Comment: This will need WP:TNT and a complete re-write in neutral tone. Theroadislong (talk) 15:58, 24 July 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: Possibly notable? It's extremely hard to tell throughout the non-neutral POV and editorializing that is taking place here. This is not currently written like an encyclopedia article. There should be roughly zero quotes in the "Coaching Career" section. Encyclopedia articles shouldn't be saying phrases like "When someone dozed, they’d fall victim to his pranks", "Fast-forward to the subsequent March" or "Galanopoulos’s coaching odyssey has spanned the entire globe".
