I think we are putting too much emphasis on the switch to Head Coach. I fully expect recruitment to be a collaborative approach, and rightly so. Scouts, data nerds, head coach, sporting director… they will all have a key role to play. The head coach won’t be able to sign just anyone he fancies, to do his mates a favour. And I very much doubt he will have players forced on him he does not want. They are all grown ups, and professionals, and collaboration will be key.
