Of course, Eisner is no MM and certainly Danny Cowley is no Rednapp !
Eisner wouldn’t recognise a football genius if he ever saw one (and wouldn’t find the cash to pay him to pull on the Pompey shirt if he did) and RP would never fit into DC’s vision of football- whatever it is.
Pompey only aspire to mundane at best, always assuming we can reach such heights.
Eisner is certainly not a Mandaric. Thank god. Owners that interfere with who the manager signs are not a good thing, as Mandaric proved with Yoshi. Prosinecki was a bit different because he was a personal friend of Mandaric , not someone he scouted and thought would be be useful to sign irrespective of whether the manager wanted him . Which of course Rix (not Rednapp ) did, unlike when he signed Yoshi and upset the dressing room so much they staged an on the field protest and let the opposition score when Mandaric insisted on him being picked.
Another difference between the two is that when Eisner promises to spend 10m on the ground he does, whereas Manadaric produced an early fake news news story by sitting in a digger but doing nothing other than lie about his intentions to keep the fans happy.
