If he can consistently find that level of player before the competition does, then he'll be great.
No idea if he can. Fingers crossed.

Sherwood and Les blew the Suarez deal

rudd says of the two:
‘They asked me all kinds of questions about Suarez, so I just point blank said: “You have to snap him up, without any hesitation, in a heartbeat.”
click bait that isn't it? Could quite easily just be them keeping their cards to their chest - don't want to tell everyone you are desperate for a player do you.
Harry Says:
“Despite all that has happened in his career since, one of the biggest regrets of my life in management is not taking Luis Suarez to Tottenham when we had the chance. ‘You’ve got to take him, Harry,’ Ruud Gullit told me. ‘He’s fantastic’.
If he was involved in the final recommendation on Suarez he needs shooting
Redknapp said:
I really don't fucking care about the Suarez stuff. I'm absolutely happy that he never touched this club.
Agreed. But we're not talking about Suarez, we're talking about a group of professionals who somehow told Redknapp that Suarez would never be able to play as a striker.... Frighteningly incompetent!
Suarez is a racist.

The transfer hunters: how Premier League scouting set-ups compare
Tottenham Hotspur
Steve Hitchen, the chief scout, worked at the club between 2005 and 2010 as the scout in France. He quickly became the main overseas scout and he returned in February this year, at around the time Paul Mitchell, the former head of recruitment and analysis, was leaving. Tottenham have said that Hitchen is not a like-for-like replacement and he fits into a slightly different structure, in which he makes his player recommendations to the three-man football committee of the chairman, Daniel Levy, the manager, Mauricio Pochettino, and the academy manager, John McDermott. Hitchen went from Tottenham to Liverpool, where Damien Comolli, the director of football, said he was the “main reason” why the club signed Luis Suárez. Hitchen worked at Queens Park Rangers and Derby County before coming back to Tottenham. DH

Could be. Likely a much easier place to work, as he can't become a third wheel between Ralf Ragnick and a can of Red Bull.
I heard on a podcast this week that RB tried to sign Lookman from Charlton, so don’t think it’s a Mitchell one.
Man Utd apparently "are readying an approach for RB Leipzig’s Paul Mitchell"

I think that rules Poch out
Probably more about sticking with Ole, but removing his power in the windows
