Seem to remember Daniel Ayala been a very good 20 year old defender for us and james Chester at 21 There will be others I can’t remember This team will do better with different coach FACT His obsession to sign slater was nothing short of bizarre. Coventry came up season before and haven’t done too badly have they without making big money signings. Plenty of league one players can make the step up But they need to play in a team that has a system that can be changed and adapted! we don’t I imagine most coaches would love to get their hands on Malik Wilks. A player with skills ability pace but playing like a **** who dived at every opportunity and makes ridiculous decisions Hey ho
Except.... we had loan spaces available to us and what did we take.... a midfielder, to go along with all the other midfielders...
Which is why Steve Bruce walked all those years ago, plus Nigel Adkin. Whilst pollock brain is at the helm we’ve no chance of a decent manger, league standing or, dare I say it, support!
We have some really talented youngsters but they’re raw. I don’t for one second believe coaches like Chris Wilder, Nigel Pearson, Eddie Howe, Valérien Ismaël or even Neil Warnock wouldn’t get more out of this squad of players, particular the younger ones like Wilks, KLP, Greaves etc. We’ve got a League 1 coach in charge of a squad that imo could finish mid-table with a better manager, even with the embargo. Ismaël got a squad of inexperienced youngsters into the play-offs last year. Wilder took Sheffield United to the Prem with the same core of players he started with in League 1.
exactly, we need an experienced manager who can coach these players every day & teach them what they have learnt over many years. But a decent manager expects a decent salary & will want money to spend in the Jan window. We can only pray that the alleged sale of the club actually happens & we get new owners that will fund both of these things
