    International scouting.

    Do you think Mel should bring in someone to widen our scouting network identify and sign players and take all responsibility away from Rowett and his backroom who seem limited in player knowledge. I'm undecided on one hand I think manager should be in control of all as Ferguson on the other a manager can be a good coach but not necessarily a good manager.
    . Oh for the days of a stimac, Asanovic,Kinkladse or Wanchope. Why have we got to the point where we only sign uk players and the foreign players we do sign like weimann and vydra have been playing in uk for ages.

    Steve McClaren’s son Joe McClaren needs to be sacked for the abysmal signings he has got us so far.

    Maybe they do have a network of sorts and it just hasn't turned up any gems, for every Paulo Wanchope there's a Raul Albentosa

    What I was getting at more but Maybe a bit vague was getting someone who who has been in the game and speciality in scouting abroad. I don't understand why our transfers under rowett have required no scouting. Get what you says about Albentosa but before rowett as you know

    Raul Albentosa. Yet another decent player who came to Derby, failed to perform and then performed again after he left.......

    Did he not perform or was he just homesick?
