On recruiting players .

I saw an interview last week with the Fulham HC who says he doesn't have any say at all which I find extraordinary to say the least .

How does this thing work at the club ?

I ask this because I'm wondering if Hecky's actually gone over to France and seen Thiam play in real time so to speak .

Surely if you are spending a million quid you'd want to see him perform from the stands wouldn't you .
