‘The right fit’ - Dejphon Chansiri’s words on Sheffield Wednesday’s new manager Danny Röhl
and live on Freeview channel 276
The Owls unveiled the 34-year-old on Friday afternoon after The Star revealed on Thursday night that the club had got their man, and now he’s able to get to work at his new club.
Speaking at his opening press conference, Chansiri spoke of why he decided that the German was the correct decision to take over from Xisco.

“He has knowledge from working with big managers before – he was like a brain for them. He has done all the things apart from the final decision, that’s it. Everything else he has done, so I think he is the right fit for us.”
Röhl’s first game will see him face Watford next Saturday.
