Compared to the fraudsters and Tories lords that previously ran the club, it is being brilliantly run. The coach in their system is a replaceable part rather than being the fulcrum for the entire club.
Look up Jurado's stats. An attacking midfielder. No assists, no goals, 30 appearances.
Their game at Anfield was one of their best performances this calendar year.
Yeah, I was writing about Jurado being a dubious signing in the transfer window forum. But let's be honest, how much of it is Flores' mistake? Flores was a coach there, not a manager, and the club is ran like an Italian club. Which is fair enough, but that means that, most likely, the coach has a little say in the transfers and players. He works with what he has. Did he personally ask for Jurado? Who knows, I doubt it.
If you follow the likes of Udiniese and Granada, other clubs that belong to Pozzo family, their players keep interchanging year after year. Bunch of unknown players are brought in the hope of one or two of them making an impact so that they can be sold at a profit later on. Udinese at some point were one of the better teams in Italy playing in UEFA competitions, but Pozzo family sold their stars and they are now mediocre. None of the 3 coaches who work for Pozzo's (Udinese, Granada and Watford coaches) have much say in transfers. Therefore, it is unfair to blame Flores for the 10s of signings Watford did over the past one year.
