I'm online only... I assume I'm going to get such a stomach ache from the drivel within 10 minutes that I'll give up. But we will see.
opening comment by PM sounds well practiced as opposed to Monday's first session.
LOL Brennan in charge of teaching Doneil Henry
Paul Beirne says there's a "leadership void," that Anselmi is hiring a "president" or something like that.
Mariner is asked, what's the biggest mistake he made personally during the past season. He does not answer the question. He starts talking first about injuries. Unbelievable.
Rongen thinks TFC is the Man U of North America... lol
“Years have gone by and I’ve finally learned to accept myself for who I am: a beggar for good football.
I go about the world, hand outstretched, and in the stadiums I plead: ‘A pretty move, for the love of God.’
And when good football happens, I give thanks for the miracle and I don’t give a damn which team or country performs it.”

Looking at youth academy residency in 2014 ish

Mariner mentioned Sweden specifically for his scouting trip

did anyone pick up a tfc academy book that they were giving away
Not sure that is the guy I want young players learning from.
My lasting memory of him will always be starting 10-15 yards out of position and basically ensuring the opposing team always had room to cross the ball in. Then he'd turn around and give it to his teammates for things THEY were screwing up.
Leadership is one thing, but when you're the most chronic offender, maybe best to keep your mouth shut.
^I understand the disappointment flavouring your opinion of that player as a coach but let's remember they're 2 entirely different jobs. Those that can't do can still be incredible teachers, Jose.
FORMER FULL TIME KOOL-AID DRINKER
My bigger concern with this is what I've heard around here (from Denime I think) about Brennan being a really bad coach.

Jimmy is a fucking politician of the highest order, he's part of the problem in that sense. I do agree that experienced players of any level can aid in development though
There's nothing wrong with Jim Brennan. I didn't mind him as a player either. He's a fairly good level MLS defender. And people need to stop corrolating "good players" with "good coaches". Steve Bruce was one of the best defenders around, but he's a hopeless coach, and even worse at coaching defence! His teams always leak goals like a seive!
