Yes there’s some important things being said in these interviews with Sormaz and Clarke.

I think what Clarke is alluding to in that interview is - it’s no good identifying players that fit the Game Model - if you haven’t got an HC that can implement the Game Model.

And that’s exactly why Collins lost his job.

It’s going to be interesting to watch how the Sormaz and Clarke relationship pans out.
Clarke will already know the playing philosophy at the club. How he trains the players to fit the system is going to be interesting.
Personally I’d love to see us carry on where Ismael left off - reverting to the blitzkrieg 343 system.
