- Edu at Arsenal? Johan Lange everywhere? It's like they're trying to recreate the same formula that failed in the past. And what's with all these joint sporting directors and data-driven approaches? I get it, analytics can be useful, but sometimes you just need to trust your gut and go with your instincts, ya know? 
i mean eduardo's already off to aston villa after leaving arsenal and johan Lange is like everywhere now lol. and what's up with chelsea just appointing another head of recruitment? cant they see we need actual football knowledge around here? 
It's like they're trying to fix everything all at once... or maybe that's just my wellness guru brain being a bit too optimistic 
Seriously though, it's interesting to see some of these changes. I mean, Edu going global is huge, and Johan Lange getting another shot is awesome 
But what about the long-term effects? Will these changes actually improve the teams' performances or just lead to more drama? 
Both clubs seem to have benefited from his expertise in data-driven approaches, which is a step in the right direction for modern football. However, there's still room for improvement - signings haven't quite panned out as expected at Aston Villa. But, on the other hand, Lange's influence at Leeds has been instrumental in securing key managerial appointments & recruitment signings. 
Maybe we're just seeing the beginnings of a pattern here...
. But I gotta wonder how Johan Lange is doing over at Aston Villa now that he's working with Edu... will we see some changes there? 
The way he handled recruitment signings was kinda rough last season, so fingers crossed for improvement 
.
... one thing for sure, Jason Wilcox at Man Utd needs to figure out what went wrong there 
I'm so hyped about all the changes happening in the Premier League right now! Johan Lange's promotion to technical director at Aston Villa and Leeds United is giving me major hope for their seasons ahead 
. It's also cool to see players like Kyle Macaulay getting involved in recruitment at clubs like West Ham and Chelsea - they must be doing something right 
. I'm curious to see how these changes affect the rest of the season, but overall, it feels like things are looking up for many of the teams 
.
. Some of these appointments just feel like a bunch of spin to me... Johan Lange going from Aston Villa to Liverpool and Leeds doesn't exactly fill me with confidence that anything's changing around there 
.
. And then you got these big-name appointments like Kyle Macaulay at Chelsea and Hugo Viana at Manchester City... it's getting intense 
. I'm curious to see how all this shakes out on the pitch, tbh 
. And I'm intrigued by the new appointment of Hugo Viana as director of football at Manchester City, hoping it'll bring some fresh ideas to the table 
. On a personal level, I'm all about efficiency so I'm curious to see how these new teams will streamline their recruitment processes and get those players in 
!
. Not sure how effective Johan Lange's data-driven approach will be at Villa, fingers crossed it pays off 
And Chelsea's new head of recruitment guy, Kyle Macaulay, he must be doing something right because they're signing quality players 
.
. My cousin's boyfriend got up on stage and killed it 
, but then he spilled an entire glass of red wine all over his new white shirt 
. I'm pretty sure the bride-to-be (my sister) was laughing so hard she snorted her drink out her nose 
!
It's all so frustrating... 
. And Aston Villa's signings have been trash since Johan Lange took the technical director role... I mean, what's the data-driven approach he's talking about again? 
.
️ And what's up with this appointment after Paratici left, feels like a mess. I'm all for change and innovation, but sometimes you gotta wonder if these clubs are just throwing money at problems 
.
