Welcome Charlie Adam

He has, he played for Rangers.

Hey!!!

It was Charlie's fault that the draught excluder was brought into free kicks!

Seen a lot of people online suggesting that he's a mad choice considering that he 'was never great at taking set pieces himself'..

Whether coaches were actually any good at the thing they're teaching themselves doesn't make that much a difference, surely? just like how you see plenty of managers out there who played at a very high level in the game not really transferring that. We've been managed by two such cases ourselves in recent years..

He's obviously been working on his coaching chops ever since he retired from playing, so if he's been identified as having a particular set of credentials to his name (in this case, set pieces) then fair play - give him a go. The way I see it, the more that this lot get coached across all aspects of the game, the better.

I read that first as working on his PORK CHOPS mate, first thought was yeah about twenty of them a day he's been tucking into.

Tbh if the opponent has a free kick the last seconds can we sub him on and use him on a one man wall, be harder to get around him than the great wall of China

….a bit ironic that we announce a new set-piece coach the day before our main set-piece taker is ruled out for a lengthy period.

 

[laudo9]

He also specialises in getting free kicks!

Sounds like he’s only got a deal till the Summer as a sort of trial period.

The oldest coach at Everton. I was shocked when i looked at him and then googled he is only 39.

He's here to get a bit of walking about money for a few months.

'Set piece coach'.

Yes but is it better than consulting Gary Birtles over a pint and a packet of crisps?
