Just got round to listening. As always, a really balanced interview that got some really honest and insightful answers. Well done.

Never saw him play but also enjoyed the Joe Mayo interview too.

On Ethan Coleman: "He came with a big reputation, we paid the most money we’ve ever paid for someone during my time at the club. I would never say never because he’s got 18 months left on his contract but if I had to give a decision now I’d say we’ve got that one wrong.”

Not advocating it but it does make you wonder that given a chance in the current midfield there may be a great player there. Obviously could make the case for any player on that basis but given the tremendous form of Happe/Sweeney/Brown it does make you think what is possible with hard work, luck and opportunity.

Can't see it tbh, the difference between Coleman and El Mizouni is huge, best part of two divisions in terms of vision, passing ability and speed of execution. RW sussed that quickly and said he needed better quality on the ball to play out from CDM.

Also interesting that Brown has found his role coming on for Pratley whereas we were led to believe both of Coleman and Brown were brought in to fix the CDM issues last season. Again RW knew we had too many CMs playing the same role and we now boss the middle of the park after changing up the personnel. Lost count of how many times that was said on here, sometimes the know-nothing amateurs on the forums do get it right after all

Indeed. This statement alone is enough to make you wonder...
