Stick to Football

You do it very well.

Stick to Football
Ange: Forest Regrets, Spurs Chaos & Beating United in Europe | Stick to Football 117

But don't say, oh, if I was at Man City, I'd play differently.

Stick to Football
Ange: Forest Regrets, Spurs Chaos & Beating United in Europe | Stick to Football 117

No, I'm sorry.

Stick to Football
Ange: Forest Regrets, Spurs Chaos & Beating United in Europe | Stick to Football 117

That doesn't work.

Stick to Football
Ange: Forest Regrets, Spurs Chaos & Beating United in Europe | Stick to Football 117

Because I'm sure whatever team Pep coached along the way, when he was at Barcelona B or whatever...

Stick to Football
Ange: Forest Regrets, Spurs Chaos & Beating United in Europe | Stick to Football 117

And maybe he's not a good example because he's always been at sort of top clubs.

Stick to Football
Ange: Forest Regrets, Spurs Chaos & Beating United in Europe | Stick to Football 117

But those kind of managers, they've always coached the same way.

Stick to Football
Ange: Forest Regrets, Spurs Chaos & Beating United in Europe | Stick to Football 117

And it works the other way too, whereas as soon as you say, and I think Arnie said it a couple of weeks ago, where he says, it's important that my team, I want my teams to play.

Stick to Football
Ange: Forest Regrets, Spurs Chaos & Beating United in Europe | Stick to Football 117

But when you say that, that means you don't want to win.

Stick to Football
Ange: Forest Regrets, Spurs Chaos & Beating United in Europe | Stick to Football 117

And that's wrong as well.

Stick to Football
Ange: Forest Regrets, Spurs Chaos & Beating United in Europe | Stick to Football 117

He wants to play that, but he wants to win as well.

Stick to Football
Ange: Forest Regrets, Spurs Chaos & Beating United in Europe | Stick to Football 117

So it's almost like if you want to win, you actually have to play direct, sort of no-risk football or your other end of the extreme.

Stick to Football
Ange: Forest Regrets, Spurs Chaos & Beating United in Europe | Stick to Football 117

But no-one wants to own a direct, no-risk football because...

Stick to Football
Ange: Forest Regrets, Spurs Chaos & Beating United in Europe | Stick to Football 117

apparently that's not everyone's cup of tea or whatever it is.

Stick to Football
Ange: Forest Regrets, Spurs Chaos & Beating United in Europe | Stick to Football 117

But some of the greatest managers in the world, you look at Antonio, Jose, Diego Simeone, they'll own it.

Stick to Football

Like I said, I watched Allegri play against Milan, play against Como.

Stick to Football
Ange: Forest Regrets, Spurs Chaos & Beating United in Europe | Stick to Football 117

Mate, they had three chances, they scored three goals, they won 3-1 and Cesc had 20 chances and they didn't score.

Stick to Football
Ange: Forest Regrets, Spurs Chaos & Beating United in Europe | Stick to Football 117

Mate, he was owning it.

Stick to Football
Ange: Forest Regrets, Spurs Chaos & Beating United in Europe | Stick to Football 117

He said after the game, he goes, yeah, they can have the possession, they can have the chances, but we won't.

Stick to Football

To be honest, the Premier League nowadays, you have to be anyway.
