Not as a footballer with GTFC but as a new Sport Science Coach who works as a performance analyst.

Something that Hurst and Bignot always wanted

You got the link mate.

Quoted from zorro_is_a_Mariner

You got the link mate.

Can't find a link as the new GY Telegraph online format is rubbish!!  

Its in the GY Telegraph paper its self

His LinkedIn page
https://www.linkedin.com/in/asser-lutu-994a9351/?ppe=1

Don't think it is what  Hurst or Bignot wanted-didn't they want a coach to improve fitness

Yeah he's a Performance Analyst, not a Strength & Conditioning Coach.

A Town fan on twitter (apologies don't know if on here) has posted a link to this video of Asser:

I think anybody who can make GTFC more competitive is certainly welcome aboard.

I think having that additional help could help with recruitment too.

Still need a s&c coach. Welcome to the club though, if you can help get the best out of our players then you'll be a welcome addition.

It's all good having stats but it's what you do with them that counts, though as they say "what gets measured gets managed" so it feels like a positive thing.

I guess it depends on what you are measuring 🤔

There's hundreds of amateur performance analysts on this site who will study his reports - let's hope the fitness coach is on the way to remove niggley injuries from players over a season length and get a fit squad playing at 100% for 90 minutes every game !!

is he also a a scout?
looking at his youtube video's it seems like he is..

In the" good old days" you had a manager and a trainer and a football team-now you have a long list before you get down to a director of football, the manager,his assistant.a physio,a trainer a psychologist a fitness coach a young players mentor etc. Then you have the players [if you can afford any] together with their agents and financial advisors--no wonder we are having to have a 10% ticket increase next year but who cares as long as I can get my spoonful of Bovril for £2-20 and sit in my central heated stand in my comfy chair and watch a team deploy all the tactics and skill that they have been taught. Oh to have my career ahead of me again.

Hard to say if he is any good judging by the performance of his teams in the seasons he was there.

His last club in Qatar survived relegation by 6 points.
Before that Birmingham, survived relegation on goal difference.
Before that Dag & Red, survived relegation on goal difference.

Agree.Good move by the club.Makes it more professional

Would of been interesting to see where they would of been without him though

Here's a couple of freebies for you Asser,

our performance on creating goals / chances from long throw ins was fking terrible.

our performance defending free kicks around our penalty box was fking terrible.

Welcome aboard.

Hope this works out well for all.

In conventional job terms he's never been any where for long. But it is football

I wonder if they need a Health & Safety adviser as well ;)

He doesn't actually do anything does he apart from use software for measurements? Then it's down to someone else to decide what to do with them. In the past I've thought there has been something wrong with the way players are prepared for action at BP. Too many strains and sprains "in training" for one thing. Not sure how this chap is going to help with that or how he will fit in to the system. What he's doing sounds like a secretary being able to use Word and Excel.

Why does Slade need a Performance Analyst when he has the fishy??? 😂😂

What does a manager and assistant manager do nowadays-serious question-do they have discussions with the boss like on" Gordon Ramsey"

It's bloody obvious.

A manager manages and the assistant manager assists him !

When Buckley first came with Arthur Mann I think they did everything except wash the kit. ;D

It takes 2 to manage 20 odd players oh I forgot-there's the trainer, the physio. the strength coach.the fitness coach.the psycho coach , the goalkeeper coach etc.-  I get it -they pick the team  FFS

Welcome aboard.

Our performance in giving free kicks away around our penalty area was pretty impressive. ;)

It's been one of our great strengths for many years.  :-/

Local lad Greg Howard back at the club as Sports Scientist/ S&C coach.
Bright lad, just hope management & players buy into him.

I guess his role is to measure the contribution and fitness of individual players. Mind you, you do not need a computer to tell you Berret hardly makes a tackle, Summerfield runs about a lot but gives the ball away, Tombola is quick but the end result is often missing, Zak Mills can throw the ball a long way, Macca fails to come and catch crosses and parries shots to the opposition strikers, Davies can get beaten for speed, Vernon does not shoot much, McAllister is often injured. Anyone, wish to add to the analysis to help this chap with his measuring.

The Zak Mills one's debatable!
