I guess that article makes a fair, yet lacking (transfer fees are useless without contract details), assessment of what little we know of Emenalo's work but it misses broader picture with its introductory point. The most important thing to understand about Emenalo's role is that he does not hold a position in the Football Board. While this may be a great situation in contrast to Arnesen's role and the fact that the Technical Director does not overlap the manager, having different person assembling the squad and different assessing it is hardly normal.
