    Interesting stuff. That is some amount of detail put into analysis of the opposition.

    Not much really, with the exception of taking charge of more training sessions and offering advice on the touchline.

    I would expect Rodgers to go with 2 assistants though.

    Davies is quite young and still learning.

    He may only be 31 but he has been a coach since he was 20/21 and holds a UEFA Pro Licence. Not sure he has much learning left to do. I imagine there will be at least one other coach appointed. He had some good scouts at Swansea as well.

    On the subject of John Kennedy the work he did with our Youth squad in the Youth Champions league I think shows he has the potential to be a good coach. I don't think anyone in the Deila regime were going to come out smelling of roses so I would give him another chance either with the Development squad or as an assistant coach.

    This appointment shows that we are going in a different direction from anything we have been doing previously. Young and hungry coaches. It would have been easy to pick an ex player with experience. Different approach and is exactly what's needed. I would have seriously worried about this appointment in years gone by. This would not have worked with our Seville squad for example but will work now.

    I would say that is down to age and role.

    I don't think he needs to be vocal as Brendan will be the Big Boss on the touchline.
    And the players might actually like that. Not all players like to be shouted and roared at.

    Absolute spring chicken to be assistant manager at Celtic .

    He is more of an analysist , into his stats and percentages which he feeds back to Brendan . Has a very good background in sports science and performance anaylsis and will take us right up to date.

    Glad to see he is being allowed to appoint his own staff.

    Somebody who actually has the technical knowledge to do what Ronny wanted to do. Happy with that.

    He must have more to offer. I Have been reading that he will be one of the top managers soon. This is his chance to step up!
