It's a team though.....sometimes the manager just gives the final nod. pearson got a lot of kudos for the brilliant signings Leicester made but it was actually Steve Walsh who did the legwork......and he's now at?
Unless you know the intricacies of a scouting network it's difficult to say which element(s) make it successful.
But your post implied that Everton have a good scouting network, was it built up since Koeman was there or would you admit that Moyes has laid down the infrastructure over his long tenure there?
My point is that if a manager has built a good network at Everton then we can be confident that eventually the scouting network at SAFC will improve.
There is a monumental amount of short termism on here at the moment.
