ChaddesdenRam Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 My point on the coaching is that I think if we were to get promoted for the prem we should hire an attacking coach and a defensive coach. Manager - McClaren Assistant - Simpson First team and Goalkeeping - Steele I think 3 is a bit small personally. Even though McClaren is first and foremost a coach I think a couple more would provide more ideas and if we could get a premier league experienced coach that would be invaluable. What are your opinion's? Obviously the most important opinion would be the players and whether they think they are being coached with quality and quantity, but they can't comment on that sort of thing obviously.

Day Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 My opinion is that without knowing what goes on at the Derby County Training Centre in partnership with the University of Derby, none of us can really have an opinion on the quantity of coaches required. For that reason I won't be contributing to this thread any further. I'm out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
May Contain Nuts Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 Always a danger of too many cooks, or some other stupid saying. Going up is still a big IF, it could all fall apart just as easily as it's come together. Let's cross that bridge when we come to it... another stupid saying, but for where we are NOW I don't see the need to add to the setup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posh Ram Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 it depends really. with there being only three coaches, mcclaren has to work with every player - this means there's bound to be a close relationship and good atmosphere between all the players and their manager which can only be a good thing. that being said, a larger number of coaches would make focusing on specific areas much easier - the coaches would have a larger pool of knowledge and there would be enough to work on improving particular sections of the team (e.g. defence) without there being detrimental effects to the rest of the squad's training as a result. at the end of the day we don't watch training, and so we can't say for certain if training would be improved as a result of more coaches. if more were appointed, however, i would like to see the current theme - of coaches who have been involved with the club before - continued.

May Contain Nuts Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 When McClaren was on the moan in he did say they were always looking out for ways to improve us and wouldn't say no to some extra help should the opportunity come up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You want us to hire a new defensive coach even though Shteve is one of the best? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mostyn6 Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 The appointment of Chris Evans as technical thingey was to allow McClaren more time on the coaching pitch than scouting etc. There are 3 main coaches, plus a fitness coach, plus Bill Beswick, plus physio and analyst, plus youth coaches. I think there are enough personally, simply because McClaren's contribution is that of a head coach, and not a office manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uptherams Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 I don't think we need any more football coaches. Just some analysts and the like, but we already have some? People to work closely with the players in the gym and reviewing their performance on and off the pitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ramarena Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 I can't remember which interview it was, but Mac was asked if he would be bringing in more coaching staff, he said he was open to the idea, but whoever came in would have to bring something they didn't already have. Or words to that effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
