Why angry Ange Postecoglou is trapped in his own delusional world, writes CRAIG HOPE

Daily Mail  

Eddie Howe found a different way to win here at Tottenham. Ange Postecoglou should learn from Eddie Howe's flexibility rather than sticking with the same way to lose Howe has made changes and Newcastle have now moved 11 points clear of Tottenham Forcing back-up goalkeepers to play like Guglielmo Vicario shows Postecoglou’s stubbornness A good manager, a not-so-good manager. He would also do well to observe Howe’s post-match demeanour in light of defeats, of which the Newcastle boss has suffered five this season. On Saturday afternoon at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, an angry Postecoglou - ‘the angriest I have ever been’ - showed his teeth and appeared to jump the shark, claiming that: ’On another day, on a fair and even playing ground, we would have won that game, it’s as simple as that.’ Postecoglou claimed he was 'the angriest I have ever been' following the defeat to Newcastle Considering their injuries, Spurs must adapt - Postecoglou is not managing Celtic anymore Howe admitted that you 'always evolve as a coach' and that it would be 'an issue' not to His grievance was with Newcastle’s equalising goal in the sixth minute when the ball hit Joelinton’s hand before Bruno Guimaraes played a pass to Anthony Gordon and he scored, levelling Dominic Solanke’s fourth-minute opener. Meanwhile, two players seemingly suited to Postecoglou’s front-foot, attacking principles - James Maddison and Heung-Min Son - were kept on the bench until after the hour.
