By saying you were putting too much stock into relationships with agents I wasn't suggesting Rudkin and his recruitment isn't agent-lead. We all know it is. I was saying its not necessity, that keeping agents sweet isn't something we should be worried about to be successful.

Tough one that, Robertson not in the keeper's line of sight but he's ducking under the ball in the 6 yard box, surely Donarumma will be taking his body into account -

He didn't go down late – the keeper's knee knocked his leg leg completely off stride and he just stumbled over normally -

I think its a pen. The knock takes his stride away -
I think you're putting too much stock in the agent relationship point as being a thing that's vastly different than it was a decade ago. And exactly? You've just said that the wages and fees for the time were high. It was borderline the same problem. I think we'll go on and on here but I don't disagree that Rudkin and Top are tossers, I just don't think bombing out shite players is the impossible task we make it, and I don't think freezing out jokers like Faes or Soumare would be a net negative for the club.

But this is a different point entirely

Your initial point was about relationships with players and agents, the landscape of which hasn't particularly changed int he past decade. I also think given the cost of that collective group in 11-13 Pearson would've faced some resistance in leaving them out in the cold. It was a while ago and PSR has been introduced in the meantime but but it doesn't mean it was a luxury we could afford back then. The players he wanted out cost the club a lot of cash.

Hmm, not so sure its as black and white as this tbh. Pearson's success in his second stint (and his first I guess to an extent) was pretty much built on freezing out players he didn't rate and making ti as uncomfortable as possible for them. He put the club's record (or second highest) signing in the reserves in 11/12. Start of 12/13, Beckford and Danns got piecemeal minutes – if they were even in matchday squads – before leaving. These were players that cost the club a good whack, in transfer fees, wages, or both. It can be done, but the manager has to have some semblence of backbone with both the squad and those at the top. Cifuentes comes across as far too malleable to me.

That's probably his point -
Are you a veteran of the franchise who has backed "Miles and Co" for decades?
