When a new manager comes in

When a new manager comes in to a team, I know he usually brings his own backroom staff, but do the scouts also change?

Not usually..

it did with us.

 

Rafa bought in his own head scout - Paco Herrera then Eduardo Macia, and they also set up scouting networks elswhere so I guess he had a hand in picking those as well.

 

Some of the other scouts stayed as well I'm sure,cos Herrera and Macia work alongside a scout that was here before.

There was a story (in Ballague's book I think) about how Rafa sent all the scouts to a game and asked them to do a report, the ones whose reports were similar to what he saw were kept on the others were let go.
