Sir Ian McGeechan has backed Warren Gatland to deliver as the British & Irish Lions new coach with the Wales boss expected to be unveiled on Wednesday as the man to lead the tourists to New Zealand in 2017.Gatland, who coached the Lions to their 2-1 series win over Australia in 2013, was part of McGeechans backroom staff on the 2009 tour to South Africa. McGeechan, who played on two tours and coached on five, knows the Lions better than anyone and he feels Wales coach Gatland is the right choice.He will be named as the head coach on Wednesday and I think he is undoubtedly the right man for the job, McGeechan said in his column for the Telegraph. He is a New Zealander who understands New Zealand rugby, especially what it means to play against the Lions, but he has also been a part of British rugby for a long time now.He truly understands what the Lions means and has enormous respect for the concept. I remember when I was head coach in South Africa in 2009 and he was an assistant coach, and I asked him to speak to the team before one of the early provincial games. He said no. He said he had not earned the right to do that at that stage. It showed great respect.McGeechan feels Gatland has that understanding on of the Lions jersey and though their schedule has been criticised and deemed unrealistic for a series triumph for the visitors, McGeechan feels they can deliver.If he gets that in their hearts, their heads and their souls then the Lions have a great chance of doing well, McGeechan said. I really think they can prosper, despite New Zealand being so good at the moment.Gatland will have some tremendous players at his disposal. I actually think it could the strongest group of Lions for a good number of years, and if they can have a real clarity of thinking in their game plan they can challenge New Zealand.
