Certainly got Deeney and Ighalo scoring for a while whilst also setting up quite well defensively. Typically went wrong after Christmas but then that seems to be the trend no matter who we have. We have Stoke at the end of the month so that's 3 point for them if they appoint Flores. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes just looking at the season he was at watford you finished 13th with 50 points. Looking at southampton last season they finished 8th with 46 so it's interesting different seasons where sides could finish. I just found it surprising at the time when he left watford. His track record looked quite impressive especially in spain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super_horns Posted 11 January 2018 Share Posted 11 January 2018 We just fell away at the end - probably due to the cup run I guess playing on the minds of the team. He was quoted as saying his relationship with the Pozzos had broken down quite a while before the season end. The football did get a bit dour and had some real favourites but which manager doesn't I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wymsey Posted 12 January 2018 Share Posted 12 January 2018 (edited) So apparently Arsenal want £30-£35m for Sanchez, but now his agent also wants £5m for himself on top of that.. Just shows the state of the game with them being unregulated etc and ruining the game somewhat. Edited 12 January 2018 by Wymeswold fox 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Call me old fashioned, but I think the player should pay his agent, although even if that was the case they’d find a work around so the club still ended up paying. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They offer not one single decent, honourable or positive contribution to the world of football. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewEnglandFox Posted 12 January 2018 Share Posted 12 January 2018 I'm fine with English clubs hemorrhaging money on agent fees. It's such an inefficient use of money with so little marginal return to spend £50M+ on a player. The European Elite that English clubs usually don't stand a chance against are much more efficiently run. Our clubs should learn from their own mistakes and not need the governing body to make rules to fix stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They offer not one single decent, honourable or positive contribution to the world of football. I wouldn't be so quick to generalize. It's more a case of a few bad eggs spoiling it for everybody else. Also, imagine players managing themselves - I can't see it being realistic unless they or their parents step up in terms of dealing with the matter. Many players have a terrible way of dealing with money and basic questions such as housing, insurance, etc. The problem with agents is that it's a highly unregulated market. In essence, anyone can become an agent or claim to be one. There used to be a FIFA exam you had to pass, that is gone now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
