The model is clear that we don't need a 'manager' and the head coach will be part of a wider team. Therefore, we seem to be aiming for the best coach and fledgling leader rather than best manager.

Getting someone who has learnt from some of the best has worked well for other clubs. Maresca, Arteta, Corberan, Kompany etc. have all done well having been mentored by a top coach.

Interesting that on twitter (and in my own mind too), Ryan Mason is an underwhelming pick but when we were linked with Heitinga it was exciting. Yet career-wise both have been Assistants to top managers and both have had very small stints as interim managers.

This Ramsay seems exciting to listen to and has also had a good coaching career. Again, it feels like he's more of a draw than Mason, but a stint at Minnesota does very little to prepare him for being manager in the championship.

In a nutshell, I have no issue with any of these assistants to top coaches, like Lijnders, Mason, Ramsey or Heitinga.
