We will soon be in a position where we have more backroom staff than players. Out of control. This will no doubt contribute to a significant financial loss in the accounts.

There is some sh1t written on here at times..

Quick look at MK Dons has them having a sporting director, data scentist, technical scout, head of performance analysis, first team analyst, head of technical scouting, 2 strength and conditioning staff, a head of performance and medicine, 2 sports therapists, 2 kit folk and that’s on top of the manager and his 2 assistants,

That’s very very normal for any efl club.

True! A mate of mine is part of that group, City assigns one analyst per player at every game, constantly monitoring individual performance on the pitch.

Having dedicated coaches and analysts adds massive value to how well the team performs overall.

Some people still think a football team just needs a manager and an assistant. Maybe that was enough back in the 1940s!

Yep don’t see his issue with how many staff we have- it’s not as though he’s paying their wages!

I dont see the issue with half the stuff he whines about which probably says all you need to know about why he is posting what he does. It all just seems to be a wind up.
