The problem (in my opinion) that has developed since Moshiri has arrived has been the approach in trying to close the gap to the top 6. He has clearly provided the finances for us to be achieving 7th as a minimum each season, but the way we have gone about it has been all wrong.
Moshiri went out and put his faith in Koeman and Walsh and those appointments turned out to not just be poor decisions but terrible ones. Except for a few good additions, and in Gana's case, an excellent addition for the money we paid for him (£7m), we have overspent by millions bringing in the wrong type of player.
I think when Moyes was here he brought in a type of player that could work hard for the team, get the best out of their ability and could fit in to the system that Moyes wanted to play. Take Marcus Bent in 04-05 as an example. A limited player who came in, worked hard and got the most out of his own ability and was willing to play the role the Manager wanted from him for a good 4 or 5 months before Beattie was brought in. Bent played a big part in us ending up 4th that season.
With most of our signings since Moshiri has come in, we've signed individuals and most of them don't have the right kind of attitude.
