I think it's a curious signing, though I welcome any new blood with open arms, it does beg a whole lot of questions, primarily who is behind the decision, we all know that JM was always the plan, was he consulted months ago (January), did Bielsa turn his nose up and that scuppered the signing, is it Orta's signing, was he going to force it through regardless of who was in charge. Does this indicate that Marsch has little say on who we bring in. MB and JM are very different managers with different footballing philosophies, why are we targeting the same player?

Club knew MB was leaving in the summer. And they knew Marsch was taking over. They also knew they
were going to shift to Marsch's system. And Aaaronson
played for Marsch in that system. So, yes they knew
in January why they were trying to buy BA.

Not sure everyone knows this but Marsch himself in an
interview said he first spoke to Orta two years ago about
the LUFC manager spot. That's down to MB only signing
one year contracts and that uncertainty over whether
he'd stay.
