Originally published at: "He spent days off helping me"; Kristoffer Ajer raves about Celtic coach
Brentford defender Kristoffer Ajer has been raving about Celtic coach John Kennedy and the work he does at Lennoxtown. Ajer spent years at the Bhoys but left for the English Premier League over the summer, where he is playing regularly with the Bees. But he’s been reflecting on his Celtic days and the time spent…
I think the dislike of Kennedy & Strachan are because you never see them move from the bench to give instructions, assist the manager, but instead just milder to the bench and in Strachans case, fiddling around with an iPad. When you look at other teams in the league and around Europe, the coaches & assistants are all working together and communicating to find a solution. You simply don’t get that from Kennedy or Strachan and Ange (and Lennon) look to be carrying the responsibility themselves.
Just my opinion…

KEEP THE FAITH:four_leaf_clover:
Good points made there from Allthingsceltic, spot on. I don’t doubt Kennedy loves the club and works well with the players, so many of them keep saying this. But equally, I’m not sure what Strachan does, apart from look at the ipad. What I mean is, does he also get involved in training…Ange still needs a proper no.2. Kennedy as players have stated, works well one to one or helps with fitness. That’s great. But Ange needs a no.2 as his right hand man, when it comes to stepping up with decisions or influencing set up and coaching
Yes so nice big Kris butters up Kennedy as he was a poor as anyone defending crosses into our box for such a big lad his heading was poor and as for his diving in to tackles and timing it could be really poor in European matches. Who corrected those as it didn’t improve.
Nobody would deny Kennedy is a Celtic man and wants to do well and works hard but so do the staff in the superstore on a match day but they don’t coach the first team.
Good coaches improve players and yes we done well to move on Ajer who’s main strength was his Giraffe like stride that took him up the park well carrying the ball,
