Yorkie Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 So much utter, utter bullshit going on/being said in English football these days. The Premier League is just so utterly rancid. The comments about the Swansea job, man. And that from Brady. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wullie Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 The point in the PFM article about the PL being largely foreign owned, largely foreign managed and mostly made up of foreign players is what makes it all so funny, the way they go on about the league being one that requires some sort of particular expertise that you absolutely can't get anywhere else, despite the league's more successful clubs largely being managed by foreigners who have hit the ground running no bother.

Hanshithispantz Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 I don't see how you could say any Premiership mainstays have no culture like, actually discounting rubbish rugby towns there's few football clubs in England you could say that about.

Hanshithispantz Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 She meant corporate culture surely? Aye looking into it I think you're right, "no culture" has been a massive twist of words although talking about re-branding the football clubs is vile. “Getting the culture right, being a place where something is expected of you,” Brady said. “That wasn’t there when my chairmen took over. “The Olympic Stadium had been built less than a mile away from us; we saw that as a real opportunity to change the brand of the club.” Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 http://www.birminghammail.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/newcastle-grudgingly-sold-james-milner-11959032? James Milner was only sold to Aston Villa because Newcastle thought they could sign Bastian Schweinsteiger for the same money. But having flogged Milner, the Magpies' hopes of landing Schweinsteiger were scuppered when they were quoted more than three times as much for the German star. Former Toon coach Terry McDermott has lifted the lid on why Milner was allowed to leave St James' Park for Villa Park in August 2008. He revealed that he and boss Kevin Keegan were reluctant to lose Milner, but the club's board thought they had lined up Schweinsteiger to replace him. Milner went on to become a popular figure at Villa for the next two seasons under Martin O'Neill before a big money move to Manchester City in 2010. It is believed Villa snapped up the versatile midfielder for £12 million, although McDermott has suggested the fee was more like £15 million. "We were actually at the club when we sold him, myself and Kevin Keegan," he recalled. "We sold him for 15 million quid. "The story goes - and this is a true story - we didn't want him to leave but we needed to get other players in because we'd had a bid of 15 million quid. "Kevin said 'if we sell him for 15 million quid, how are we going to replace him?' "They said 'we've already got one - Schweinsteiger'. He's at Man United now but seven or eight years ago he was a superstar and they said we could get him. "The idea of accepting the bid of 15 million for Milner, which was a lot of money then, and then we're looking to get Schweinsteiger it's a no brainer. "But after he's signed for Villa - the day after - we're trying to sign Schweinsteiger and the answer was 'absolutely no chance, it will cost you £50 million if you wanted to buy Schweinsteiger'. "So we had no one to replace him. But he was irreplaceable anyway because he could play anywhere." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
