Tottenham-linked Ange Postecoglou has delivered a deep, heartfelt insight into exactly why he loves attacking football so much and does not enjoy setting up his teams to stop the opponent.
The 57-year-old is expected to make the move this week from Celtic, after winning the domestic treble with the Glaswegian side, to north London and Spurs to begin the rebuild at the Premier League club. Tottenham want to return to attacking, attractive football after a few years spent with more glamorous but defensively-minded coaches and Postecoglou's fast and furious possession-based front foot football has been catching the eye of plenty of clubs across Europe.
In a fascinating podcast recorded three years ago for Anthony Hudson's Masterminds - Elite Coach Development series, Postecoglou was asked where his philosophy of football came from. His answer was a long and insightful response, which showed not only how important his Greek father was to his beliefs but also how deep-rooted his commitment to attacking football truly is.
