Mike Phelan has explained his revised role under Manchester United caretaker manager Ralf Rangnick.
Phelan, who was Sir Alex Ferguson's assistant between 2008 and 2013, remained at Old Trafford following the sacking of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer in November.
Chris Armas, Ewan Sharp, and Sascha Lense were recently added to Rangnick's backroom staff, while Michael Carrick, Kieran McKenna and Martyn Pert have all departed since the German's arrival.
The United stalwart has reportedly been tasked with boosting morale in the dressing room and will put on fewer coaching sessions in the coming months.
"I don't coach as much now as I used to because there are a few different coaches," said Phelan.
"When I was coaching I did go over my sessions. Was I getting what I wanted? Or why didn't I get it?
"Sometimes you put a session on and it just flows. Wow. You don't have to step in too much. But you analyse that as to why it did flow well.
"Then there are areas where it could be better. You say, 'Where can I take that session? Do I add a bit, take a bit out?'
"I've had sessions where five or six things are going on - fitness, skill, finishing, technical - when really I only needed two. So you separate.
"Gone are the days when I get angry at certain things. I still do, but it's a little bit more calculated than it was before. I am more responsible now for analysing the game, giving a clearer view, than just lecture.
"I'm tired after watching a game. I feel as if I've played three games. I need a glass of wine and something to eat.
"But it is non-stop. As soon as you finish the game, it's hard to look back because you're onto the next one. So we've got to keep moving on."
