Steve Bould is number 2!

[Dennis Bendtner]

Success = winning trophies, not bringing youngsters through.

I'm sure you'd agree.

Not for youth teams

Whole point of them is to bring players through.

Bould is a legend no doubt but the article is spot on in saying new blood would have been better.

Whats Queiroz doing these days?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

No that's the first team coaches jobs. It goes youth team coaches -----> reserve team coaches -----> first team coaches.

I agree.

He was a success and his teams had a winning mentality.

How is Bould 'old blood' anyway? He's never even worked with the first team before. If the job was given to Primorac or Lewin or someone you might have a point. Youth development is totally separate.

I tend to find the speculation on how good assistant managers are pretty spurious. We've no idea what happens. Can only comment on obvious things like Queerosh playing a role in Ronaldo going to United. Otherwise what to know? Steve Clarke has garnered a huge rep based on little but guesswork imo.

[Marc Overmars]

Hopefully Bould kicks Wenget's ass when he goes into WUMger mode.

[Master Splinter]

As long as Bould instills the way of the Towel Vest, he will be a big success.

[Olivier's xmas twist]

So the kind of thing Ach would post?

Oh! I see.

Excatly. This is a new Challenge to Bould, and im sure he'll have his own way of doing things.

Bould is definitely a ghel. If we're going by appearance it's a definite upgrade on Elton John.
