Does VK have his coaching staff yet?

Post by lucs86 » Thu Jun 30, 2022 4:24 pm

I saw rumours a few weeks ago that Craig Bellamy, Simon Davies and some Belgians were coming with VK to be his assistants, coaches, physios, etc. Are any of them through the door yet? Who's taking training?

Massive 4 weeks before the beginning of the season, with hardly any friendlies booked, big player turnover and new methods/ideas to work on.

Craig Bellamy has been taking training from the first day VK arrived. I’ve posted before, I can’t understand why it’s not been announced. Really strange.

I’m waiting to know if Shaun Maloney is involved too, apparently he turned down the Dundee job to join us according to the Scottish Press

I guess he might want to wait to announce the full team in one go. I'll cope without knowing the ins and outs staff wise

We all saw the Adam Phillips photo he deleted with Bellamy, ages ago

I like Bellamy a lot. He’s a maverick and a nut case, but in a good way. He loves football

They are still hidden under Alan pace's invisibility cloak.

I do find it strange, some posters have mentioned that he has been photographed (although later deleted) training the squad. There must be some reason why he’s not being unveiled?

Maybe he was just stepping in to help out or something… really odd that they’ve not announced it.

The VK appointment took long enough, no announcement of backroom team, cancelled friendlies.

The new signings are papering over the cracks because it’s that what most fans are interested in… but something doesn’t feel right about the management side of things.

Bram Geers - was with Kompany at Anderlecht - he was definitely shown on the video when Kompany first arrived.

I used to be the session planner for Rawtenstall Cricket club. They were mainly before games on Friday nights, and after them on Saturdays and Sundays and involved the local bars and the club “stickies” 😀
