It may be next Sunday when he officially takes the reigns at SAFC but is anyone really daft enough to believe his stamp won't be all over this team today. Eric Black is fronting the job but MoN will be the master of it and has spoken to and discussed with all the backroom staff and squad. Far from Wednesday being first contact, imo contact was made weeks ago or else why was he at the Chelsea game last week against wolves? Coincidence or fact finding? He will know more about our squad than most think and this won't just be a stab in the dark. I'm not even going to offer an 11 or a formation because I'm not looking for the usual let's all guess the team today. We have a master tactician at the club and in another 5 games he can start and wheel and deal in the transfer market again. Until then, its more the attitude of the current players I'm looking towards. Of the current team, players like bardsley, brown, vaughan, sessegnon, Bendtner and Larsson will flourish. The likes of O shea will be revitalized, Turner will think he is Alan Hansen and Westwood will be superman. However, as a manager that likes to counter attack with pace, the two players in our squad with genuine pace could be set to blossom more than any are Campbell and Richardson. Keiran will never be a left back imo but he could become a blistering counter attacking left-hand winger/midfield and Campbell, if he has retained that pace, could be the striker we all hoped he would be 18 months ago. Add to these lads not 8 or 9 new faces every window but 1 or 2 key ones (as we should be doing) and Bobs your uncle. We have a plan at last. The ONeill plan starts today people and I for one simply can't wait.
i hope your right mate but i reakon it will be black who is picking the team o'neill might have a word before kick off and maybe at half time, but cant see him picking the team at all
Careful Cest don't mention Bobs. Agree I reckon we have a decent LW in Richardson and hopefully MON will play him there instead of everywhere else on the pitch. It should be an interesting month or so coming.
Just been on sky sports he was contacted 2 months before as he was in the running for the leicester job, which he then backed away from, so he will have seen all the players on video, and have a good understanding now
If he's been watching for a while, he must have danced a jig when he saw the line-up against Brighton...
Moving away from the sheer filth for a sec... I really think that there will no whiff of O'Neill in this team today. For one he physically hasn't had much time to meet the players or do any coaching at all. He has a watching breif and we shouldn't expect the team to have been completely transformed! I'm sure O'Neill will say a few words to motivate though and as so often happens the players will want to be noticed as they are all now on trial under the new boss.
We've just heard it Cestria - Black said that O'Neill only spoke breifly to the players at training. This result has nowt to do with O'Neill.
