Jonathan Woodgate

So there is a good generation of players coming through.

Alan Smith around about this time, Harry Cure, Jonathan Woodgate, Stephen McPhail.

So there is this incredible crop coming through.

So the timing, you know, of Rizdell, and O'Leary and this crop of youngsters come in and it just feels that there's some pretty tasty ingredients on the table to turn something into more than the sum of its parts into a real threat.

I think that must be the case because Leeds will go into some numbers, but they are spending serious money.

I mean, they are the top table in terms of spend.

But the other guy who comes through and who O'Leary brings through almost immediately is Jonathan Woodgate at the back.

He's the other part of that and a member of that FA Youth side.

Scott Parker, good to work with.

Jonathan Woodgate as well.

I was going to say, we forgot about one, mate.

Yeah, Jonathan Woodgate, legend to work with.

Just a fantastic guy.

You had to be on your toes with him because he would sometimes throw in a one-line answer and you expected him to go again and he wouldn't.

Because someone's got to take the next game.

and who's in the building can you imagine you know it's Jonathan Woodgate that's my worry or Fletcher again

if it's Jonathan Woodgate I'm just like I'm not even watching the game on Saturday but I agree with Ed I also think they're probably still deliberating on who's number one choice Because if old Foxtrot Wilcox is trying to get his way and Christian Bavell is obviously going for Nagelsmann, then you've got a problem there already.

And then I think Steve's mentioned an article that's come up in The Telegraph tonight about Howe's compensation.

Yeah, he'd be due compensation apparently if he was to join United.

And to be honest, I felt this way even when we brought in Kerrick and his coaching staff was Steve Holland, Johnny Evans.

Jonathan Woodgate.

I didn't really think this was a group of coaches who were up to date with what was going on in the Premier League today.

And I have felt that that has been corroborated over and over and over again.

With Scott Parker, it was that passionate half-time speech, wasn't it? Albeit, it untangled about four or five games later for him.

With Jonathan Woodgate, it was a simple up the

cherries at the end of an interview.

Sorry, John, by the way, because he was in a dugout when I opened.
