If the owners and the manager are going in different directions that's not a great sign.
At the risk of going around in circles as its been covered so much, Moyes since leaving Everton has sunk two clubs due to spending fortunes on 'experienced' and subpar players more than finding quality.
The rumours last summer of the likes of McGinn, Tete, Ramsay, Soucek etc were quite frightening and of course we ended up with injury prone
Rohl and players he's signed off on but seemingly doesnt want to play or develop until they hit a certain age.
Gasperini is 68 and Moyes is 63 in April.
They're not going to be doing this forever and probably arent on the SAF/Wenger route of developing players for the good of the club.
If we get champions league then we'll need to splash out on top quality that perhaps we couldnt get otherwise. Just need to target players e.g u27 so we protect their value and can have them a few seasons.
If we dont get into that competition then the focus should be on younger players with 1 u27 player signed as a starter.
