Players can have all of those things and still be the wrong fit for a team, which is my point about Bowen.

he signed 74 players during his time. Martyn, Jags, Lescott, Distin, Coleman, Arteta, Pienaar, Yakubu, Fellaini, Cahill, Donovan (1st time) where excellent
Howard, Saha, Mirallas were decent
The other 60 were either crap or flash in the pans. So 14 players over 10 years equates to 1.4 decent signing a year
Myth, proven

Martyn, Howard, Coleman, Jagielka, Baines Lescott, Distin, Arteta, Pienaar, Fellaini, Cahill, Donovan, Yakubu, AJ all good signings
Not his fault he barely had a pot to pee in thanks to Kenwright - you can argue a lot of the dud signings were unlikely to be good signings based on the cheap ass market we were shopping in.
If Moyes never signed bargains we would have been relegated no question in my mind.
so it’s kenwrights fault now that he bought crap, even though he bought bargains with the money he had

Well when you shop in the market for £50 million players you'll likely find more better players than shopping in the market for £5 million players.
But thats just logic which some fail to have when arguing an agenda.
Bilyetdinov aside Moyes barely wasted anywhere near the sort of money Walsh & Brands have.

Whats amazing is the local media haven't once pulled him up like they did Walsh.
Its like he is untouchable despite his signings largely being poor. Look at some of exciting players in England over the years we could have signed - Grealish, Zaha, Eze, Bowen some good players there but he goes for 6 stone lightweights like Bernard on 120k+ a week or players basically seen as not good enough by the clubs slightly above us like Iwobi.
Its just baffling how he is still in a job - surely Moshiri has to be looking at talks with other well known DOF's to try get them in next summer and part ways with this fella.

COVID really must be throwing a wrench in his January plans. I'm not sure the slopes are open for him to take his winter month long holiday.

Moyes was largely excellent in the transfer market given our meagre resources. Trying to re-write it as something different is embarrassing.so it’s kenwrights fault now that he bought crap, even though he bought bargains with the money he had

What happened to Olsen?
Is he yet another Brands dud?
Is he yet another Brands dud?
How can a backup keeper on loan that’s played once (and well) be a dud? You’re relentlessly boring.
What’s rewriting history about what I said: 10 years in charge, signed 14 really good players out 74. That’s facts
Not exactly DoF material which is what is being argued
