The first two weeks of the Seedorf era have gone by, and the
reviews are in: it’s too early to determine anything. But that doesn’t stop us
from discussing them. Whether it is his formation, substitutions, his
motivational skills or ability to impact morale, nothing was off limits on this
podcast. Despite it being too short of a time to really determine anything, we
talk about his apparent impact on the squad for his three short matches in
charge.
