Lots. They are ready for KO. He's confident that he has brought in better, stronger players who all want to play for the shirt. They are working well as a unit. They are physically and mentally ready for tomorrow. He knows his team for tomorrow. Praises Muller to the skies. Went to Norway with Kelham O'Hanlon to watch him. Confident, Goalkeeper has all main attributes and loves to come for crosses with an excellent distribution. Ideal for Championship - Letheren may go out on loan, he will assess that. Happy with the way the pre-season has panned out. No language problems as all players speak English except Mosto and Souza can speak fluent English and Spanish and translates for him. Coventry have been watched but they are concentrating on what BFC do and how we play. Not worried about pre-season results as they mean nothing all about how the players adapted to the fitness etc. Confident that by 5pm there will be a new face in the Club. Players working well as a unit. They are a great bunch of lads, the Portugal trip helped them to bond. He now has competition for places which pleases him, better stronger, quicker players. Praises Academy especially Luke Potter who has a big future in the game. What matters is tomorrow at 3pm we do everything professionally to prepare the players for 3pm. We give them the tools and tactics We don't want to be looking over our shoulders. We need to be higher and then there is only one way looking and that is up
Yeah, it's always a worry at Oakwell, that's why I prefer the home games.</p> I'm sure some folk just go to grumble and get on the players' backs</p>
Thanks for typing all that!! Sounds good. Personally I hope Muller plays tomorrow and interesting that he rates Potter highly too. Cheers again
The trouble is re Luke Potter. We all saw him make his debut against West Brom in the last game of the season. He looked lost and the strikers had a field day with him. I felt it was a bit cruel myself, but hopefully it will have given him a taste for the first team and it's obvious that Davey has seen real potential in him.
Having watched loads of academy games I feel qualified to say that Potter will make it. However, he is not a full back. He is a centre half. I feared for the worst when he was picked for the WBA game. He is not ready yet as he is still too impetuous and he is not quite strong enough. It will come.
