I'm not sure if 'watching a few training sessions' suddenly turns a poor manager into a really good one, or visa versa... Surely the benefit from such an activity is more about the fine margins rather than altering someone's fundamental aptitude?
Without wishing to go into full blown MLG mode.... How do you become competitive with someone without being as good as them? Or are we using the word in the sense that I could "compete" with Tyson Fury...?
Eckert said before the Stoke game that he was "close", with a chance of featuring tonight, but more likely versus Millwall... I guess we're about to find how much of that might have been bullshit...
So, to add to Dragan's earlier 'promises' about the quality of the squad, we now have Tonda saying we'll have a squad as good as West Ham's. That's a lot of potential egg on more than one face...
