Ange Postecoglou connection. They're obsessed (compulsively) with his legacy.
I think they jumped the shark with Harry though.

They were already in the quarters before he was appointed and just scraped past Bangkok Utd with Harry in charge.
Let's touch base again in 6 months.

Great players don't often make great coaches.

The best Aussie player who has gone down the coaching pathway. Not worked out for him so far.

Good players don't necessarily make good coaches.

In fact, very rarely. The really good players are intuitive I think, they do things without really knowing how or why, that's almost impossible to coach.
