Davidioso Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 Found this article on www.readthefirstword.com Carlos Cavahal is a manager on a mission. He has only had one season in English football but it has proved a rewarding one as his Sheffield Wednesday are in a dream position after virtually securing a play off berth to a place in the Premier League. He now needs to build on the green shoots of recovery that have delivered a season that has thrilled Hillsborough with sublime football at times so that he can propel his promising team across the line. Carvahal knows that the task he is facing is monumental as his competitors have had many years of investment and preparation and no end of financial rewards allowing them to field players considered to be of a much higher quality, so Carvahal soon realised that to mount a challenge he had to capture talent that long suffering Owls fans had not seen since the days of Paolo De Canio, who used to beguile opposition defenders. Carvahal managed to sign Fernando Forristieri and Gary Hooper, both of them with superb credentials, for "bargain" fees. He went on to shape a team of promising individuals, some on loan and some like the irrepressible Sam Hutchinson. As he knew the Championship was certainly no easy ride, he built from the back, partly by bringing players over from his native Portugal to complement the players the previous manager Stuart Gray had forged into a back line, where the much experienced Loovens was paired with Lees to create a formidable partnership. Lucas Joao was a particular coup for Cavahal, the young striker is in the Portugal squad for the Euros and his ability to attack and worry defences is a true joy to behold and we're certainly going to be seeing more from him in a Sheffield Wednesday shirt. This is by far the best season Wednesday supporters have enjoyed for 16 long season and we're about to witness the next exhilarating installment on Saturday, as the Owls attempt to get the better of our closest rivals Cardiff City and secure sixth spot on our way to the Premier League. It will be good to finally be back where this massive club belongs. WAWAW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
