Hi Ed I know you have said in the past that the targets we go for aren't necessarily the managers choice with it being done more as a committee rather than one man's sole choice
Do you think there will be friction between tt and the hiarachy if our first choice players don't come because in fairness most of the players we are linked with are at the very top level .
I know you have mentioned in the past that touchel has fallen out with the board more than once.

{Ed002's Note - It is not a committee per se but there are a number of people who have an inut to the transfer process. This includes the coach.}

This is the positive and negative of being 1 of the biggest teams in the World - only the very best players will improve the squad and they are very hard to get - but the positive is that we ARE 1 of the biggest teams in the World.

Thanks for your swift reply .
I can see the press making a major issue of it if we don't get our targets and have a blip in form and can see that causing disharmony.

The club can only try its best.

If teams like Dortmund don’t want to sell their isn’t much we can do. The same applies if a player prefers to go to another club.

Totally agree but I remember conte and Jose both getting embroiled with issues that we didn't buy the players they wanted but as you say you can't Forse clubs players to come.
