My thanks to the ever-eagle-eyed Jimmy Grievance for the heads-up here.

For me, the emotional investment in this portly fool was entirely undermined after watching his ITV punditry. Angelos was good-humoured, knowledgeable and dare one say it in this age of diversity hires - quite the natural on camera.

At Spurs, he’s been primarily at ease, when rolling out the campfire tales of how he conquered footballing nations that nobody with half a brain would regard as a footballing nation.

When addressing the glaring shortfalls in his squad, which he has let Baldy dictate, he is frequently truculent and short with folks, interspersed with tortuously noisy coughing and throat-clearing fits that didn’t affect any of his ITV broadcasts.

This clip shows the truth, where Ange is shaking his head in dismay, reacting to an open training session, and then when the media training kicks in as he morphs into a corporate gimp.

Dear me.
