David Unsworth appreciation thread

[DualityNSNO]

Really?

Yup, very well ran and organised academy with good players coming through quite often and new prospective players being brought in at early ages.

The other teams signed top youth players that were hardly home grown!

As good a job as he is doing with the U23's, he has no real experience of 1st team management.

Let's not get too carried away.

Doin a fantastic job though.

He actually has a 100% record as a first team manager.

#Impressive

Not sure if I'd rather he left and went and managed a Championship team or something. Would be in two minds about making him next manager.

 

[BillLovesRoo]

My point remains that it is the quality and experience of a putative manager that is paramount not the teams he has played for previously.Unsworth seriously lacks experience and consequently would be a massive and disappointing gamble with the future of our club.

A gamble worth taking? What is the alternative? Another "career" manager like Koeman, looking at the short term and not concerned about any mess he may leave behind?

Yup, these lads also won the u18s league a couple years previous were they beat man city in the play off final. Jones, Connolly, Davies, Walsh, Williams, Duffus, Charsley, Dowell all involved. With the likes of Kenny already in the u21s at the time
If it tells us one thing though, along with international recognition, the dallas cup etc. This group are serial winners,

But ours were better Joey, that's the point!

Down to our manager of the under 23s?

Similar to Big Sam and England.

Down to them being better as a team and a unit than the rest, as they won U18 champs before that, core remained the same.

Unsy played a role like, but might flop massively in the Prem and then what?

 

[argietoffee]

Very hard for a career manager to convince outstanding young talent to stay with us when the kids know that Mr. Career Manager will be gone faster than a hot snot at the first tempting offer that massages his ego.

May do better than RK spending less money might rid of us of surplus expensive players!

Bet you were a £ behind him in the money banklol

 

[dholliday]

I still prefer him over Koeman

I don’t understand Joey.
