Did Darvel do Celtic a favour when they beat Aberdeen?
Two words came to mind when Everton sacked Frank Lampard last Tuesday. Ange Postecoglou. Everton are a total mess. What Ange inherited at Celtic Park 18 months ago was a club in a similar kind of state, which he duly tidied up in an immaculate fashion.
Postecoglou created fear and alarm when he spoke about Josip Juranovic being right to “maximise his opportunities” and move to Union Berlin. He said: “That’s what all of us have in our careers, a limited time and we want to take opportunities.” Everton have subsequently ignored the Hoops boss to instead rummage through the drawer marked ‘usual suspects’ for Lampard’s replacement. Postecoglou shouldn’t take it personally. It could be the case that the outstanding job he’s done at Celtic has been overlooked due to results like Aberdeen’s Cup exit at the hands of a club from outwith the SPFL.
