Btw oskar, do you know whether Rene has taken up a position as the skills coach again? Or is he being lined up to manage the reserves or one of the youth teams?
I'm very interested in seeing the batch of kids he first started working with coming through the academy. It seems like the focus on skills training could just be what English academies are lacking at the moment.
He is now the skill coach for all age groups and the reserves and the senior team.
Because of the reduction of teams in the Reserve League McClair will continue with the Reserves.
I agree with Rene babies, already we can see even the defenders have great skills.
