We seem never to look in our own back yard for new players - why?

Also our B team our under 18 do they not have potentially good players coming through - why not

I believe our recruiters who ever they are, are our weak link, ie we are only occasionally linked to players in the lower English divisions. If this Italian is a possibility, has you tube been the method of evaluating? Considering we might be paying him a 6 figure salary if he is on loan. This seems very poor business sense. Also the club want to sell him? Why

Our aim should be to get players who are already playing premiership football, like strand Larsen. He might be saying to his agent I don’t want to move to a club 3 places above Wolves. This has been our problem ever since we were promoted. The deal that brought Anderson was an eye opener but I think related more to Newcastle balancing their books.

What the recruiters need to understand is any one from a warmer climate is going to take time to settle, never mind accomodating to the premier league.
There is no doubt everyone on this site wants a striker. SD will saying this everyday. The worry is that he will not be given a say, yet will take the brunt of criticism from fans if the striker is pants.
Ndoye and MCatee people want the club to sell. On what criteria were they bought and are we being to short sighted moving them on early.
People blame SD because our only other striker was moved on, but I suspect he had no control and it was a financial decision from on high.

Carlo is right though skeggs edu only sorts things out with the agents, our head of recruitment identifies the players who is Portuguese and seeing as you know that you'll know his name ??.

At the end of the day. fans on here only see what suits them edu is in charge of overseeing all transfers in and out plus strategy and tactics fact a coach his a coach has I've been reminded lots of times his job his to coach the players given to him by you know who. dyche can't coach or put any tactics into the team has he as none fact and most of you wanted rid of nuno because of his boring football that got us into Europe.

So when we get hammered by a useless Portuguese team tmoz think of nuno smoking a big far cigar with a smile on his face because he was right about recruitment and edu which you are all moaning about now. and me collecting my free beer for a couple of weeks ? ?.
