TBH, sounds like a bit of a formality...like Clough at Derby, he probably wasn't expecting it to be accepted

agree to a certain extent, but to become a top professional footballer you know there movement is gonna be more instinct than drilled. I think avb was the one taking their natural skills away with all the drilling.Park football maybe, not at the top level, drilling movement and formation and instruction into players at this level is crucial.

I think some fans are way to quick to write players off, Remember some of them barely speak english and all of them are playing in a new league. They were always going to need time.
If we got Mussolini could he make all of our passes happen on time?
