Nothing wrong with the question. Poch most likely wanted Schneiderlin and Rodriguez and it wasn't possible to get them. Just like AVB wanted Moutinho and Willan but got Dembele and Dempsey instead . No doubt that both coaches agreed with the signings but what were their options? Either you can have these players or nothing at all?
So in that instance it's not really surprising the coaches gave their agreement.
We've been through this before Mullers, Willian went to Anzi, a club with a bottomless pit of cash that season for 34.5 million, we had never signed a player anywhere near that sort of money and 99.9% of clubs in world football hadn't either, Moutinho i will concede as he was the style of player we desperately needed and would have been a better fit for AvB than Dembele, but please, let's stop quoting Willian as feasable that season, he clearly wasn't.
