Thanks for the reply, it's not often people recognise the team behind the figurehead.

Bit like o Neil without his assistant (forget his name) or Clough without Taylor
Most top managers have always praised their coaches. An awful lot of ex players will talk about the coaches not the manager. Head coaches are much more involved in training, but players still have more interaction with assitant coaches. It is not uncommon for 4 or 5 coaches to be on the grass with players.

I work as an assitant coach for mens team, and a head coach for an under age team in the same club. My real role, in both, is individual player development. When I coach with the first team I am often coaching midfield, whilst others coach attackers and others defence. It is all small game stuff we do, but each of us have our grouo we are working on. Our head coach crosses it all, but defers massively to us.

Thank you again, I find all this fascinating as I often wonder about how it all works
 
Unless someone can quote actual figures no-one can say whether for sure if he was paid the "market rate" or not. All comments are just based on personal opinions or hearsay.

Hearsay, remember them?Golden age of 21st century talent shows.
 
I would have loved Keane last time, but I don't think he's right for us right now.

Best thing about Keane is that you can imagine him coming in and scaring the players into playing well. Taking them by the scruff of the neck sort of thing.

That's not what we need this time. For once, we're looking for a new manager whilst we're on an upwards trajectory. The players just need a coach to come in and keep them playing the same way they already are.
 
Someone here mentioned Mowbray as a possible for Academy Head or helping a younger manager. Wouldn't mind that so much especially the former.
Not the main man for me - too much in the Parky and Grayson cheapskate and boring mould.
