Should full control be aloud at every club anyway for managers? Fergie and Wenger yes because they have been at their clubs for a long time and despite the odd flop have proved themself's in the market. Jose got full control when he first came here, it was only after signing numerous flops in near enough one go the board and Roman intervened and took full power away from him. Plus if you were an owner and just brought a club with Kenny Dalglish or Rafa Benitez in charge, with their track record's would you happily say here you are Rafa/Kenny here is £150m bring in who you like? I don't buy this manager's should get total control over transfers, maybe when they have been at the club a while and proved they are good yes but if AVB had full control i highly doubt Lukaku, Courtios, Cahill and De Bruyne will be on our books right now.
