The Eternal Optimist
Manager
I hope he is better at learning tactics and putting in effort than he was at his school work when I had the good fortune of his company in my class. Nice kid and reasonably polite but very laid back. He wasn’t the star of the football team from what I remember and back then, he didn’t seem to be blessed with skill and predatory instinct. Nevertheless, the PE staff said he had a burst of pace and could drop his shoulder and go past his marker. He was confident to have the ball and would always have a shot although his targeting and composure were erratic. I guess he must’ve had something about him to get a chance in the professional game and fair do, I wish him well. I guess I’ll have to reintroduce myself as his favourite teacher and tell him I had a word in Chrissy’s ear to get him here. Then when he comes good and moves onto bigger and better things, he’ll keep me in mind and get me some VIP tickets for Old Trafford :winking:
