Yes but what I mean is when people say this is Ancelotti's first signing that no Brands signs players. They are all Brands signings.

....the first player to join after a new manager comes in is always a signpost. I think Moyes brought Yobo in. The DoF should be accountable for all signings, but I’d be very surprised if Ancelotti doesn’t have his say on particular players, and I’d be even more surprised/disappointed if Brands doesn’t listen.

Clearly Ancelotti won’t know this youngster.
 
Cos he was Irish til about 2 years ago and playing in the championship
Till that’s long enough to get picked, he didn’t even play in a senior friendly for ROI (which he still could have changed to england) He’s about the level DCL is at the moment a prospect but not much more. But time will tell, but it’s very unlikely like I said he would come here, more than likely he will be off to spurs next.

I'm not saying the manager shouldn't have some input but largely speaking the DOF and scouts should do the work of getting players in. Ancelotti's role should be very general on the front end in saying what is needed and that's really it.

....agree, but he’s so widely travelled and has managed such quality it would be folly to ignore if he specifies a player rather than a ‘type’ of player.

During the season he communicates to Brands what he needs. Summertime when he isn't managing the team every day he can look through some of the players that Brands and his team have done all the leg work on already and offer input. But 95% of it should be Brands.
 
ST - im sorry but DCL isn't good enough to start & Kean isnt ready.

CM
CB

Atleast one of those HAS to be a proper leader aswell.

Today we reverted to being sheepish - need a Big Dunc on the pitch to push us forward
