Slot wants his former assistant Etienne Reijnen along as well but he's having trouble getting a work permit. As I understand it, he doesn't have the coaching qualifications required by the PL to obtain a work permit.
What I wouldn't give for merely "summery" (thermometer was placed in sun not shade... It was actually only 95F in the shade when I took that photo) Photo was from early May... It's actually cooled down a little since then and been fairly pleasant. Approx 30C.
Yup. Awaiting word. It's is own fault if he's not been arsed to get his badges so tough imo. The fact we are scouting round trying to find people to fill roles doesn't speak too well to the clubs preparation. All these so called technical directors left in a huff and didn't exactly leave good structures so we now don't have that promote talent from within possibility. I think the lad we got in from benfica will be good if he's working for us and not for a whole fsg level thing that doesn't exist but we need to senior team technical staff sorted. Slot has 2 of his own and imo that's enough and he may make do with head hunted talent. I hope we promote someone to elite development coach soon. Doesn't look like we will though.
Not sure I want a section for this stuff but commercial deals are about the only announcements being made (very bad for world wide fan engagement right now) First we had the utterly pointless japan air announcement as our official air carrier hook up. The only person associated with lfc that will fly Japan air is likely endo. Now https://www.liverpoolfc.com/news/lfc-and-husqvarna-break-new-ground-unique-global-partnership Our lawnmower of choice. I kid you not.
Couple more coaching announcements. One internal promotion which I like to see. One big appointment for the elite development coach, Aaron Briggs brought in as ex city coach who is another young gun type coach.
Far less exciting news is seeing Johnny Heitinga linked as the other new coach Was at West sham under moyes.
Have no opinion whatsoever. If manager thinks he’s good and will do a job then works for me. the Everton thing means nothing.
