I know it's early days but... 1. It looks like he values wide play. Last season we did at times lack width. A number of assists came from the wings and Dallas aside, the crosses were low which I think will suit Cole, who, if he plays 40 games will get 20 goals 2. He looks hard and if Barton tries owt with him in the tunnel next week, he's in for a Glasgow kiss
Time will tell if he is better, but he has made a better start. Then again, he had a team with a winning mentality trather than a team who had been relegated and ripped apart. Agree on the Barton bit, he'd come off worse no doubt, but then he's a coward who preys on those weaker than himself.
Way too early to make any sort of Comparison we looked great at QPR under schopp for example He definitely gave a good half time team talk though and early signs look promising No way will Barton have a go at him he wouldnt dare
If Barton is in the tunnel next week he's got more than Collin's Glasgow kiss to worry about because he is supposed to be banned from being there.
What I like is he subbed off Kitching. Game was won so let's save a key player. Even when we were comfortably beating teams last year, Micky Long Haul didn't sub off Mads.
