Seems like he’s only got himself to blame for this. Declaring he’s going to leave with a year left on his contract yet having no exit strategy agreed!

It feels like a very low-key and somewhat shabby ending to his time here. Not sure who or what’s to blame but surely he deserves better.

Isnt it admirable that he doesnt have an agent? That's an ethos the whole game applauded Paul Scholes for

What more would you like the club to do in this situation?
Not sure really and I’m not saying the club is culpable.

I got as far as “unless he and Spurs can agree on a new club” and stopped reading.
Haven’t we said he can go on a free? So it’s not the club who has to agree to anything.

Its not, just newspapers making mountains out of molehills again.
Think De Gea is still without a club too which is crazy.

The entire sport would be significantly better if everyone followed his lead.

Maybe but let's not fool ourselves. Clubs would take advantage of players in that scenario.
A club can only take advantage of a player nobody else wants. If nobody else wants the player then they're probably not worth all that much.

I always felt that agents work is over stated. Their basic element, looking after the players interest could be undertaken by a good sports lawyer.
Their value beyond help with what a player deserves and looking out for them is their unscrupulous nature in being able to inflate what a players worth, not secure them against being taken advantage of.
Thats effectively all the PFA do, is act as a legal guide
In what way? Players will know roughly what each other gets paid. They can hire a lawyer to check over the contract to make sure it's what they agreed to and above board. Job done.

If Estate agents move you into a house only to tell you the day after the house is crap and you should be aiming for another straight away.....
Big difference. Estate agents typically charge between 0.9 and 3.6% of the cost of selling the house. Football agents got up to 40% of some deals (pogba to utd being one). Getting paid by both the selling club and buying club. Where they actually should be paid by the player as at the end of the day. He is who they are supposed to work for. Clubs also pay the agent loyalty fees for players to stay at their club and do the job they are paid to do.
