One of the worst mistakes Cocu has made, imo, was to make Bird captain. 19/20 year old leaders are (very) few and far between. I agree with you about his potential and the need for people not to get on his back, but he’s still at the stage, imo, where he’ll benefit from the praise and criticism from an ‘older head’.
Just watched some of United v Chelsea...God it was dull!
