Ange Postekoglu, one of the coaches who has worked at teams like Tottenham Hotspur and Nottingham Forest and knows the "ins and outs" of football environment well, spoke directly about Manchester United: this club needs a "special" coach, not just ordinary ones.
He emphasized that managing Manchester United is one of the most challenging tasks in world football. The reason is simple: this club is always at the center of cameras, headlines, and discussions. If there is one thing - the whole world will discuss it. The second thing is even more noise.
According to Postekoglu, a manager coming to "United" must be prepared for a long journey, not in the mood of "fixing everything in one day." That is: we need someone who can say that we will choose this system, follow this order and discipline, and will not deviate from this path for several years. The pursuit of short-term "quick results" may not work here.
Interestingly, he emphasizes the importance of not only the coach's tactics on the field but also his "match battles." Because at "United" there are more than 100 press conferences, questions and answers, pressure and criticism in a year. In such a situation, a person who comes to leadership should not take harsh words as a burden, should not be spiritually broken, but on the contrary, should be able to stand with the conviction that "I can do this, I will do it myself."
The conclusion is one: "Manchester United" needs not just an ordinary coach - but an iron-nerved, long-planned leader with a unique character. Because in this club, not only the game, but also the daily PR field is a "derby."
