On a second note: Regarding a few players, I did contact Tony on twitter and two of our scouts without getting any sort of response.
This thread is embarrassing. People who say "so we do have scouts do we".....Please just take 1 minute to think about the players we have signed this year. No big names, few pulled from foreign second divisions and our own lower leagues.
I think i will leave the scouting to the scouts.

As for the second point, just because the club have scouts, doesn't mean we shouldn't be able to suggest someone. As fans, we are there every game day with the manager and coaches, we see what they see on game day and very occassionally, we might find a player who could suit us. But we don't necessarily have the scouting range to be aware of certain talents until they are revealed to us. So I firmly believe the fans should be capable of having their say if only to aid the scouts."What stats allow you to do is not take things at face value.

I'm not even norwegian, but in the last year alone, Odegaard has come out of norway and Krasiqi (who is supposed to be rather talented) has just gotten his debut professionally at 14. Even before that, Riise, Hangeland and Morten Gamst Pedersen have shone for norway and their clubs and lets not forget Ole Gunner solskjaer. Even now, a rising tide of quality norwegian starters is developing in the form of Eikrem, Berisha, Daelhi, Both Elyounoussi brothers (esp Mohammed, who I think we should def look at if one of our wingers leaves) as well as Linnes, Stefan Johanssen and Henriksen. There are many more I've forgotten but I still believe scandinavia in general should be the place to go. Players are much cheaper and tend to have a good resale value in the long run because of EU links.

Would suggest this isnt the best place to be scouting.
