When Txiki will have miserably failed to achieve anything of note in three consecutive summer windows I may revise my judgement, although based on the "available evidence" he will still be commanding some credit, when compared with an absolute beginner.
Time for mediocrity has past at this Great Club, and the understanding of it does not equate to be arrogant rags... ;-)
There were a team of people involved in bringing players to City & the bit Marwood was involved in was when they came over to sign.
Those people were removed, along with Marwood's boss Cook BEFORE THE TRANSFER WINDOW.
I've posted the details of how the whole operation used to work on here, with a clear and concise explaination from the bloke who used to be in charge (he even mentioned how Patrick Vieira turning up at a scouting mission helped lose Hazard when Abramovic saw him on tv & texted them as they sat at the game). The guy explained how they went into every detail possible when scouting a player, brought him over, showed him round, had experts in every fucking thing a person could want, down to the smallest detail etc etc. They were the ones who did all that shit.
These people were allowed to leave prior to the transfer window . WHY ? Because the bosses had no fucking intention of spending huge fortunes on players; they already knew Soriano, Tricky etc were coming in. We had all read about Soriano coming in months before he arrived. As if he had no influence previous to that when we had a caretaker CEO. These same people have just dumped Mario & not replaced him. How many more clues do you need ffs ?
A few angry words from Mancini is all it takes to create months of ill informed bollocks.
If Marwood was here now, Bob would be nailling his hat on about not replacing Mario or bringing in a cb; he clearly said we needed to buy, not sell, but not a fucking peep against Txiki because now he knows who the boss is.
Marwood has overseen the biggest & best thing about this club; the re-creation & the creation of the academy. It will be the best thing about this club. He can be proud of it.
Hazard, RVP etc are a fart in the ocean compared to that & it will still be here long after Mancini (or Marwood) have gone.
