Dunno what the old SOD is on in terms of wages but he probably deserves a wage rise based on the Gomez recommendation £6m is going to look like the bargain of the century in time.
Yes absolutely, some trolls on here said that assistant's don't make a difference and tried to put all responsibility on the manager.....
Well that is bullshit - Carlos Quieroz made a massive difference to Man Utd, when he arrived, United started making their wingers cut inside and dribble rather than resorting to whipping in crosses. That change helped them win the Champions League in 2008 - without him, United wouldn't have won.
Now that was an example of an attacking minded assistant. We're fine with leaving the attacking ideas to Brendan, but I think O' Driscoll has a more defensive mindset, and he must have ideas about a solid defensive unit if he has picked out this gem that is Joe Gomez.
Likewise with Benteke, I didn't know what the club were doing bringing him in, but I'm happy to be the fool in this and give due regards to Sean as I really think he has helped us with a solid start so far.
