Interesting that you disagree about Mitchell with Son's recruitment. Do you think he was an unknown or what?

We are never going to sign players who just want the money, he should know this and know that if we do sign one of his recommendations then they are coming because they want to play for the club, then its a win win, his rep is enhanced. If he is upset about Batshuayi well its obvious he is a mercenary prick who deserves all he gets at the Chavs and does not deserve to be at Spurs, get over it and move on or in this case resign.Because his career is built on being a finder of great talent. If a club doesn't sign that talent and his discovery vindicated, how does his reputation build?
I think the worry is that we signed a lot of duff players only a few years ago. Some were for low fees and we do not want to return to those days. it is not how much we pay that is important but the quality of the player and will he fit into our system, have the right attitude etc. we need to get a good replacement for Mitchell and hope he does not encourage his new club to buy players we are tracking.

Never ment to disagree I think your right glorified scouts the lot of them. Levy also too hands on, so a proper FD gets squeezed between a proper chairman and a proper manger. That's why levy goes through FD quicker than za za gabour got through hubandspaddy spur Interesting that you disagree about Mitchell with Son's recruitment. Do you think he was an unknown or what?
I can't think of a club that has a strong manager, chairman/owner and sporting director. There's always one of those three who's more of a background figure.Never ment to disagree I think your right glorified scouts the lot of them.

I hear he's a cut above the restI heard from a good source that we're lining up Trevor Sorbie as a replacement.
