    .......... is that he underestimates the quality and physical strength of the players and teams in the English 1st Division.

    That the division shocks him.
    Because when we kick off he won’t be able to change things until January.
    We have some quality players at the club - many of them are too good for the 1st Division - but IMO we don’t have enough quality as yet to see us through a season.

    Unless of course - the younger players that have stepped up are better than what we realise.

    So there's a few things that your concerned about then? Have a day off man.

    Do you honestly think that we will not strengthen before the season kicks off in 3 weeks time?

    Guess we just won’t know till season starts. Maybe the upcoming friendlies might give a better idea of where we are at

    Aren't Hassell and Devaney there to tell him how physical the league is? Plus the players who have played there? And he can watch videos of all the teams from last year to see for himself?

    I don't think there is any evidence that he's underestimating anyone.

    Strendel could perhaps watch the old Olivia Newton John "Physical" video. To remind himself.

    If the staff, players, other videos and Nudger still leave him struggling with the concept.

    Let's get Animal.

    If this is tongue in cheek then fair play.

    If not then God help you.

    I can get behind that.

    No it’s SHTENDELL, which is how I imagine it will be pronounced (waiting for his first RS interview where they will ask him).
