The German consultant blabbed that Phelan as an assistant coach don't really coach at all. So, the question is: what has been doing for three years? Being a stooge for the former coach? Spreading good vibes? Strange things have been happening there. If the consultant goes back on his word within days, it would mean that the former manager is still alive and kicking. Since the former manager is one of the key persons to guarantee the continued well being of City, I sincerely hope that the consultant grovels and says he has been taken out of context.
