While I understand people’s frustrations but even with hindsight I think I’d have kept him on as the club has done on a player coach role. I feel the impact he can have in the dressing room as well as his know how to organise the defence in a coaching role could be vital in bringing up the performances of the other defences. Then on the seemingly rare occasions he does play he raises the level of the team. With the spaces still in the squad I think KC still had the opportunity to bring in another CB if he felt the right player was there who he thought would have improved the team, there seems little point though in signing a player on a similar level to what we have already.
I agree since Sheehan came in we have reduced the number of goals we concede both with him on and off the pitch, this also has a lot to do with better defenders such as Jones and Kioso.
The problem for us now is at the other end, it’s scoring goals, we are the league’s lowest scoring team and I’m really not sure Edmundson is the answer.
Maybe a player coach in that area would help, like in rugby with forwards and backs coaches.
