Player Valuation: £20m
I have not always been the most fervent fan of DM but when you break down the different qualities of the ideal manager then our Davey comes out top.
1. Seeks out quality players from a lower league and gets them to play to international standard.(Cahill, Jags, Lescott)
2. Gets international level players and gets them to play even better.(Yak, Stevie P, Arteta)
3. Is liked by his players but also respect and fear him.
4. Plays attractive football.(This hasn't always been the case but now he is getting in all the players he wants we are starting to see more expansive play in the formation that he prefers)
5. Can tactically outwit his opponents.(We saw last night how he played Cahill in such a way that it negated the effectiveness of Hamann. Sometimes his substitutions have been lacking. This could be that whatever he used to have on the bench was far less effective than what he had on the pitch. We are starting to see this change for the better also.)
6. Creates stability.(look at how much better he is than Beneathus at rotating and keeping the team playing well.)
Let's not forget that he is doing all this without a full time assistant. DM is getting better and better and we could soon be challenging for all honours consistantly. Being a top four club every season is not a pipe dream anymore and DM should be given the freedom of OUR city for giving us our pride back just as the Dome did.
