The Cockerel Crows
Jan Vertonghen & Gylfi Sig both lovely guys. Both seemed genuinely thrilled to be here and very excited about the coming season.
Now at a Q&A with Steffen Freund and Tony Parks. Freund reeling off his coaching experience. "The academy is now at a world class standard".
Parksy reliving his famous penalty saves against Anderlecht in UEFA Cup Final."My Mum could of taken a better penalty than the second one!"
Parks on keepers: "Carlo quick with feet, Gomes v athletic, Brad steady Eddie. Good mix. Decent prospects coming through in Archer & Miles".
Q from floor re: strikers. Freund mentioning Coulibaly for the third time in a few mins. Seems to rate him. "We need a new striker though".
Tony Parks - "Gareth Bale wants to lose the no 3 shirt. Doesn't want no. 9 it was just the only number free on tour. All will be revealed"
Parks: "We're always looking to improve. Brad 41, Carlo 39. Hugo Lloris is a contender. Watched him since 16. I like him. Has the talent".
Parks "Coaches have put extra effort into set plays pre season". Freund bigging up Sig "Fantastic ability, you'll be suprised by his talent"
"2 seasons in a row we blew out at end, why?" TP:"Heavy schedule, didn't rotate 2 yrs ago. Last year HR court & Eng rumours were factor imo"
Parks giving off feeling AVB is going to give Europa a real go this season: "He's won it before. Players has been told it's very important".
"How involved is Joe Lewis?" TP - "Ive never met him. He owns club & let's Daniel run it.". SF jokes "Who the f*** is Joe Lewis" - laughter!
Q&A over. Honest answers from Freund & Parks. Seem to be singing from same hymnsheet. Hi to all new followers, hope you've enjoyed updates.
