Perhaps we should let a new manager pick his own players.

This is how we make up the ground we've lost over the last 2 years.. bringing in a 22 year old midfielder who's started 10 of Celtic's last 11 games on the bench.
The manager has always had to take his pick from the players offered to him by the clubPerhaps we should let a new manager pick his own players.

Which is just one problem with the current set up.The manager has always had to take his pick from the players offered to him by the club
Disagree in the sense that if we had a good scouting network and director of football, that is the way you want your club to run. You have a footballing department that oversees transfers and they work in conjunction with a coach/manager to get him the tools he needs to be successful.
Lamela has been thieving wages for 7 years now - absolutely must GTFOHere's the list of all the players who have been in the 1st team squad this season.

It just so happens we have a poor network and Levy is essentially our DOF, so the system in our situation looks poor.
Arguably this is the worst list i have ever seen you would fail as a football manager my friend.Here's the list of all the players who have been in the 1st team squad this season.

The worst list you have ever seen? Ever? Ever?
If you do shop there you're probanly doing it for the wrong reasons, especially if your name is Daniel Levy and Steve Hitchins has sent you there.Given that most of Ligue 1 is currently facing bankruptcy, if you're not shopping there first, you're probably doing it wrong this summer.

Plenty of better players than El Burro, I have absolutely no idea what you see in him.There are some other questionable rankings here but the one the jumps out first is why is Doherty keep and Reguilon not sure?
How are we getting a better LB than Reguilon? Even if you ignore the massive other needs we have on this team there are so few better LB options than him I don't see how he can be not sure.
Alli, Davies, Dier, Hart, Bale as keep makes no sense either.
