You wonder who at the club is actually making the decisions over possible targets.
Have we got a transfer committee any more? Tan would have to sanction the money but who is actually selecting the options?
If it's down to Bulut I bet he knows very little about likely UK based candidates given his history abroad and lack of knowledge over here.
I can't see him being railroaded into buying someone domestically he doesn't know so definitely look out for more imports.
Stuck record time.
We need a DoF or similar working with the board to steer the ship.
We're back to careering from crash to crash depending on which manager is at the wheel.
Ineffective, and very expensive when things go mammaries skyward.
No signs of MM's 'one for the future', more older player looking to get into British football and a manager surrounding himself with players he knows who may, or may not, be suitable for the championship.
I wonder who was the driving force behind the likes of Meite, Bowler, Grant et al? Not players he will have known.
I'm all for a couple of trusted advisors being drafted in. I did it when I was setting up project teams. But trying to build the whole structure in that way is folly.
If Jck gets his way and Erol is ousted, another re-build will be coming.
We've talked it to death, but we are in desperate need of some strategic direction. With Tan, Dalman, Choo and Bulut on the bridge, it isn't coming any time soon.
I hope one of them is looking out for icebergs.
