Ange Postecoglou spoke brilliantly about mental health in football.
"I think we do understand it, it is just we ignore it. Who in their life doesn't have something that is stressful? I have lived 58 years now and there has never been a time in my life where everything is perfect," he explained viaPostecoglou then brought up the death of his father three years ago and stated that footballers are not immune from mental health struggles."I lost my father three years ago and he should have been here for the journey, so I have got to deal with it.
boss added."It could be a family member, a health issue, a financial issue because there is always something and footballers are not immune from that."Sometimes I think they fall into the trap to think they are, but they are not. Just because you have money or you are really good at something, life will still find a way to keep a balance so there will be stuff in there that will be stressful or upsetting and you've got to deal with that.
