And this moment in time, we are in a good place.

So we have great access to fantastic data, but it's about using the right data, not all of them.
So we always compare the right data with watching the player on video or watch the player live and see if it scouts.
And finally the coaches, we are watching them and then
I think that's a big thing.
Then we take the decision together, the owner, the sports directors, and then the coaching staff, of course, me on top of that in terms of the final decision.
But that works very well.
And of course, again, it's been hours, hours, years that try to maximize it and find players that can fit in quite smoothly.
But that one thing is the data.
For me, it's also the people.
We need to have good people in.
That's a big thing we do in the reference report.
I think first and foremost, we need to think of the bigger picture of what is the safest for the society.
We know football is the most important of not important stuff in the world.
So can we play the games and it's safe?
I definitely think we should do that 100%.
If not, then we need to take the best sensible decision.
