Not for me. A chief scout should help to identify players, in conjunction with the manager, but the decision to buy (if money is there) should be the manager's.Thought it was agreed in summer that it was best for someone like Sven to identify the players over a manager, and then it’s up to them to work with the squad.
It isn't the scout who works with the players and is in charge of the team on match days so the manager, who bears the public responsibility for failure, should have the final say on who he wants in the team.
