The Incoming Transfers Everywhere Thread: Summer 2023

[The Saturday Boy]

Yet you've tried to come across as an expert whilst belittling Jinky's opinion.

Maybe educate yourself a bit first eh?

I was not trying JohnnyCV

 

[Dublin Drummer Wolf]

Belittling Jinkys opinion is Johnny's role anyway, hes got years of experience in it

 

[Quirkafleeg]

Have we signed Tik Tok twat yet?

 

[Wolvensam]

Bournemouth fan in the office said it was some of the worst football and game management he'd ever seen.

Tactically inept were his words.

I can't remember the last time I saw a manager that hands on in training sessions. Seems strange nowadays, not a criticism just odd to see.

I did cringe a bit that he was joining in and assisting players.

Pretty sure JL and Nuno very much took a step back and let the coaches take the sessions.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

So long as he doesn't go full Owen Coyle and picking himself for reserve games.

 

[Wolvensam]

Can you imagine the reaction on here if he did

 

[BillyDee]

Hoddle liked to join in and showboat during training sessions iirc?

I always appreciated this from my coaches growing up. Of course, different sports and not at the highest professional level.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Not sure about Wolves but he definitely slagged Beckham off with England for not being able to take a free kick as directed. Yeah Glenn, he's rubbish isn't he. Such a prat.

 

[ROVERT47]

Frustrated ex player, liable to end in tears.

 

[Kenny]

Nuno stepped in when they did things wrong.

No issue from me on him taking control of sessions, after all he is a head coach. We know what we see is the very basics as they won't release much so to go all "PE teacher, embarrassing" is just because you don't rate him and will look for anything to have a jab...and whilst we are doing that....Prefer it if he delegated in game decisions if last Sunday is how he operates though.

Any Coach/Manager - usually played at the highest level, worked under various coaches, UEFA Pro License, coached youth teams, U23s, first teams, worked as assistant. In and around pro-football for most of their lives to some extent.

They're shit and they know nothing.

Bloke in pub/on forum - I know what I'm talking about because I coached kids/scouted a bit/played Sunday League.

Paying “customer” posting his opinion on a forum where people get offended by little faces shocker.

You highlight the difference between coaching kids and professionals perfectly.

I mean, everyone has their own style so I'm not particularly opposed to him joining in if he thinks he can get his ideas across more effectively that way.

I have to say though, listening to the players talk about how much they enjoy training and how hard they're working does send an irrational shiver down my spine. Last time we heard a Wolves squad say similar things was after a certain D. Saunders took over.

*For the avoidance of doubt, I'm not saying that O'Neil is as bad as Saunders, just that players enjoying training doesn't necessarily equal improvement in the pitch.

I'm now imagining Johnny giving Fábio et al a Clough at Leeds style dressing down on his first day

Captain Karl Henry all set for Wolves' air raids

Captain?Karl Henry today urged Wolves to start scoring more from set pieces to make the most of their aerial threat.

Around the time that I mentally put Karl Henry in the bin. Well before he revealed himself as a Tory wanker.

You gonna stop criticising professional politicians and acting like you know more than a former DPP any time soon?
