When the trio did agree on targets, Kinnear failed to make the deals happen. "Lyon striker Bafetimbi Gomis, Lille's Florian Thauvin, Chelsea's Demba Ba, Norwich City's Anthony Pilkington, Blackpool's Thomas Ince and Wigan's James McCarthy were all targeted, but none signed."

wyn davies Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 Manchester United need someone to help them in the transfer market, according to former Tottenham and Liverpool director of football Damien Comolli. United manager David Moyes and chief executive Ed Woodward are new to their roles at the club and had a difficult summer in the transfer market. The club missed out on numerous targets before signing Everton's Marouane Fellaini for £27.5m on deadline day. "If there's a club who needs a director of football it's United," said Comolli. "It would ease the process for both individuals." http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/2396751 Sounds a bit like us, I vote for JK to ask for the job!

Guest firetotheworks Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 Tbh, I still didn't actually think that Kinnear had been given the responsibility of signing our players. I can't imagine that Kinnear would be given that job with player recruitment genuinely being the desired outcome, at least. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zero Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 It seems like he is the one who execute rather than finding the targets. So the failure could actually contributed to the struggles between pardew and Carr again. That said, he is the one who call off the Douglas deal.
