Tottenham Hotspur manager Ange Postecoglou has said he will likely watch less football once he finishes his coaching career as he continues to admonish VAR following Thursday’s 1-0 defeat to Chelsea.
“It is not the game. Maybe I was influenced by England and the old First Division. I loved the frenetic pace. I could have watched other divisions but it was always England, end-to-end stuff, speed and tempo, I loved that,” Postecoglou told a news conference on Friday.
“I’ve tried to design a game plan that has tempo and energy because I feel if you want people in there, you want them off their seat. There was 12 minutes of extra time yesterday that’s not why VAR was brought in.
“I am the lone voice. I don’t hear anyone else saying that. That’s why I am sat here and saying maybe I am disconnected. When I retire, I will probably watch less football and find another hobby.”
