Burndens Bogs Posted March 7, 2020 Posted March 7, 2020 (edited) Amazing that we didn’t tap into that Danish/Scandy market a bit more . Very good technical players, Committed and very professional lads, they very rarely moaned if not selected. Edited March 7, 2020 by Burndens Bogs Quote

Our pick of Icelandic players alone was incredible given their (lack of) standing internationally at the time. Quote
Burndens Bogs Posted March 8, 2020 Posted March 8, 2020 (edited) I think that Scandy/Danish route is something that could still be explored even now. Their players don’t seem to have that “Billy big Bollocks” attitude that some of out British players have and like i said earlier, they are very committed professionals and very good technically. Wolves have done it with the Portuguese lads, maybe we could do it with the young Danish/Swedish/Norwegian and Icelandic fellas.Got to be better than the kids/bids and journeymen we’re using now ffs.

Moderators Horwich Posted March 9, 2020 Moderators Posted March 9, 2020 A 5-0 dicking for the u23s today. Must be one of the worst sides ever. north west counties level Quote
Mantra Posted March 9, 2020 Posted March 9, 2020 Not sure if there’s anything to read into with this but if they’re starting coaching playing out from the back it could be an indication of what FV are looking to build long term, what with Tobias Phoenix saying about how you should know what a Bolton team plays like at every age group...

Site Supporter RONNIE PHILLIPS Posted March 9, 2020 Site Supporter Posted March 9, 2020 Playing out from the back is all well & good when you have players that are comfortable with the ball at their feet... Won't have many of those int 4th Division next season 🤔 Quote

Not forgetting the supplemental module 'how to ensure there's no other player within 20yrds of the target man', otherwise that's a whole load of training wasted Edited March 10, 2020 by frank_spencer Quote
Eavesy Posted March 10, 2020 Posted March 10, 2020 Will they be employing people to stand at the side and start booing when someone doesn’t pass forward immediately? No pass on. So passes backwards to retain possession. BOOOOOO Quote

Its league one - and we're miles off being close to good enough to retain the ball and be effective. Quote
