I think Neville says what he does because of his coaching relationship with the national team. I don't think he's foolish enough to hinge his job on English players if he becomes a DoF. I just mentioned the contract negotiations of his ability to look at both sides of the coin and deal with agents once the manager identifies the targets.

I don't think he's a carbon copy of the old school hard work + pints + sausages and bacon = great performances or anything. But if we get a director of football or someone in charge of recruiting for the academy from around the globe, it will need to be someone who already has what it takes, not someone who might or might not grow into the role.
 
Our lack of activity in the transfer market is seriously frustrating. I don't care it's early days, people said that last year as well and we ended up with feck all signings. Chelsea are a classless club but credit where credit is due, they sort out their transfer business swift and smooth, something we lack severely in recent years.
I completely agree. I can see this summer being extremely frustrating again, it's just fecking annoying that so many players come out the wood work and reject us, with some not even being linked to us in the media.
Are we the laughing stock of the transfer market? I dunno.
Well, on to Thursday and closer to the WC with not a inkling of a signing. Meh
 
Agent Dave let me down with Thiago, let's see if he can pull this one off.

Oh no, I caught his innuendo bug!
 
So what does a DOF do? Is he the guy who identifies and negotiates with targets and 'gives' these players to Van Gaal, or is it a case of Van Gaal saying "I need a battler in midfield with good passing and a bit of vision...go get me one"?
 
I don't think none of those cb's are coming to us, Benatia rumored to be going either Barcalona or City, Mangala said he would prefer london over manchester I think the ship has sailed in getting one of those cb's.

That means all of them are coming to us. Work on your grammar, son.
 
Benatia and Kompany. Ugh.

Only way I'd get over that would be if we signed Hummels.
 
He's always having those rants about Glazers beint cnuts and Woodward being bad, nothing new really, just hitting a new low.
 
Benaita and Mangala, who's better? I've not seen either of them play.
 
Why are we even giving his tweets any attention? He's a nobody.
