Alan Sheehan-Manager for Next Season

[sainthelens]

Sheehan has worked wonders in fairness, but it's a new scenario looming for him, and an even bigger test than he's just had.
I'm no harbinger of doom, but we've all endured enough false dawns and whilst I'm desperate for him/us to get off to a flyer come August, I have a lingering fear he's not for us. Jesus I'm hoping I'm wrong, call it a nagging doubt but bringing in 4/5 decent signings am just not sure that that will suit what he's just inherited.

The positive with Sheehan is that he’s not committed to protecting possession at all costs. Too many coaches these days are stuck to that ideology which results in a shit watch (and doesn’t necessarily bring results either). If it makes trips to the Swansea.com more enjoyable, I’m all for it.

He’s improved the defence and also seems able to motivate the players, unlike at least his last 2-3 predecessors.

We’ll see. Recruitment is going to have a big bearing on whether we can kick on. Get that right and Sheehan has shown he can organise and motivate, which is half the battle.
