Whoever is brought in has little influence and simply coach and pick the team.

This continental style instantly rules out loads of potential managers who want insist on more control.

It doesn’t surprise me that they’d want to choose a foreign yes man, who is told what players he can have and his job is to simply coach them and employ tactics. Their Chairman is power mad and it’ll probably all end in tiers.
Very true. Doyen decide who the pigs sign. And long may that continue.
