I wonder how long he can continue to get away with bad results and worse football. Anyway, JVS's player selection has been hamstrung by injuries and suspension so I am not too worried or critical about that. His tactics on the other hand... I wish the club tried to get Pacheta while he was in Melbourne last month. Edited January 5, 2016 by Jacques Le Cube Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What many of us feel is that our current Head Coach does this at the expense of a hard-nosed approach to winning A-League and FFA Cup matches and hence winning silverware and participating in the Asian Champions League. There is sufficient evidence from this half-season alone to indicate that van 't Schip promotes youth players to the senior squad on a regular basis while overlooking more experienced players in the squad. I'm not suggesting that he does this to deliberately throw away points, but it could be argued that that might be the outcome of some of his decisions. I wasn't referring about JVS's performance per se, rather when searching for the next manager how much weight should the club put on his developing youth talent skills versus lets just win some silverware. Ideally the manager should be able to do both with ease but I don't know how many coaches are able to do that and whether a top flight EPL/La Liga coach is able to do that.

Defibrillator Posted January 5, 2016 Report Share Posted January 5, 2016 I want our NYL coach to develop youth ("what's in a name"?) I want our senior coach to win something by properly utilising this developed youth and ensuring the NYL team is being run to his requirements. Experimentation with clearly underprepared players and not pulling out all stocks to win games is off the table. I would expect the best "youth coaches" described above have an excellent development assistant and are all over and micromanaging the NYL setup. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dylan Posted January 6, 2016 Report Share Posted January 6, 2016 With Guardiola almost certainly going to Manchester. I would wonder if that increases the likely hood of a new manager next season as has been rumoured and that if so, would we seem a desirable destination given that you could effectively be a phone call away Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We hear in the media when agents are flogging players to the A league for marquee spots and guest stints but agents are also indicating to Australian clubs the interest of foreign coaches. How often have we heard clubs say they are conducting a 'Worldwide Search' and there has been interest from all over the world in a vacancy, only to turn around and sign Stubbins, Lowe, Walmsley etc. I can understand clubs not keen on signing foreign coaches, for every Gombau there is a Coolen.

Shahanga Posted January 6, 2016 Report Share Posted January 6, 2016 Gombau is the high point? How many A League titles did he win? 10 dunny seats awarded so far, off the top of my head I count 1 to an imported coach and the rest to Aussies (or foreigners who learnt their trade here). Has to be an Aussie and if Arnold or Ange aren't available, well we should "up the ante" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Factors such as understanding how salary and numbers caps work and A-League rules etc. should be well covered by the local people already on the ground here, and I don't see knowledge of them as a pre-requisite for the Head Coach. Similarly youth coaching and development etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now if CFG wish to bring in what I would term a "master"• then obviously I wouldn't object to a foreigner, but if it's just some journeyman that's a different matter. * has won a major league or tournament (no chance this will happen).

NewConvert Posted April 24, 2016 Report Share Posted April 24, 2016 15 hours ago, Thrillhouse said: that's what i'm hoping for Question on this point - I have noticed that foreign coaches tend to have at least one local assistant or in the case of Popovic who is Australian but his assistants are Spanish + Spider K. Is there an FFA requirement that an assistant has to be a local coach or can they be from anywhere? I accept that if you bring a foreign coach he would need some local knowledge (up and coming youth players, NPL players, etc.) and perhaps that is why they have locals but I wonder if its an FFA requirement.
