Gribz 743 Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Yip agree with Juff the scouting network is awful, and the development side hasnt been great overall either. Ok recently a few promising players have came through like Hutton, Fleck (yet to prove himself after 3 years), K Hutton, Wilson (6 months honeymoon period) and Ness but how long has murray park been on the go? I dont even think we have to go to South America to land such quality, only a handful of clubs have in the UK have done well with South Americans as they prefer Spain etc. But to not even start looking at the likes of Ukraine, Romania, Bulgaria, Czech along with Scandanvian countries is terrible. Id say SOME of the top teams in those countries are technically better than us in general yet Im sure a few of them would fancy a move. But to an extent the management role should have more of a say on scouting, Im sure Arsene Wenger is 100% in control of this at Arsenal so I wouldnt fully blame Murray on this topic unless he refused to employ the scouts in the first place. But Im sure ex Pro's of the clubs would easily watch a few games in their own countries for no fee if it was to recommend a player. A huge crime of Murrays was selling off the ticket office then the Albion Car park. To move the ticket office into a portacabin for a team that plays Champions league football with 50000 was embarrassing. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
