Steve Walsh - no longer our Director of Football

[KaiserEFC]

Doesn’t seem like somebody imminently about to lose their job.

He won’t lose it mate, he’s part of the family now and set for life. Jobs for the (incredibly incompetent) boys

 

[joger]

It's his job so he's gonna continue to perform his duties until he's sacked

 

[Toffeemeister]

He might just end up as a senior scout rather than having much real influence.

Not good enough. He needs to be made an example of. What he’s done over the last two years is not acceptable.

It wasn't that long ago I was dreaming of us spending £10 million on a player.

To think we would spend £250 million inside 2 years and have a worse team makes me want to weep!

That's it! £10m was fantasy football just a few years ago. Can't believe it

Can someone please forward this to Farhad so he has an idea of how this fraud is failing.

...thread after thread on Allardyce, yet this one slips pages down.

Walsh explained the transfer process; he and Koeman identify players but both have to agree and sign-off any incomings. Both had the power of veto and whoever most wants a player does the groundwork to secure him.

On the face of it, that sounds ok but I think the reality explains the squad inbalance. I suspect both men pursued their own agenda, there wasn’t a joined-up, integrated approach. It meant players were brought in with separate strategy in mind. The safety net should’ve been the power of veto but it appears neither had the balls to halt the others signings. The result is a mess.

Ego gets in the way of the good of the club.

 

[ToffeeTim]

Cannot actually believe he's still employed

Yep and while he is it just leaves the doubt in my mind that Moshiri and co are a gang of clueless donkeys

 

[hktoffee]

Still here what the hack.

 

[rochdaleblue]

Bar Moshiri and emery at Sevilla are there any successful DOF/Manager partnerships? We could be looking at the same scenario in 3 months time Brands/Foncesca. Fair to say Koeman/Walsh has to be up there with the worst partnerships ever.

..others are more knowledgable than me, but I think lots of clubs take the bulk of transfer responsibility away from Managers these days. I think I read a quote from Klopp saying he though Salah was a bit light framed for this league.
