What exactly does the recruitment team do and who's in it? Or is the recruitment team just 2 weeks guys on a laptop?

Maybe doing what we all do and watch players on YouTube, all joking aside, maybe our head of recruitment is just working through the list his dad left behind. 🫣🤦🏼♂️

Play solitaire whilst the 12 players we have signed magically appear.

Tbh, recruitment and money men are doing their job well. McInnes starting a 442 (effectively) didn't work. He's got to adjust his style from being the team who imposes themselves on the other team.
All on McInnes this one, but I just hope he learns quickly.

We've signed 12 players 👀. Still waiting to see 1 decent player amongst them. Must've been all from amateur teams, then again, amateur players have more fight than this lot.
The quicker the transfer window closes and we know what McInnes has to work with, the better.
How many times do we play players that are surplus to requirements and only look after themselves and don't give a hoot about the club that pay their big salaries.

I want to know what role McInnes is playing in recruitment. He almost seems to wash his hands of it and others get the blame, but what kind of top manager would accept players being signed that don't fit with what he wants to do and will ultimately get him the sack.
Has he just been brought in as a yes man and forced to accept whatever is thrown at him. I always think back to Gio, who got a lot of new players after the Euro final, but I felt most were Wilson signings, not his, but he was the one who ended up sacked.

Wls, we are still living with the consequences of not backing Gio and sacking him.

So Sco, u don't rate Makhanya, Penrice, Drago, Yakota?? The rb is meant to be a good one too.
Only ones I think have been poor is Mccrorie and Shanks.
We all know Shanks isn't a bad striker though.
We know Devlin is good at what he does.
Neil has been poor, tbf, actually forgot about him.

Easily forgettable Stevie on performance so far. Consensus by a few on here is that he wants out, another enquiry today apparently.

Fork, I think it's the best outcome. He's not settled and I don't think he's going to.
I thought he'd have been a good signing, but I'd much rather have Barron than Neil. It wouldn't even be a 2nd thought.
