Darren has missed his chance i'm afraid. The idea that Darren needs to sell off unmotivated players clearly shows he is lacking within that area. We are in big trouble. Talk of Rondon leaving is great news - lets get rid of our top scorer and keep and play HRK utter madness. As Darren has not shown if or what restrictions he is working under, I am holding him totally responsible. As he should be.
Phil, BD proved in his 6 games in charge last year that he CAN motivate and unite; I would imagine that THAT strength played a big part in him getting the job.
It's also extremely unlikely that a person new into a HC position is going to come out and complain about any constraints he may be under.
Finally, Rondon leaving..... personally I hope he stays, and I think he will if we don't have a replacement - be that Gayle, or anyone else - lined up. Surely that's what most thinking is, too?
I certainly don't believe "we are in big trouble" at all - we need the team to settle and the style of our new coaching team to become embedded before we can expect to have a true sight of what this season will hold.
We're only 3 points from the top of the table!
