I do think a gegenpress is the way, lord knows our midfield and defence can’t win the ball back, maybe the forwards will have better luck.
How much he didn’t want to play Sheff Utd or Burnley presumably
Does anyone actually believe this rubbish, that the announcement was delayed to avoid difficult games?
Great player, average coaching record, but Claire said he was brilliant in his interview. Hope it does well in the future. Broke the Villa hoodoo.Same here; he was a key figure of the 1997-2000 CCFC team that was around when I first started supporting the club, and it's always a thrill when a former player returns as a coach. Shame it hasn't worked out
Whilst I would love to agree with you, history would indicate UK ex quality players usually are not great managers/head coaches. We will see. Need to wait and see.Happy with this. If you want a coach to bring out the best of what you've got, who better than a man who has lived it. I'm certain the players will want to impress him. I think we will see a lot of fringe players stepping up. New slate and some much needed freshness
Yeah, I thought that too.Some of the coaches don't exactly look happy.
A few on here probably do, yes.Does anyone actually believe this rubbish, that the announcement was delayed to avoid difficult games?
There is no hard and fast rule at all. The most successful current manager in football played at the highest level and played for his country.Whilst I would love to agree with you, history would indicate UK ex quality players usually are not great managers/head coaches. We will see. Need to wait and see.
Pretty sure that isn't trueNo talks with doig about expectations this season or about January?
Bit weird
Spoke well.On SSN now.
I'm just quoting what was said in the telegraph from the press conferencePretty sure that isn't true
He's in coventry , we look a bit weird and maybe he's scared ?I thought he sounded nervous
He's not going to comment on January until he's seen what he's working with for a few weeks is he?
I read that FL said Simms would never play for him again at Everton. Will be interesting how this plays out.Maybe, but he could never have expected Simms to fall badly from last season's achievements, or equate for Sheaf being injured and seemingly still carrying a knock (Saddles said he was getting pain killing injections).
MVE's form has dropped too.
Players come in and out of form. It happens everywhere.
Sheaf and MVE are both very good players. They haven't been showing it of late though. And we have now had 3 games without Robins and still their performances haven't matched last year.
I am not surprised he said to reign in expectations.
Some players this season just haven't competed at the same levels they did last season.
Based on that he comes across brilliantly, handled every question,especially the robins one, that was a class answer, if he coaches as good as he talks we’ll be fine, can’t not like him, even if we struggle to start with, just stick with himOn SSN now.
To be fair simms won't be playing for anybody of note if he doesn't sort his form or attitude outI read that FL said Simms would never play for him again at Everton. Will be interesting how this plays out.
King believes we've got a good deck of players so why would he make big commitments to January. I should imagine it's been discussed and better for the morale of the squad to not mention it.He said no discussions in relation to January , I just assumed that was something that may come up in talks in regards to the teams position and transfer policy
He is not doing his job properly if he hasn't. Minimum requirement for any job these days.I wonder how much homework he has done and what knowledge he has of our current squad players to hit the ground running

Without Adi. Think the quality of the new coaches is also crucial.I think writing someone off because they used to be a world class player is frankly silly.
FL’s track record is mixed. So was Marks before he rejoined us.
