DC was there when those players were bought, he didn't "discover" them. The hit and miss nature of those acquisitions say as much.You can’t say he was a fraud when he was involved in buying Modrić, Bale, Suarez, and Henderson for Spurs and Liverpool. Unfortunately he also bought Zokora, Bentley and Carroll.
Jol was a lovely guy, but let’s face it, nothing special as a coach.
Jol brought this club back, and began our revival. He made us a top 5 team, and was one lasagna away from getting us CL. That was his squad that won the League Cup. He was a fine coach, and we wouldn't be where we are without him. Comolli and Kelmsley stabbed him in the back.
