I think you are doing Coady a disservice if you think all he did was 'shout basic instructions'. He was more than that. He was a great character, loved by all within the Wolves' dressing room and a catalyst, linking the foreign players to the club.Firstly, Collins does seem very vocal.
But secondly, most teams don't have a Coady, and a lot of them manage fine! While he's a great character, footballers don't need to have basic instructions shouted at them all game, despite what Coady and the people who sit behind me seem to think.
All who know Conor (and I don't), describe him as an organiser, a team man, a consummate professional, and a great personality.
Above all of that, despite what some think, he can play football - you don't get to play for a Premier League club and the national side, without being able to do so.
In my opinion, we are missing someone with the leadership qualities of Coady in the dressing room. I'm not sure at the moment how we will replace what Coady brought and hope that we don't regret sending him out. Neves, for all of his skills, doesn't strike me as a natural leader.
