Recruitment

I’d like to question the suggestion that Ole has done a brilliant job of rebuilding the squad.

1. Time. Given time, any manager would make a number of changes. This is Oles 3rd summer.

2. Funds. Under Ole, the club has spent in excess of £400m. It would be difficult to spend that amount and NOT have improved the squad.

3. Responsibility. Whilst Ole undoubtedly has a say, and the option to decline any potential signing, there are many others involved in the recruitment process at the club.

4. Successes. How many of the signings made under Ole have been unquestionable successes? I make it 2, maybe 3. Admittedly it is too soon to judge 3 or 4 of the signings, but Telles, James, VDB, even AWB are looking poor additions.

Plenty of comments from posters praising the new setup, including Fletcher. RDD just likes to make something up and try to have discussion about it. It's weird

It's a bit sh*t the likes of Murtough undermining OGS by doing their job well.

How much of citehs and liverpool's club and squad improvement is down to their managers
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Exactly.

Its well known they have recruitment teams / committees like United and yet for some reason some of our fans put it all down to Ole.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

No they don't ffs
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Go look into it treacle.

City have been lauded for their set up, and Liverpool have a commitee, who convinced the club to sign Salah, over Klopps preferred choice. They also had to convince him on Robertson.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Utd fans haven't put it all down to ole

Stop talking bolx
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Many do. Go read recent threads and some of the comments on here.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I've seen most threads and I haven't seen it

Treacle
----------------------------------------------------------------------

We both know some fans have creditted Ole with the rebuilding of the squad.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

And fans have also acknowledged and praised how quickly these deals have been done this window
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Id disagree with that as well.

Snacho and Varane were protracted, drawn out affairs.

Ronaldo isn't yet complete and that was only tha ka to SAF stepping in.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
COVID is Ole's fault
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Indeed


----------------------------------------------------------------------

Its utterly pointless trying to have a discussion with him. If you can't see the difference in how we have operated in the window this summer compared to previous ones, and don't have the brain capacity to understand why deals took a bit to complete after the initial agreement was made, what's the point?
----------------------------------------------------------------------

This discussion is about who gets the credit for our tranfers.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
No sh!t Shirley.

But I was replying to your post where you said that the Varane and Sancho deals were protracted drawn out affairs.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Which i said in response to someone elses claim we had acted quickly this window. Surely you agree?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
We did act quickly in comparison to the previous summers. There was a period of time between us reaching agreements for Sancho and Varane, but that was down to euro 20, holidays, isolation and quarantine. Not because we acted slowly.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I disnt say why the yransfers were drawn out, but for various reasons, they were.

In the rush to have a dig at me, it appears nobody read what i wrote.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
No dig. Everyone but you can see that we have done things much better this summer. I mean, we got the Sancho deal agreed during the Euros. Which is something in itself. But we couldn't very well pull him out of the swqud to finalise it. Varane was agreed, but he had to quarantine and isolate before we could finalise it.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Again, you dont appear to have read what iv said.

Im not arguing we havent done better this Summer. Im juat questioning those that are giving only Ole the credit for the recruitment

I know what you're op says. But you have also said that you disagree that we've got our deals done quickly this summer. The club has acted quickly this summer, albeit the Sancho and Varane deals took time to complete due to circumstances outside of our control.

You yourself did a few weeks ago when you questioned which of Ole's signings had been a success. Even mocking another poster for suggesting VDB might have been a club signing. But hey ho, you've got another angle to attack Ole, so are happy to change tack
