Big loss, no doubt. I really hope he's grooming a successor that's going to be able to use all his tricks.
Port supporter here Googling Burgess because I desperately want him back.
Can confirm it’s the man that works the magic, he left us his tricks and appointed a team to replace him; in 2014/15 we were in your position fitness wise and we now struggle to run out quarters.
He supposedly was in close contact with the team he left and giving pointers, but we felt his loss rapidly when he went to Liverpool.
Kane Cornes (yeah yeah [censored] alert) wrote in his autobiography about a random club dinner he went to where a can of Coke was put in front of every player; Burgess had put them there to test the group, and the next day punished the players who drank the cans without thinking.
The guy creates a culture and players respect him.
