Ramiro: Cristao to Coach the Continentals




4 days till The Morristown 1776 AFC take the pitch for their first practice for the upcoming season and this time for the first in their history they will take it with a manager, as I first reported back in January, Claudio Cristao.

Cristao comes to the club after playing and coaching in Angola during his younger days. It seems he will bring many things to the club that it lacked last season among them discipline. The Continentals were at times disorganized last season lacking strategy ,cohesion and a game plan. When asked about this Cristao said, "I have no problem getting in a players face and calling him a jackass, that's just not something i'll take on this team." When pressed on the the English style game of playing back and sending long balls to the forwards that the club favored last season he said "Most likely we'll play more short passes, be more technical and bring it to the opponets first. In war the best defensive stragety is offensive."
