Hold on! Hold on!

Yes, MonaghanM is (was) a class act, but this doesn't automatically mean he's going to launch into a successful coaching career.
He's been paid well for what he currently does.
We've just given Briers a job (again, after great service). We'll have Woody and Westwood retiring soon. Are we to instantly make job titles up for these two, as well?
We don't owe these people a living.

So, we let one of the finest tactical players we have had, because we don't owe them a living?

All I will say is you're in for a bit of a shock if you're expecting Clark to play the same game Monaghan plays. If you would like to take words out of context that's fine. Clark plays a running game.

It will be Plan B then. Fine by me.

I didn't take them out of context and that was my point, I noted your use of the word only and responded that he's a bit better than Forrest Gump, a reference to a runner that might not possess other qualities. I also agreed with your praise of Monaghan so there's no need to get touchy, or act like I'm twisting your words.

I recognise that they are not the same type of player and would also agree that if some of that "genius" could be passed on to Clark then what a player we would have. My problem with this is can you coach what Monaghan has got, I'm not so sure as it's about instinctive play and experience not something that could be taught by video or on a whiteboard, otherwise the game would be full of 23 year old Monaghan's and Briers's?

Regards work permit, isn't he marrying an English girl and been here long enough for that to be almost a non issue, he could end up with duel nationality.
