

This statement can give rise to both positive and negative perceptions. Considering the track record of previous coaches, Espirito has been unable to deliver trophies to the teams he coached in England, but during his time in Portugal, Nuno was a relatively successful coach, including delivering the UEFA Europa League trophy to Porto.
Furthermore, Ange only managed the Europa League trophy with Tottenham, and that was for two seasons.
