On Hudson:
"I can't speak for the general public but I know within the group he was an awesome coach and a really detailed coach. Every camp was very intense and very detailed and structured. You just knew going into every game that you would be prepared. You knew exactly what the other team's strengths and weaknesses were, the training sessions were always challenging and he always pushed us," he said.
"In terms of the playing group, I think he will be very fondly remembered."
Interesting given the prevailing opinions here...
if our team were as well prepared as durante says, then our players must be pure ratshark
and with all due respect to durante, he hasn't exactly played under any 'greats'
have chris wood or winston reid said anything? if not, then perhaps that speaks volumes
So one player doesn't agree with you, but surely the ones who haven't said anything do? Yeah, clutch at those straws a little tighter.
We played *well* against Peru. I don't know what anyone else here expected but losing 2-0 over 2 legs and getting a draw in Wellington was well above expectations. The only difference between the teams was two brain farts by defenders and the width of a post. I can see a visible difference and progression in the team since Hudson took over, as can every player who has spoken publicly. Obviously others can't, and that's fine.
