Book excerpt: The definitive biography and ultimate origin story of Ange Postecoglou, the Premier League's most intriguing new manager and instigator of the 'Angeball' phenomenon that has taken the football world by storm. It has taken no time at all for fans of Tottenham Hotspur to fall completely in love with Ange Postecoglou and his 'Angeball' brand of front-foot football. To those who have followed his intriguing journey - from a five-year-old Greek immigrant, to a marauding left-back in the Australian National Soccer League, to a pioneering coach who has won trophies on three different continents - it is no surprise at all. 'Big Ange' did the same thing in Glasgow with Celtic (five trophies in two seasons), and in Japan with Yokohama F Marinos. Before that, he claimed four titles with his boyhood club South Melbourne, travelled the globe with Australia's junior national teams, set a national record with a 36-game unbeaten streak at Brisbane Roar, and guided the 'Socceroos' to their greatest achievement, winning the Asian Cup in 2015. Fuelled by an unshakable belief in himself and his ideas, Postecoglou's unique, mesmerising style of football is inspired by the kind of teams he would enjoy watching as a child with his father. And it works. It turns sceptics into believers and then into full-blown disciples. Drawing on dozens of interviews with Postecoglou and his players, coaches, colleagues, friends and foes, and reams of archival material, Angeball delves into the heart and soul of a man who has reshaped the football landscape. It explores the dynamics behind his coaching brilliance, his complicated relationship with the game in his homeland, and the profound impact he has had on fans worldwide.

Book excerpt: A definitive biography of Angelos Postecoglou, the soccer manager and former player who is the head coach of Premier League club Tottenham Hotspur. When Ange Postecoglou became the first Australian to be appointed manager of an English Premier League Club he introduced his attacking style of play that was dubbed "Angeball" to the British football public. Fans of Celtic in Scotland had already seen it. Fans way back in South Melbourne saw its beginning. Fans in Brisbane, Australia, and Tokyo in Japan had seen it develop. 'Angeball' is a brand of all-out attacking football where goals are gold. It probably had its beginnings when the young son of a Greek migrant and his father were up in the middle of the night in Australia watching English football on TV. That son was Angelos Postecoglou and his path to the top-flight of football coaching began there and then. This is the story of Postecoglou's Angeball, from schoolboy glory at Prahran High School in Melbourne to taking charge of one of England's "Big Six" football clubs.

Download or read book Changing the Game written by Ange Postecoglou and published by Penguin Group Australia. This book was released on 2016-10-03 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ange Postecoglou has been at the centre of football in this country for more than thirty years. In this book, he shows us the game through his eyes, from the changing room to the boardroom, to reveal how Australia must boldly reimagine its place in the world. From his playing days with South Melbourne in the 1980s to coaching the Socceroos to victory in the 2015 Asian Cup, Ange Postecoglou’s uncompromising commitment to success has coincided with the incredible rise of football in this country. He won the old National Soccer League as a player and a coach. Now that Australian football is reaching new heights, Ange is again at the forefront: he’s won back-to-back A-League titles, led the Brisbane Roar to the longest unbeaten run in any code, and the national team to the winner’s podium. He’s a man with strong opinions about how to play and lead. Ange’s story is one of fostering a culture of success, and turning history – or precedent – on its head. He candidly relays key moments and meetings in his life, reflecting on how these have shaped his beliefs and practices, and gives frank views on where the current game is going right and wrong. What’s revealed is a bold and impassioned account of the game he loves.

Book excerpt: A wonderfully insightful analysis of the language of soccer from the creator of footballcliches.comIn what other context do soccer fans use the words "aplomb" or "derisory"? Why don't we use "rifle" as a verb on the other six days of the week? Why do aggrieved midfielders feel the instinctive need to make a giant ball-shaped gesture with both hands after a mistimed tackle is punished? The more Adam Hurrey watched the sport, the more he began to spot the recurring mannerisms, behaviors, opinions, and iconography that were mindlessly repeated in thesports media. Some cliches are ridiculous, some are hilariouslyoutdated, some have survived through their sheer indisputability. Here, featuring gloriously pseudo-scientific diagrams and the inimitable writing style that made footballcliches.com a smash hit, they are covered in all their glory."
