Let's just touch on Ange Postacoglou and his tenure. Obviously, it's not gone to plan
00:08
and you mentioned the game remaining. The huge game in the Europa League is one where
00:14
they have to start getting the bums off seats again. When he first came in, that was the
00:18
case. They were playing exciting football, this really relentless stuff where he was
00:25
so stubborn with wanting to attack. You saw it against Chelsea very early on in his tenure
00:31
where the pundits were raving about that and suddenly over time, they're changing their
00:36
opinions to say it hasn't worked at all and he should have changed and adapted to the
00:40
Premier League. He probably hasn't done that really. Just looking at his best and worst
00:45
moments, is there any standouts in terms of best moments under Ange where you felt really
00:51
confident? Because there have been some spells where he has done fairly well.
00:57
Yes, I think, sadly, I don't see a situation now regardless whether he's in the dugout
01:04
in August. I really don't. I think he's sadly going to be let go in the summer. I can just
01:10
see that happening now. Maybe we get it together, we win the Europa League by a miracle. You must
01:16
say on current form, the way we're playing, we don't look anything like Europa League winners
01:20
at the moment. Obviously, that could all change. Football is a funny game. But I don't see a
01:24
situation where he's in charge of the dugout come August. Actually, should the worst happen
01:29
in the second leg against AZ, I do wonder whether that might be it. He might be giving his marching
01:36
orders and we start the rebuild now ahead of next season, look to bring a manager in, ready to come
01:41
in, first of July type approach and we really start the painful rebuild again. That's not what
01:48
I want to see happen. We've had some highs with Andy when he came in. He was a breath of fresh
01:53
air. He talks well. Everybody wants him to succeed. You asked me there about best moments.
01:59
We've had some terrific last-guess wins. The Sheffield United game stands out with the carry
02:05
to the Liverpool game in his first season when we got it right at the end. The crowd was rocking,
02:10
the place was really united and we were re-energised as a club, as a group, as a fan base.
02:17
Even this season, we got to the Etihad and beat Manchester City 4-0. It was a terrific performance.
02:23
But there's been too many lows. Even despite all the injuries, you think to the games against
02:28
Ipswich at home, Leicester at home, one win in 10 in the Premier League at home, five wins in the
02:35
Premier League at home all season and it looks like we're going to finish outside the top eight
02:39
for the first time in 15 years. It's just not good enough and I think the problem is it's the
02:45
same mistakes week after week after week. It's the same errors. We're so up in the midfield that
02:52
the balance is just all wrong and I think at the moment it looks like certain players are starting
02:57
to lose a little bit of belief. That's how it feels looking from the outside in. I could be
03:01
totally wrong on that. That's just an opinion but it does look like one or two players are starting
03:07
to now question what's going on. Sadly, when that starts happening, there's only one way
03:15
and one ending and one outcome, unfortunately. But as I say, it could all turn around and
03:20
hopefully that will be the case. We beat AZ, that gives us a bit of feel-good factor.
03:24
The Premier League form actually isn't too bad on paper. I think it's three wins and a draw
03:28
in the last four with that defeat against Manchester City either side. So actually,
03:33
the league form's not too bad but the league position's abysmal and some of the defeats
03:39
we've had this season have just been terrible. There's just no happy medium. I think that's
03:43
the problem. We either play very, very well. You look at West Ham, Aston Villa, Everton,
03:48
going to the Etihad, going to Old Trafford and then we've had some horrendous defeats. I think
03:54
we've only lost one by more than one goal and I think that tells you everything but quite often
03:59
in games we're so open. We could get the 3-4, we ride our luck and then we come good and we
04:05
could nick it and we just can't carry on like that. It reminds me of Aussie ideal as back in
04:09
the 90s and that didn't last very long. I think if we carry on like that, there's only one way
04:14
it's going to end.
