Also Sammy Lee, Someone who players could look up to after all his success with Liverpool. I'm sure both could do a good job for the Club. But I'd still like us to add a young up and coming Dutch Coach to the Staff. Why exactly ??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given the number of times he's been at the ground recently, his past connections and his experience, I think this could well happen. The only fly in the ointment, could be what Middlesbrough and Pearson do (and how quickly that might happen). IF Boro decide they want NIge (big IF !) and Pearson wants the job (likely, if offered, I would think) and Pearson wants Powell as Assistant again - does Powell decide to stay in the Midlands (he lives near Derby) and take a Premier job ?! For me, it would be a no brainer, but we know Nige has 'powers of persuasion' !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holland despite being a small Country has been producing very good Coaches since the 70s and then the Cruyff Days. Koeman is a modern example. They do a lot of 1 to 1 Coaching. Improving the individual player's skills on and with the Ball. Here in the uk we tend to work in units and leaving Players to work on their own skills. I really think a Coach of that quality could bring a lot to our Club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CloudFox Posted 26 May 2017 Share Posted 26 May 2017 Sammy Lee and Chrissy P would work for me. Be great to have Chrissy P back! Would love Berner to come back some day too. Think he would want to build up his managerial experience first though, so should watch his progress for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thracian Posted 26 May 2017 Share Posted 26 May 2017 Ideas, energy, imagination, good communication and motivational qualities, decent demonstrative skills and a thoroughly committed team player is what I'd like us to be looking for in our coaches and while you might think those qualities would be a "given" in everyone being qualified as a coach they're not and not by a long way. Just as in other aspects of teaching there's good and bad to be found and far too many journeymen. Coaching is a highly skilled job and damned difficult to sustain effectively unless you have the energy and commitment to keep evolving ideas and the means of keeping the constant process of coaching interesting and effective. The big problem is avoiding staleness and the feeling that coaching sessions are becoming routine so familiarity breeds contempt. Players are stimulated by different ideas and styles so any situation where the same coach is dealing with the same players all the time can quickly become counter-productive. And yet there needs to be a firm goal both in terms of individual and collective development and constant, verifiable, assessment to show that progress is being made or otherwise. It's no use trying to convince a proven international that he's a lousy crosser of the ball if you can't prove it and then show him exactly how to do the job better - either yourself and through someone else more capable of demonstrating the point. There's not only benefit to be found in rotating coaches within big-group organisations such as Leicester but also in importing guest coaches when possible because even coaches can benefit from new ideas or different ways of putting old ideas across. It's all about mental stimulation really, but always with an effective purpose. Coaching needs to be inspiring and players need to leave the park convinced that they've learned something and are better for it. Poor communicators have no chance but there's also the need for precise rather than expanded communication. Players want to be kicking footballs, not listening to speeches. It's the same with matchday analysis. A good coach needs to know what's going wrong, if anything, and to use he fewest words possible to put it right. As one top manager remarked this week (I forget which), there may be 50 things that could be improved but the key is to focus on the one or two that are most important - simply but surely. Coaching is 100% satisfying but only if you're winning and your players are improving and wearing the smiles of being appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He might not sign on the dotted line, until the owners have agreed everything ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you, I think he was happy to settle for a respectable performance against Athletico rather than going for the win. The second half performance proved that they could have been beaten. But that's Football, decisions, and opinions. I'd like to see the Club give him a performance related Contract for 2 Years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Hazels shorts Posted 30 May 2017 Share Posted 30 May 2017 Problem with Shakey lies in the fact that we have a sycophantic megalomaniacs Director of Football who's football knowledge is very limited. Craig's CV is not that great. The guy if he gets the job need a lot of experienced help IMO. Our side will look nothing like it does now in 2-3 years time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ric Flair Posted 30 May 2017 Share Posted 30 May 2017 I've a feeling Rudkin will be gotten rid of in the next 18 months. What it will take for that to happen might be relegation again but I think his days are numbered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lgfualol Posted 30 May 2017 Share Posted 30 May 2017 I, for one, look forward to Rudkin's last minute ridiculous bids for players in key positions we desperately require after silence for most of the window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
