Its the European way though, the manager controls the players who are bought for him. He's a head coach more than anything else now

Should be a joint decision between Manager and the Chief Exec imo. Otherwise you end up with players the manager doesn't like/want.

I never said it was the right way, but its the European way.
Apparently he completed more dribbles in the CL than any other player. That'll probably be the stat they picked up on, its all stat based with chief execs and scouts these days.
Massively overpriced BTW too

I can only hope it works out as well for them Robinho did A lot of similarities. Over rated, over priced, Brazilian and name ends in "inho"

Fulham have signed Steklenberg
West ham have signed Adrian
Both keepers on frees, Steklenberg is a great keeper, haven't got a clue about Adrian tbf, but he's apparently highly rated.

On paper that is an amazing signing for Fulham.

Shame for Schwarzer though, probably means he's finished.

agree with this, fat Ronaldo for example 217 goals in 298 games in the EU, not good enough really

£22m + Wages. No idea on if he is worth that, got to have faith in TB but I would rather than manager chose the players as others have stated rather than been a glorified Chelsea but with X amount of people picking them rather than one
