I've posted this as a thread in it's own right because, while Jol discusses today's game, he opens up about individual players and his plans for the future. [Note: not in any way Dempsey related] http://vimeo.com/47782242?byline=0&portrait=0&color=ff9933 Facinating and down to earth insights from the boss - gone up a couple rungs on my ambition ladder.
Most amusing point: 4 players left since last January who can score goals: Pogrebnyak, Eddie Johnson (!)... Most relevant point: We don't have a big no. 9 and we need to find something. Most promising point: Talk of Kaca, Frei and Mesca and the need to integrate them into a strong team to allow them to play their role.
I think the most promising point is the entire interview. He's not happy despite a 5-0 win and he knows our weak points. This can only be good.
Most amusing - Mesca - "everytime he played... all our away fans were exciting about him"- Good example of managing expectations, he was almost downbeat about the game.
