Brisbane coach Ange Postecoglou says his side will be unable to re-find their winning consistency so long as they continue to concede the first goal and give the opposition the chance to sit back and make defence their sole priority.
 
 
 
 


Ange Postecoglou took over the role as Brisbane Roar coach under acrimonious circumstances in October 2009 after former Socceroos' coach Frank Farina was sacked following a drink-driving charge. Postecoglou formerly had coaching stints at South Melbourne, had seven years with Australia’s under-20 squad and led Greek club Panachaiki for one season in 2008. Upon his arrival in Brisbane, Postecoglou inherited a decent squad of players however, his managerial technique, reportedly, didn’t sit well with a number of veterans. That paired with the well documented off-field problems saw the Roar finish second last, the worst finish in the club’s A-League history.
