It really doesn't matter. Silva had a very low-key career as well. Star players don't always convert into quality manager, nor vice versa. And no Mourinho did not have a better background than that.
Quite easily. He has his UEFA B coaching licence for goalkeeping and outfield. He also coaches on occasion for the FA. He came across very well. Hennessey at Wolves 2005 to 2014 - Decent keeper.
Philip Buckingham @PJBuckingham Get the impression it'll be fun covering Leonid Slutsky's reign at #hcafc. Charming, ebullient and positive. Wore a smile throughout.
Seems to leave a good impression on everybody. It will be interesting to see his demeanour throughout the season when there's a bit more pressure.
Unable to watch the the press conference at the moment, did he have any news on when his assistant would be joining.
I'm at work so can't watch. Is there any timescale on Mason? Is he good to go now? A couple of months to build fitness/confidence?
He doesn't know if he'll even be appointing an assistant, seems to think it's not all that important.
"I'm Simon from the BBC, I'm going to introduce to the level of intelligence you should expect from those that contact our programmes" He's an affable chap is Len.
He said Mason's injury was three times worse than Cech's and they had to be very careful, it doesn't sound like his return is imminent.
I think he said his fitness is good, just the mental recovery that requires patience - it was a pretty traumatic head injury and there'll be a lot of nervousness around that. Time is what's required.
