I'm not convinced. Once a dof or sd starts interfering in football team matters you might as we kiss goodbye to any harmony.
It depends. I want the manager focusing on getting the players organised and ready for matchday. Not all managers have the time or ability to manage the scouting network, identify targets and negotiate contracts.
100% the manager should be involved in the identify targets discussion. However, the medium to long term planning of the squad could be better managed by someone who can do the investigative work full time.
Losing the likes of Nathan Thompson, Christian Burgess and Matt Clarke; then replacing them with absolute numpty's shows there is room for improvement in this process.
