I don’t think you need to be some sort of expert to know that coaching can help players. Even if they are 31.
Coaching perhaps, Butler’s coaching probably not. Which of our players have improved under his ‘coaching’? None, they are all individually equal or worse than previous seasons and the team as a whole is markedly worse. The only ones that could be argued as improved are Fitz, who’s coached by Muzzy or Cal Robert’s, who, it’s fairly obvious, has always had stacks of ability but has been hampered by injuries.
In any case I think Rene’s sentiment is that Beck was not brought in at 31 as a development player. If we wanted a player who needed coaching in order to contribute with goals I’m sure we could have got one for free. Alas we’ve paid for ‘ready to go’ now we’re been told by the oracle of wisdom supermod, that he needs to coached first. Hopefully Michelle paid on her credit card and we can get a refund under section 75 ‘misrepresentation of goods’
