I of course want it to work out but this could be a worry in a side that needs shaking up,
“As a captain it was a quiet leadership with him. It was a positive attitude about everything. It was about bringing people on. Not the shouting and the rabble-rousing type of stuff. He would be a quiet individual but inside there would be a lot going on.” |  |

Think I will wait and see how things go. Hopefully we have got it right this time but he certainly has a big job on his hands. |  | | |

Is it what is needed though?
It seems that the days of a new manager coming in and sticking a rocket up the players are long gone, now that the way in which young players are coached and brought on leads them to believe that they're special little flowers.

Agreed.
I did fear that Ashton would be inclined to recruit someone he happened to have worked with before. An unfair assumption on my part. McKenna seems thoughtful and intelligent. I have every confidence that his ears have been open at Man Utd for a number of years. A lot of good will have gone in.
One interesting symbolic factor about McKenna is that he was born after the Bobby Robson ITFC era. The first ITFC boss of whom that's true.
He's as capable of looking at the history books and saying the right things as the next man, but that symbolises a new era of going and grabbing a bright new future, and not /just/ moaning that we're not where we used to be.
Through Mourinho, we have a direct link from McKenna to the great man though. Knowledge passed down through the generations... |  | | |

I hear what you're saying, but I'm encouraged by the fact that he sets a system to beat the opposition. Rather than playing the same system time and again regardless of whether it's working or not.
Perhaps these players need some direction rather than repetition. We'll see... |  | | |

I believe Pert is the more outgoing one of the two - a well-balanced partnership. |  |

He's certainly been around really significant coaches / managers / players.
I'm just a little worried about what he thinks when he starts working with our mob. |  | | |

It's something new that's for sure. I quite like that there's no preconception of what he's capable of. It's a relative unknown which is exciting.
Good luck McKenna! |  | | |

We'll see how it goes
One thing coaching the best youngsters in the country to world class players. Then trying to get Toto to pass the ball 5 yards |  |
