Jamie O’Hara has taken a dig at Celtic while giving his verdict on Tottenham Hotspur head coach Ange Postecoglou after the defeat to Wolverhampton Wanderers.
The former Tottenham Hotspur player and talkSPORT pundit has noted that Ange Postecoglou needs to modify his style from the one he used at Celtic.
So, what has Jamie O’Hara said about Tottenham Hotspur, Ange Postecoglou and Celtic?
Let’s take a look.
What’s the story?
Well, Tottenham Hotspur lost against Wolverhampton Wanderers in the Premier League on Saturday afternoon.
Spurs took the lead against Wolves after just three minutes, but they conceded two goals in injury time.
On Monday evening, Tottenham went down 4-1 to Chelsea at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in the London derby.
Spurs ended that Premier League match with nine players.
Tottenham also conceded late goals against the Blues.
Former Tottenham player and talkSPORT pundit Jamie O’Hara believes that Spurs head coach Ange Postecoglou needs to move away from his principles a bit.
O’Hara thinks that Tottenham cannot always play gung-ho football like Celtic did under Postecoglou.
The pundit has pointed out that Celtic find it easy to win games in the Scottish Premiership always playing attacking football.
Postecoglou left his managerial role at Celtic in the summer of 2023 to take charge of Tottenham.
O’Hara said on talkSPORT: “I am all for it.
“This is the way we are, this is what we are going to do, this is how we are going to play, I get that, but you are not playing in Scotland and you are Celtic and you are the best team, and the rest of the teams are dog.
“You are playing against top sides.
“Wolves are a good team at home, they have got some players, a good manager.
“If you just keep making stupid mistakes and you keep playing this gung-ho football, a point is not a bad result.”
Former Celtic manager Ange Postecoglou should be flexible at Tottenham Hotspur
In my opinion, former Celtic manager Ange Postecoglou should be flexible about his style and tactics at Tottenham Hotspur.
I applaud Postecoglou for sticking to his principles against Chelsea and Wolves.
However, he needs to try to close matches.
Fair enough, with nine men against Chelsea, there was nothing to lose.
But, against Wolves, they should have won the match or at least drawn it.
Conceding two goals in injury time is not a good sign, even though defender Eric Dier should have done better.
