In the article they talk about a man I really dislike: Jorge Mendes.

 

The epitome of everything I dislike in modern football. A man that is neither a player or involved with a club, yet he can manipulate clubs and players at will. Examples of his behaviour, among others, would be the threats to move his players and unsettle teams unless his players are signed (happened at Real with Ronaldo), his act to promote his players at the expense of the teams (happened at Deportivo La Coruña last year, they got relegated) and other shadowy business he conducts.

 

I thought English football was not affected by this plague: agent power.

You'd almost let them have him. For charity reasons. Once a team that brought forth players like Frank Lampard, Rio Ferdinand, Joe cole, John Terry and so on... Now they're reduced to being a haven for players who royally failed at better clubs like Steward Downing and Andy Carroll.
