Waghorn to Derby (2 Viewers)

It's not really that dumb though is it...

It's just my take...

To clarify there is a difference between recruitment (budget, financing, selling players on, etc) and scouting (finding and identifying talent), so fair enough when you allude to the former but in terms of scouting:

Clarke-Salter - Chelsea link (Adi)
Dabo (Adi)
Maatsen (was already in league 1 season before and Chelsea link again)
Godden (top goalscorer in league 1 season before)
Matty James (PL winner)
McFadz (season pro)
Moore (was first choice at Sheff Utd before their promotion)

I agree others like Rose were great find, my point is so much seems to be network through Adi and proven players and less from scouting team, most of which have been misses.

Agree though, they're done well to manage budget and work within constraints.

I was going to write something similar… agree on Adi that he’s had some contribution

Every club’s scouting is hit and miss; ours is the best it has been since relegation from the PL by quite a way.

Are you trying to say Edjenguele ,Brown and Malaga weren't any good ?

Yes, I genuinely believe his bout of covid put paid to his City career and perhaps even his career at this level. Shame really. You could never fault his effort so don't get the ridiculous vitriol on here.

Yeah, up until he got ill he looked decent. Was never the same.

Bit harsh on Edjenguele, he was ok, nowhere near as bad as the other two you mention.

Remember Denzel Slager!

Unfortunately. Perhaps a bit harsh on Edje

Reading MRs words yesterday I am sure there is interest from Derby the issue is how much do we pay of his wages vs them. Hope a pragmatic solution can be found.

Looks like he's moving away from football altogether
