That’s all the knowledge I have with his career really. But didn’t he manage Michael Ricketts to be top scorer and sign Bobic, Jay Jay O’ and Djorkaeff, who all loved playing for him? Not sure how you can doubt his insight over yours but my view is no more valid than yours so no point arguing it anymore.

We are not arguing we are debating a point. As you rightly say your view is no more valid than mine but it is no less valid.
 

Interesting to note that this joke signing was the combined work of Walsh and Moshiri and had nothing to do with Allardyce.

And you know that how? Apparently Sam wanted him at Palace.

That said, I have no idea if that ^^^ is even true. Source. The internet.

The Mail claim :

Everton's majority shareholder Farhad Moshiri has been frustrated by a lack of return on the money he has invested in £239m of signings for Koeman and now Allardyce.

He is especially unhappy about the £27m spent on Turkish forward Cenk Tosun, although he knows that he and Walsh must share the blame for that.

Moshiri and Walsh personally scouted the player together in October when Tosun played at Monaco for Besiktas in the Champions League, well before the arrival of Allardyce, who is understood to feel the player does not work hard enough in training.

And there we have it. No one knows.

Just getting a mate in the media to do him a favour. He was an Allardye signing. Wanted him at Palace too.
 
The point is that he must have something to be on the bench. Both the manager and him have said it’ll take time. You’ll believe what you want so it doesn’t really matter.
It matters to me that we've just spent £27 million on a player who can't stand the pace and the weather in England.
But as long as he sits on the bench and never gets off it we'll never know whether he's an expensive mistake or not.
In Walsh we trust.

Tells you everything you need to know about Moshiri. He puts a really poor off-pitch team in place. Ignores the evidence for that and lays it all at the door of the manager.

Watches a player once, his little yes man knows no better than to agree, and they stump up £20-odd million for him.

And then when he hasn't scored despite not playing, he wonders why he hasn't got a return on his £200+ million.

The man is clueless as a football strategist. Hopefully all these are lessons he's learning and he gets it right this summer. But something tells me one day he'll disappear as quickly as he arrived. I just hope he doesn't leave us in a mess. And hopefully he sells us to a newly formed Global Chinese Sovereign Wealth Fund who plan to outdo Abu Dhabi and Qatar.
 

The real point is that we were desperate for a striker and a left back to supposedly avoid relegation. We didn’t get a left back, and spent £27M on a striker that can only be used once we are safe, so what was the point of buying him. In any industry this is a sackable offence. Allardyce has publicly stated that he has the last word, and the other charlatan Walsh said they work together, so we have a striker that we needed to keep us up but cannot be used until we are safe. On what planet does this make any sense...........

If Moshiri has started scouting players we're well and truly done for.
