I've (not) played under a coach who I didn't see eye to eye with and it's not nice. I'm not arguing with the committee theory but the bloke who picks the team must want to have the player or he won't get played or he will be played out of position so the coach can say "I told you so" to the committee.

The way it works at Barcelona & Ajax is that if the HC doesn't use correctly the players selected by the Committee then the HC is sacked.

The primary job of the HC is to get the best from the players selected & if he cannot do that then he is disposable.
