Little bit of Danish for everyone this morning
Lange er en KUSSE!!!
Its so obvious its painful. The same robots making the same arguments I defence of him. We're here telling us to disbelieve the evidence of our own eyes last season, they never learn.He can't be the sporting director of a top 6 team. He hasn't relationships, doesn't know agents ecc.
Lange can scout young players, but then you should sign Paratici to be your sporting director and build the team.
In Sweden its a nickname for Cousin. I suspect it's not in Denmark
I think you have a legitimate point here, most youngsters take time to find their feet and its about spotting talent and nurtering it. There are exceptions who hit the ground running from the get go, and Tel isn't one of these.Nothing Kane did at 20 screamed elite talent.
Nothing Salah did at 20 screamed elite talent.
At 20, elite talent doesnt scream.
Now I’ll repeat my original assertion:
The evidence so far isn’t sufficient to draw strong conclusions.
Making sense now?
Whoever has the role has to work with Levy so even if Lange was good he would be handicapped. We used to pay youngsters less than other clubs because we only wanted youngsters who really wanted to play for us and you wonder why we haven't had a youngster breakthrough in a generation.Lange is Hitchen levels of cow dung.
Robbing a living since 2023.

Fairly obvious at this point that he's only still in a job because he allows Levy to appear positively charismatic by comparison...Lange is Hitchen levels of cow dung.

I thought it’s the club and his bosses that has the vision? His job is to implement it.

He's the head of recruitment....As full blown DOF he's very much expected to help shape the footballing end of that vision.
If in truth he's more just a exec./head scout then yeah can't blame him for the broader vision.
Levy is head of recruitment. He is the one who says yes or no. He has employed minions in key positions to hide behind.He's the head of recruitment....
He's not just a scout. Another sensible take from yourself.
