Good call, but unfortunately Cremers is under contract with the Welsh National team.  The first person Bellamy brought in, when he  got the Wales job.  He is the bees knees though when it comes tp Performance Analysis and since Rands (he's just been appointed at Dortmund, so he's not lost any reputation !) left with Cooper, we've had no one doing that job.

Are coaches allowed to work for both international and club teams though? Managers are and I can’t imagine international coaches have more work to do than a manager, surely he could work with us alongside his role?

Shakey did it with us and England, albeit for one game!

Yes, in fact another of Wales’ coaches has recently taken a job at Stoke alongside - https://www.southwalesargus.co.uk/sport/24827198.james-rowberry-combine-new-stoke-job-wales-role/

Looks like Andy Hughes will probably be gone soon as well

The set-piece coach Andy Hughes, the third senior member of the staff Van Nistelrooy inherited, has had his role with the first team dramatically reduced in recent weeks.

That's very interesting. The article is behind a paywall, so I can't see it all, but it does start by talking about Barry-Murphy having a training bust up with someone - who is that with?

 

I'm not surprised about Hughes teetering on the brink - his set pieces are about as effective as a snowman's 'bedroom technique'.

In the lead-up to the Brentford game it is understood that Barry-Murphy clashed with the first-team players over a session he had personally overseen. The row between the players and the coach continued inside the building at Seagrave. It is understood that Barry-Murphy accused the players of not following his instructions. The players responded by saying that the guidance had been unclear. The next day Barry-Murphy apologised to the players and the squad continued preparation.

 

Telegraph Sport has been told that it was a standard dispute on a Premier League training pitch and nothing more than, sources said, “a couple of cross words”. Players and staff were said to have moved on from it the following day.

Remember the bbc article a few days ago. Someone is taking the pi55. 
 

Coach Brian Barry-Murphy (pictured) has made a positive impact since moving to the club in December with the squad impressed with the clarity and quality he brings to the training sessions. Barry-Murphy was Manchester City's elite development squad head coach until last summer.

He's another that's been a disaster at both ends of the pitch. We haven't scored from a Corner in I don't know how long or a free kick since Maddison left.

 

Our positioning for both is equally as bad, Vesty comes forward and offers nothing, Soumare takes up weird poditions and offer nothing despite being one of the tallest and strongest players we have.

Faes isn't any better either when he comes forward.

It seems nobody evaluates these factors in choosing players to sign.

Wish Ruud would have his role dramatically extinguished.
