He was good at Ajax as well even though he was mostly used as an impact player. His playing career profile is just what we need in a coach in my opinion. Someone that has played and trained in the typical Dutch 4-3-3 style who also has experience in the lower British Leagues. Just weird to see him being a coach, if you knew him a bit as a player it was the last thing you expected.
If we do sign him we should try to get his son as well, he is in the Manu academy and regarded as a huge talent.
