New York City FC Head Coach Ronny Deila has hailed the work of his assistant Rob Vartughian as his side prepare for the trip to face the Philadelphia Union.
Vartughian has taken the lead on devising set pieces for the Boys in Blue, and when Deila was asked whether his team’s success against FC Cincinnati was good fortune or the consequence of hard work on the training pitch, he pointed to his assistant’s diligent work.
“We are spending a lot of time on it,” Deila said. “We have Rob, who does the set plays. He has a lot of experience.
