The reason I said something must change is because of what happened in January.
Sabri specificaly asked for one player and he got a completely different one. This is all being discussed now between Sabri and the owners, there will be nothing left off the table. If Sabri blames the recruitment which he may well do then I can't see how we can just carry on with the same set up. That's just my opinion, like I said EM might see it differently.
Is that regarding Freeman in January? If so I could understand bashing the recruitment if we'd missed out and Freeman went elsewhere but he didn't, he wanted to stay at Sheff Utd and they didn't want to let him leave. There isn't much anybody could do about that.
But the crime was not moving on to a similar alternative target. If it's Freeman Sabri wanted we didnt sign anyone else. We also went from Gayle to Walker and Grosicki to Diakhaby. We wanted Colback and missed out and dont seek an alternative. It was pathetic.
I agree January wasn't good enough anyone can see that but it is a hard market to work in and that's why I said it should be treated as a learning curve, they should know now how difficult January can be. If they carry on making it hard for themselves then serious questions will need to be asked, I just don't think we're there yet.
