Starts in January - will he be the one to address our current shortcomings in game management, set piece creativity and defending and loose canonnery???

Yeah, let's hope so. I think it's obvious that Fab needs some help. Not surprising he's not getting everything right, given his age and lack of experience.

Yeh. In my mind he's now favourite to be our next manager

Fab sounds a bit defensive there! A bit “he works for me” not the other way around.

Does it? Or does it just say, "it's difficult to come in mid season so he needs a clearly defined role"? Which, by the way, is pretty much exactly what Hürzeler says.

Senior manager brought in to assist a young inexperienced manager - like El Tel being drafted in to help Robson at Middlesbrough - or succession planning?

He was always going to bring in another assistant. From what I read him joining at this point was just more to do with other commitments rather than some sudden need for help that has appeared. Maybe Fab wanted someone with experience alongside him. Or maybe its just the reality that almost every other coach worth appointing would inevitably be older/more experienced than our 31 year old.

Been wondering if Daniel has made a big difference in recent results and our upturn in form or is it 'just' coincidence?

He might well be a part of it.

For me there are a number of factors contributing to the improvement:

1. Playing Georginio centrally, not trying to squeeze him in at right wing.
2. The emergence of Mintah at right wing along with the return of March and the fast improving Gruda in this position.
3. The ongoing development and experience of Ayari.
4. Having Welbeck back in the team just seems to make other players score.
5. Baleba is slowly becoming more consistent. He can easily be MotM but was putting out too many poor performances. These are fast reducing with age and experience.

6. Three away games in front of noisy, sold-out allocations 😁

It’s number 4, basically.

And just to extend on this.
There was a time, very recently, where it felt like the number one medium term concern was replacing Dunk.
I would say that’s now undoubtedly shifted to replacing Welbeck.
Playing with him and without him is night and day. He’s so fundamental to the way our forwards play and raises the performances of our younger players exponentially. I hope, behind the scenes, we are absolutely focusssing on the data to find a younger version who can come in and replace the big man when that time comes. There is simply nobody at the club remotely close to him in terms of profile.

He'll be very difficult to replace

-incredible attitude
-brilliant mentor to younger players
-big game experience
-chips in with goals
-makes EVERY other attacking player play better
-link up play is second to none

And to top it off he was a free transfer!
