If he doesn't believe in other methods - rightly or wrongly - then he is just as flawed as us all. Stubborness can be the downfall of quite a lot of men but it shouldn't detract from their desire to actually want the best end result.
He seems quite stubborn and principled. Again, look at Dein's comments about him not wanting to sign a player in a position where he already has an up and coming player whose development he doesn't want to stifle. It's admirable in a way but given how here today, gone tomorrow modern players are it's probably not the most pragmatic approach.
