    Harry Kane MBE

    Jesus...is Jason Burt embarrassed at all about how transparent he is being? Does he enjoy licking the Kane's boots? Can he look himself in the mirror and consider himself a man? Does his wife look at him with any sense of affection given he is cucking himself to the Kanes to make a buck?

    City purely trying to project the image of a club run sustainably and not pumped full of oil money. It’s so tedious. So boring. They’re either gonna pay up or they don’t. Kane has to live with being the highest paid player at a top 6 club, his boyhood club, for another year. fudging get to...

    The review from Daniel is hilarious. As it’s so true. It couldn’t have played out better if DL had hired a PR firm to rehabilitate his image, it probably would have gone exactly like this.

    Harry Kane MBE

    Echoing the takes here that it is incredible that the Kane’s are losing a PR war with Levy. GHod knows over the summer I was very against Levy and understood if Kane left. But the way they have handled it since has left a very sour taste and has got me back supporting Levy again! Amazing. There...

    Nuno Espírito Santo - Sacked

    One thing I like about Paratici is (I hope) that he seems to have a good appreciation for the quality of the coach, rather than just the reputation. So he can assess based on their merits, qualities, skills etc rather than what position their club just finished in. Nuno is already way smarter...

    Nuno Espírito Santo - Sacked

    Im sure the agent - Mendes in this case - does advise the player exactly that though? And given there are more than enough agents to choose from, he obviously is rated highly enough by his clients that he can continue to sign up new ones? I’m just trying to understand the tangible drawbacks of...

    Maybe they need a broker to help / advise them that going to X club is better than going to Y club? I assume the moment Mendes is proven to do something illegal that he gets suspended?

    Nuno Espírito Santo - Sacked

    I don’t think I am. I think it’s perfectly reasonable for good brokers to try and do right by both sides of a deal. Make it a good move for the player, make it a good move for the club. I think if Mendes had built up his career by doing right by clubs rather than players, he’d probably struggle...

    Maybe a lot of players think Mendes has benefitted their career too?

    Nuno Espírito Santo - Sacked

    And what’s the problem with that? Let’s say it’s Mendes’ influence that helps a player decide to come to us versus somewhere else, has he not played a role in benefitting us as a broker and would he not deserve to be compensated for that? Like, I’m just trying to get to the tangible issues...

    Nuno Espírito Santo - Sacked

    Anything genuinely unethical or unlawful I'd have a major concern with. But until proven I'd assume he's a person who is very good at his job and very influential in the game. And it's interesting that he seems to be a genuine strategic influencer in the game, not an order-taker, not a...

    What specifically do you think is the problem with Mendes? Is it that money flows out of the clubs / players' hands and into the agents'?

    Nuno Espírito Santo - Sacked

    Yeah...I think we'll be absolutely fine with Nuno. Seems like he played the way he needed to dominated the Championship in terms of chances created, and then adjusted after they got promoted so that they still had a system that they could rely on, but it relied a little bit more on the counter...

    Nuno Espírito Santo - Sacked

    Has anyone read anything on his Wolves Championship team? Even though he had good players, he must have had to play on the front foot there to break down defensive sides. I’ve seen the Tifo video on Porto, seems he got into too many draws at one point, but was at least flexible in finding...

    Nuno Espírito Santo - Sacked

    Weird to say but I think that 10 seconds shows he has a lot of charisma. I think he'll be a fine appointment. Players love and respect him. He's adaptable. He'll work within our constraints, and believes in his own ability in a way I'd want our manager to behave. As long as we aren't playing...

    Next Manager?

    But Doherty was neither crap, young or Portuguese? So where does something like that fit? It might help to have someone like Mendes who can fix things for us. Where there are second order effects of who he can get for us, because he does a favour for another third party. Of course we’d have to...

    Next Manager?

    On the Mendes thing - is it actually maybe a necessary thing for us to be in bed with someone so well connected? We can’t compete on finances, so we need to find a more creative way. At the time we got Doherty, he was likely worth a fair bit more than what we paid for him. It had Mendes all...

    Next Manager?

    If Nuno really is more adaptable and his Valencia side played a style of football that won’t put off our fans, then I need TP for my bunghole. I kind of agree with @Mr Gogolak . I don’t think managers are irrelevant but that’s not what they’re saying. I think so much stock is put in to the appointment but...

    Next Manager?

    I agree with this. There is something in the fact that we won’t be pushed into making a bad decision because of fear of negative headlines that I quite admire. And the last time we really took our time and thought about it, we landed Poch. So hopefully we will get someone just right for us here...
