BBM speaks about his new coach

Brian Barry-Murphy:


"Kieran's joined us as coach analyst to work with Matt Jenks.

"When I first came to the club, I didn't know the workings of the club. So what I've been blessed with is Matt Jenks has been there for a long time. He's Cardiff through and through and his level of work is of the highest quality.

"So one of the biggest things I wanted to do with the squad, with the staff, was to secure the numbers of staff who are exceptional at the job, which he is, and to make him really valuable. And Kieran will come in and join that department and work alongside Matt and everything they do.

"He's going to work on all of the analysis with Matt and then as a coach, we'll help with that department.

"A lot of the individual development will be led by him and he will implement what we do in training. So it's a very, very important role.

"But like I said, I've been very blessed to have Matt Jenks in the building to work alongside him and really, he's blowing me away."

All coaches like to choose gheir assistants luckily bbm as been able to choose his and reading what he says he is the kind coach yhat will help him in his task... having a dig about his connection with Rochdale shows complete lack of fairness if Pep wanted him to manage academy for 4yrs who are we to criticise bbm for bringing him in?
