I have become sceptical of the DOF role and think we need lean management, but if a new appointment means Walsh is moved out, then it’s worth it.
The relative waste of such a huge amount of money on transfers is something that Walsh has to take responsibility for and there has to be a structure in place to ensure that cannot be repeated.
Brands would bring the advantage of already working in the same role over Walsh who did not and seemingly was never able to adapt effectively and assertively. The Dutch model of concentrating on buying and developing young players and selling for profit is not only something that will become essential for us, it’s sonething we need to excel at.
Hopefully if he is coming here then it will be done soon and we can also get a manager in that Brands will be able to work with. But in the DOF role, it would be him that needs to be the senior appointment if it’s to work properly. Otherwise it just causes more problems than it solves.

My number 1 choice for the role is Ralf Rangnick - currently at Red Bull.
He has done exactly the job we want a sporting director to do.
Built arguably the best network of scouts in Europe (Mane and Keita for example), has turned Red Bull Salzburg youth team into the European Champions and taken the first team into Europa League quarter finalists. RB Leipzig into CL challengers, playing great football along the way.
He has put his trust in picking up the best young coaching minds around. He hired some unheard of bloggers who wrote about tactics, put them into his technical staff, got them their coaching badges and trusted them with the U18 side. They beat Benfica in the youth CL final and play technical/tactical football with great speed.
We are 7 weeks or so from the end of the season. These decisions should have been made 7 weeks ago, if not 7 seven months ago.
If Walsh is going (and he should) we certainly won't be moving on a manager until his replacement is insitu.
Clock is ticking. 6 weeks of exploratory talks and negotiations with PSV whilst those around and above us move on their targets in the background will effectively mean we write off next season too.
New DOF and a new manager both by mid-April please. Anything else is surrender.

There's not one deal completed by any other club bar the RS getting Keita. You seem to imply they may have done business in the background, if the media doesn't know about it with them, how do you know at haven't done the same?
