Ange Postecoglou's high-intensity Celtic tactics are an example every coach can learn from.
That's the view of his former Brisbane Roar star Besart Beshira, who worked with the Parkhead manager during his time at the A-League club. The 37-year-old was in attendance as the Hoops lost to RB Leipzig and Real Madrid in Champions League Group F action earlier this season, but the attack-minded 'Angeball' left him shocked they didn't get more rewards.
Postecoglou has won the Premiership and League Cup since becoming Celtic manager in 2021 and his successor at Yokohama F. Marinos, Kevin Muscat, is another Australian forging a successful management career. Both are inspirations to Berisha but it's the green and white style that's left a big impression on him for his future aspirations. He told Keep Up: "This is incredible. This should be for Australia the goal, the way Ange is doing in Celtic. I visit the two games actually, I was in Leipzig, the Champions League game, and Madrid. And for me, the way he is doing is something very special, which every coach should look up to them.
“Kevin is doing an unbelievable job in Yokohama, and I’m really happy for them. As a player, I had them and I learned so much from them, I pay respect to them because it’s not easy at all.
“Watching now as a young coach, seeing how tough this world this as a coach, it is not easy to achieve such a success with Ange did in Celtic and play winning the title in Scotland and playing a Champions League and being unlucky in Champions League. This is a dream.
"This is the goal for every young coach and you know I cannot (have more) praise (for) both of them and the way they do it. And I know them really well, I know why they have this success, it’s no surprise for me.”
