At this point in his career, the willingness from Conor Hourihane to learn and adapt under Warne has been one of the more impressive parts of the evolution of this team. 3 goals in his last 4 and still running right until the end. Simply put, he’s a very good player.

Warne has a 4yr deal, this squad are all on half that at best. It’s clear where the future lies if given time to get it right. 5 lge games shouldn’t define a manager. It could be tough between now & Jan but the club needs big picture thinking. Short term pain, long term gain…
