Anyway, he doesn't have coaching credentials, don't know why his opinion on a player should matter.

Player coaching & scouting is different though

Of course, but once you don't have the ability to coach, you don't work with the player in training, you have no control in the way his career at your club might go. Hence your opinion shouldn't matter. Good coaches are good scouts, but the reverse isn't always true. And in Emenalo's case, it really isn't. And it's not as if he is a talent scout either, he's the (next) opposition scout.

Yeah yeah true. But remember not all scouts are coaches too. So maybe he has a hidden talent for spotting good talent?

AFAIK though, he was just sent by someone at the club to watch. So I presume they've been tracking him for a while. I seem to remember he slipped up by talking to a journo there

I still think this guy might be a Guus scout.
