Popular Post AlbanyNYToffee Posted July 30, 2019 Popular Post Report Share Posted July 30, 2019 Marcel is tremendous. Absolutely love his negotiating prowess. We've seen on numerous occasions 'here's our price take it or leave it'. Sure sometimes that means we don't get the player but it also protects us from a certain amount of risk. I'm a bigger fan of Walsh than most on here, over time he's proven to have more hits than misses and every DoF has hits and misses, but whoever was negotiating while he was in charge (can't remember if he was just the talent spotter or spotter and negotiator) was TERRIBLE. The players we bought are good players, the fees we paid are not. Surely Marcel would have said Keane 20m or we'll find someone else, Siggy 25-30m or we'll find someone else and so on. Seems like every deal under Walsh/Koeman was 10m more than the rest of the market was willing to pay. We were always the sucker. I just get the sense the list of targets is much deeper under Marcel which allows you to hold other clubs accountable for crazy asking prices. More work to (hopefully) be done this summer but I know with Marcel here the club is in the best of hands. plaidharper, Sibdane, Romey 1878 and 5 others 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finn balor Posted August 4, 2019 Report Share Posted August 4, 2019 He seems a cool cat. I get the impression the players know he isn’t fucking them about and comes across like a father figure. He seems to have all the contacts, clubs, agents. Could just see fat sams face when he was appointed. Knowing his greasy fat fingers wouldn’t get chance to get them brown envelopes he likes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
