He's very impressed with the squad. He knows what he needs to do This makes me unspeakably aroused. Give it a few games and I’m sure these players will have you limper than a rotten lettuce leaf!

They all looked to be buying into it. Orange bibs are players he’s going to start tomorrow perhaps? Some real surprises if so. Junior, Mmaee, Lowe and Baker all starting.

Be amazed if Lowe started, I think Jojic may figure. He amazing said, right backs to the right back position, not rounds pegs into square holes.

Probably a bridge too far but has he mentioned what he thinks of the squad he’s inherited? He's very impressed with the squad. He knows what he needs to do The bit he needs to do....somehow....is to avoid us having 23 shots and not scoring and them having 1 and scoring. Simples. Like you have said, Confidence is a huge thing.

Nice to see Lowe had shorts and a short sleeved tee on. The rest.... pussies.
My favourite bit from recent interviews with Schumacher was; best manager? Howard Kendall. Any player in the world you could have playing today? Kante.
Much better than the usual tripe (HK was immense for us as a player, we missed out as a manager).

Fuck me, it’s like he actually knows what he is doing. Quite how Neil managed to shoehorn so many players into so many systems that didn’t suit them is a mystery. If the mindset is forward, forward, forward then I’m all for it. Can’t wait for tomorrow.

In fairness I’m always impressed by the new managers training sessions, looked like Neil had them training hard and look how that turned out…
Hopefully this lad is different

He knows what he needs to do Please make sure he knows a CB ideally left footed. A left back and a goal keeper are high on the list. Hopefully he’s told you he knows Mmaee will score goals and we don’t need to waste money there.

When telling the players the positions to go in he tells Junho to play 8, which is a refreshing change from the wing at least. I noticed this, perhaps the thinking is: Burger Bae Pearson with Bae having the licence to support the striker? Ties in with the 4-3-3 he championed at Plymouth. If so Schuey can shag me already I don’t even care. Pearson banned no?

They actually train together? If the last manager had tried this he may still be in a job.

I am so excited, i really am all in on this one, its all so refreshing, he seems driven & genuinely pleased to be here. He seems like a guy who will stay true to himself & not do as others have & change approach because they are at a bigger club. Feels like the skill set of our more attacking talents might fir his way of doing things like a glove
