The way they recruited players wasn't by the traditional way we do things in England whereby the Manager comes in and solely picks the players to sign it was more of a group think whereby a sporting director and scouts or data analysts picked up players. They didn't rely on the manager they had a Head Coach who would have a say on stuff like this but ultimately they weren't dependent on the manager so that if they left the recruitment wouldn't suffer. They also made sure that they concentrated on the undervalued players and had success without paying silly wages. They also made sure that all the foreign players had an interpreter/ liason officer who would help them settle into the city. If Lemsagam wants to put a plan in place like this then I'm right behind it, and if he was to execute it even on a smaller scale he would be heralded as a freakin genius by all of us.

This is exactly what Pete Wild is required to do now, he's no input into signing any of the current players just gets them motivated to play. You could be right, a head coach may be what AL is looking for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tended to stick to the same game plan too often. Had a mean shot on him though according to the TV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bristolatic Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 Call me rude names, but I wouldn't be too averse to Ferguson out of that lot. He's as batty as a box of frogs, but his record ain't that bad. OK, shoot me now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
