On the bench today so can't be too close to a move
Agreed. Look at a recent picture of him and a recent picture of Davinson Sanchez. They are the same height ...I'm positive this is the reason why he has no faith from Pochettino and will be sold.-a good 20/25lbs heavier than anybody else....
Pullis will be good for Wimmer; it's attacking players he stiflesHope he ends up at Albion, I know I'm in the minority but I have slot of respect for Pulis.

I'd agree but to be honest defence is his bread and butter, it's the reason why he was done so well, relatively speaking.
Plenty of smaller teams get bigger up for trying to play great football but ulimately getting relegated, Pulis does what he needs to to get every point.
Who cares where he ends up!

I hate Tony Pulis. I hate him with an irrational hatred bordering on the clinical. However, this hatred only occurs twice a year. On the other 290+ days of the season and 363 days of the year he seems a standup guy that is deserving of respect. NBCsn has a behind the scenes look at clubs in the 'Being Liverpool' way and the WBA one was great. And he seemed pretty damned likeable.Hope he ends up at Albion, I know I'm in the minority but I have a lot of respect for Pulis.
I respect him as a coach but he is allegedly massively dodgy in football terms as evidenced by Gillingham and palace. Any manager asking for a clause in his contract to earn when he sells players is rotten to me. When you know that and you watch him trying to sell evans, berahino etc it is grim.I hate Tony Pulis.

I hear your point but it could be ethically argued that it is reasonable for the coach to get a percentage of any transfer fee. Why? Because the difference in the purchase price of the player and the selling price can be attributed to the efforts of that coach. Now I do understand that this could feel/seem/devolve into something real slavery-y but there is a point in there. Teams don't own people they control the footballing exploits of the people. If you improve those and make that person a more attractive asset then why shouldn't you receive something.I respect him as a coach but he is allegedly massively dodgy in football terms as evidenced by Gillingham and palace.

You get a salary with bonuses for the success of the team. When they start getting money for dismantling the squad it's a conflict of interest. Imagine if hee was in charge at spurs. Would you want him profiting from selling Kane, Ali, eriksen et al? He would be falling over himself to move them on.I hear your point but it could be ethically argued that it is reasonable for the coach to get a percentage of any transfer fee. Why?
