Rashford through the middle - has that ever really worked? Harnessing Rashford and Watkins (or Malen)  looked good when we actually tried it.
He scored all his goals for us from the CF role when played there.

Indeed fair play.

But, and not wishing to be overly myopic, but isn’t this a bit of a key time for the Sporting Director role? And assuming it is, do we have someone/a process to fill that gap.

I'm sure everything is in hand, and no dereliction of duties.

If this is true, he is employed by Villa, oh fair play to him? He has a job to do here at the most important time of his job. I wish I could step away from my job to do something else for a bit.
Although, perhaps he and the club know we are not going to do much this window so he can stay in Spain

Apparently, it's at the end of the window...nothing official.

Are you never allowed leave then? 

It is also a weekend or do we expect them to be working 24/7 365 days a year?

It doesn't, but Monchi seems confident he can help save San Fernando CD.

So long as the owners and Unai are ok with whats happening then its fine.  I cant think any of them would tolerate anything having a significant impact on his Villa role
