Which team has the best Sporting Director

Discuss

Santos

I think Rui Costa is doing a superb job with Benfica....minus Capdevilla I guess.

Juventus

Probably Ajax's, IMO.

Isnt the Madrid Sporting Director Fernando Hierro? Or is he doing something else?

I'm a fan of Walter Sabatini's ability to find talent everywhere and anywhere. Additionally, Inter have one of the best deal makers in Branca. In a general sense I liked Valdano's class as well.

I think Olympique Lyon hands down

Wenger pretty much does this role, and no one can match the talent he finds, and the talent he sells.

are we talking sporting director or scoutes here coz some of you guys are mixing both roles.

Why on earth doesnt he have a role at Madrid? Did he ever have a role there?

You would think someone of his standing, they would want him.

No one can close a deal like Marco Branca,not much of a visionary though.

Walter Sabatini has been the magic man in Rome this season, pulling off some great buys. Lamela, Jose Angel and Steklenburg are possibly his best buys of the season thus far.

Giuseppe Marotta for me not that I'm Juve fan but wihout UCL and EU Cup he signed

Vucinic for 15 mil or 3 rates , Vidal on 2 rates for 9.5 mil , licht,Pirlo,Barzagli 300k , Elija,Esti,

I asked the two Madrid king pins( or 2 of them) Nick and Zeal as i have no clue

Nick's response: Mainly because most of the top execs position are occupied, no one replaced Valdano as Sporting director, his position disappeared, and his responsibilities were split between Mou, Zidane, Pardeza and Sanchez i think.

Also, some would say that he is in the Del Bosque boat, and does not fancy floflo much, plus working with Mou who didnt make a lot of friends in his first year, and probably upset a lot of purists.

Zeal's response: There were rumours that Hierro was approached by the club to take up a position but Malaga offered him a role he could be more active in. Also it's very important to keep in mind that Malaga is HierGOD's home town

signed diego alves, rami, topal, jonas, piatti, mathieu and tino costa for a grand total of 28 million
