people wondering how this new fella coming in will affect KS...looking at the way this club has changed since KLD came in i am of the opinion that KS was not only well aware that such an appointment would be needed (more eyes/legs to work with) but that he may well have had a big say in the process. maybe one of his visits was to see this lad and welcome him aboard, either way i doubt KLD would 'want rid of' KS simply because he has been very good at his job, just being a premier league club now needs more work going on and having a good european head and knowledge on the staff is an excellent move. i also think that we will see little in the way of transfers for a week or two yet although there will be contacts made and possible agreements made but we do tend to keep them quiet until the club is ready to 'spring' them, on us.
It’s easy man, if pull off a worldly signing we need to give FG the credit, if it starts to go down the pan we just need to tweet abuse at KS
Since we are starving for actual links to good players I'll give you the least concrete link possible.
Some still look for evidence KLD is ripping the club off! Madness! The club was talked about by journalists ad being a joke among other clubs it was run that poorly! The change is night and day! Clubs trust us with their young talent, young talent sees us as a club to progress if they looking for a perm move to help them make the next step in their career, no one see the club as a joke in the market and then there is the pr side it was so professional atthe end of the season it was like seeing stuff from a different club. Then their is the new kits, bespoke to a level that only the likes of Man Utd, Liverpool, Barcelona, Madrid usually get.
I’d like him in our system in all fairness Him and Ballard would be affective box defenders and that probably what we’re going to need I would like one defender that allows us to play a bit more progressively also
Just more on this. He’s slow and if we played front foot he’d get tortured on the break but if we’re looking at a squad option CB he’s better than both mepham and tanganga. He could help defend our box when under pressure and that’s fine but I wouldn’t be happy if he’s expected to start every week. I feel like that’s a bad move as he’s limited as a footballer but certainly has benefits to the system as a rotation option
I reckon somebody has gone on wikipedia and made some educated punts in an attempt to luck out and become seen as ITK
I clarified in post above I wouldn’t expect him to start every week but to come on and see games out or games when we’re expected to be under loads of box pressure it’s good. if he’s starting every week we’re likely ****ed or it’s an RLB system masterclass
