Always thought he was a cracking Appointment. In Vincent's Shadow... But must have played a massive part alongside others this season. Well Done CB.

Yes, well done to Craig and every member of VK's team and of course to the Team Leader, Vincent Kompany. Mr Alan Pace you also deserve all the plaudits coming your way.

Always take note of the people that successful and intelligent leaders surround themselves with.

I also love that Michael Jackson seems such an integral part of the team now, always involved with the coach huddles during the game

that seems to have grown as the season has progressed. Anyone know what role he plays specifically?

Incoming MJ pun in..3.2.1

Isn't MJ defensive coach?

Michael Jackson is listed as a first team coach but Vincent Kompany said some time ago that he’s the defence coach.

Wasn’t sure about Bellamy, but he came across very well on those Anderlecht behind the scenes clips from last season - appeared to be a much more sensitive and reflective character. I should’ve known that Vinny knew what he was doing.

No evidence, but I suspect that Tella's continual improvement over the season has been helped a great deal by CB.

All the backroom staff deserve every plaudit

That's interesting. He's done a good job bringing on our young back line.

Good that there's been an element of continuity between the Dyche & Kompany eras

Aren’t Bellamy and Jackson both first team coaches but one focuses more on the attackers and one on defenders due to the positions they played.
Either way both have played their part, really pleased for Jackson he looked gutted at the end of last season

Why did you think he was a cracking appointment?

Form?

Previous success?

Like Joey....is temperament possibly questionable. But I just had a gut feeling VK saw something in Him that others possibly didn't. So far so Good.

As for Bellamy, or any other coach for that matter, you always have to trust the manager and allow him to bring in the people he wants to work with in the same way that you have to trust him with signings.
