I think he is the right man for the relegation battle just not so sure long term and has he bought into the long term vision of the club etc. Although to be fair he probably developed more players than Robbo ever did just look and Cole and Carlos for example.
Our midfielders might start making runs into the box now.

Phillips played his best games under Derek and Wildig also.

He has improved 1000% over the season and I sincerely hope that he doesn't feel under any pressure under DA.
Interestingly he's the one player when at Bradford who came in for on going criticism. DA obviously watched him when they played us last season and decided that he wasn't the kind of central defender he wanted. Hope that O'Connor and DA work together for the good of our club.....and survival.
Any chance of some photos from the training ground showing DA putting his stamp on our training methods for the first or should that be second time.....again...
