As for me saying your recruitment has appeared ‘shambolic and rudderless’ and that being rich for me to say as a WFC fan - I accept that. But I would say in our defence, we were being served up utter tripe by Mazzarri and QSF and don’t let the media outrage about those decisions cloud that. Jokanovic priced himself out of a new contract. Flores wanted to go back to Spain and Mazzarri lost the squad. Each time we moved decisively to get a new man in.
