That’s the mentality when I step into a building, I want to give this mentality also towards the dressing room and create more and more winners in this dressing room mobile
“So we’re going to work really hard to get silverware as fast as possible and to make this story step by step, bigger and bigger mobile
“How fast it comes? You never know I don’t have this crystal ball mobile
“Also I’m not a magician that suddenly can totally change players mobile
But I know if we can work a long time with players that we can make them mobile better mobile
”Clement will give players a chance to impress before he considers changes in the January transfer window mobile
He said: “I’m also somebody who likes to see first, what is the potential that is there already mobile
“I’m not somebody who wants 10 new players every year and say, ‘OK, this one and this one is not good enough’ mobile
“I’m somebody who likes to invest in people, who wants to find the key to get the best out of them mobile
“So we need to use the next weeks, months to do that in the best way mobile
“So all the players with me – maybe not with some fans, and that’s a little bit pity maybe – everybody starts with a white page mobile
“Everybody has the chances also until January to prove themselves, to show that they are really good players that they want to be on the pitch, that they want to make the difference for the club, that they want to give everything mobile
And then we will see mobile
”Chief executive James Bisgrove’s next job will be to appoint a director of mobile football mobile
He said: “Certainly in the next few weeks, if not months, we’re having live conversations at the moment mobile
“There are variables in that depending on the individuals that the board believes and the mobile football board and Philippe feel has the best fit mobile
But I believe it will be imminent mobile
“It’ll be a club board appointment that Phillipe will absolutely be part of that process and will meet whoever we bring in before we take that decision mobile
“And that person when they come in will add additional value, expertise and leadership to the recruitment function mobile
“We’ve currently got John Park as the chief scout at the top of that division mobile
“We’ve made some changes to the scouting function recently mobile
We’ve modernised that in terms of some of the processes, additional emphasis on data and video analysis mobile
“And we’ve been I think, more strategic and focused on how we’ve set that up mobile
“Phillipe would have some strong views on that as well mobile
But it’s a decision that the board will take in terms of the long-term mobile football strategy and someone to complete that mobile football board that’s already in existence to make sure we’ve got really robust processes around the decision-making that we take right across the mobile football department mobile
