SUPERTOON Posted October 13, 2021 Share Posted October 13, 2021 Have zero knowledge of Marwood, if he was appointed do people think that would be alongside a sporting director? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gives me shivers down the spine hearing that phrase again. I imagine we'd not be in a place where we'd have to sell if we didn't want to. But if we did there would be talent planned/in the wings instead of Charnley's frantic Gumtree search for a secondhand striker on deadline day. Just getting to a point where we could reliably scout talent will be a task for anyone coming in. Nevermind getting the staff and facilities to actually develop and improve them afterwards.

WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted October 13, 2021 Share Posted October 13, 2021 Nowt wrong with selling for profit if you’re shrewd and know when to do it, for example shifting players who on their day are excellent and attract attention but also struggle to stay fit.

I think so, seems more like a CEO type. He's in charge of all of City Football Group, so not just Man City, which seems telling. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ferguson was great at re-inventing the team by moving on players on the decline and bringing in new blood. Kept everyone hungary (insert Bruce joke here).

toon25 Posted October 13, 2021 Share Posted October 13, 2021 I'm forever reminded how far we've been left to ruin by Ashley as a result of these discussions.

toontownman Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 Interesting. Not sure he is the calibre of the other 3 linked but traditionally the best club for developing players. Wonder if we are looking at more than just one DoF role and a team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 I’d take anyone, tbh. Any one of the three would immediately be a massive step up from the way we were operating a month ago. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
