Eds, what's your views on Michael Edwards? DoF who hasn't landed any primary targets, and can't sell surplus players, i. e Sakho, Salah.

{Ed001's Note - impossible to say really. What kind of discretionary power does he have at his disposal? Are the sale prices set by him or given to him and he has to find someone to take the players at that price? Does he have the power to scrape up the money or approve the add ons required to complete a deal for an incoming player? For instance, in Keita's case, has he been told this is how much you can offer and that's it? Or does he get told this is the overall budget, you have to allocate it as you see fit? Or perhaps even is he given the power to decide exactly what terms and package is offered with no oversight from the club?

I have a feeling he does not have much in the way of discretionary power, or we would, at the very least, have offloaded a few to clear the wages.}

Ed001 who do you think is calling the shots on this one then? Would this come under Peter Moores remit?

{Ed001's Note - I don't know mate. No one wants to talk about this stuff as it is above the pay grade of the people I know.}

I think Edwards should be given until the end of the transfer window before any speculation on his performance. We might still get VVD and Keita and sell Sakho and Markovich.

Mr Mike "Net Present Value" Gordon will be setting the parameters of the deals.

Really interesting first comment Eds and spot on. Everything you mentioned regarding who has the power I always thought was the owners remit. From what I've read on here from either yourself or ed 02 suggests the owners have nothing to do with tranfers or budgets. I think we all know we have a major flaw at the club when it comes to doing any kind of transfer be it in or out. There's 10 days to go in the window so who knows what is going to happen. Keep up the great work.
