How come the head of recruitment is not responsible for the incoming players this summer that are not compatible with championship football. Did anyone do an eye on scouting of these players or was it all on the data.

Covered in the Nourry thread really but Andy Belkin will provide a list of names. I would guess that actually seeing the potential transfer target play is down the list after data and match videos. |  | | |

Because recruitment reports into the DOF, who is Nourry, who has final sign off on players in and out so the buck stops with the DOF. And more importantly the DOF sets the transfer strategy;
- player markets to focus on i.e. european leagues
- what age to buy e.g. u24
- whether different aged players are required for squad balance or not e.g. 18, 24, 29, 31
- whether players need championship experience or not
- judgement calls on wether players will settle or not, whether they have the right personality or not
- and many more
The DOF is also responsible for setting/agreeing wages, length of contracts, and transfer fees.
And none of these categories look rosy right now. In fact, our transfer strategy looks like it was put together by someone who doesn’t understand the championship. | | | |

'whether players need championship experience or not'
We couldn't afford to sign too many players with Championship experience. The bigger question is will that player be comfortable with the physicallity of The Championship, something that the super computer cannot tell us. However I would be disasppointed if our recruitment team didn't study and have a good idea how the foreign leagues we are recruiting from compare to The Championship. | | | |
