Our transfer dealings at least in the past has been agent based rather than scouted which is why it has been so random at times. Im hoping Gary Brazil will start to change that which will in turn reduce the number of ageing players.
Last summer we moved from focusing on younger players form Spain Portugal and France to mainly recruiting experienced Championship players. That is not having a strategy, nothing to do with a style of play or identity. It was a random acquisition aimed at reactively filling gaps in the squad and again was mostly agent dealings.
We need to start planning ahead, what we want the squad to look like in 3 years time. Not a desperate shit or bust push for promotion in 1 season that we keep repeating. I still think having a director of football would help in this regard and would support Brazil and Modesto in their work. We are I accept making progress and optimistic from reports of some real prospects that have been joining the U23s.
