Heard some French journo earlier saying we'd have to compensate Lille €2.5M
Levy will probably bulk at that
Well he is a bit timid in his physique.

We've already paid 3m for the coaches IIRC.

Is this legit then? Or are people just putting two and two together?

For weeks now we have heard how Levy wouldn't pay to get Poch out of his contract, pay Mourinho's wage etc. At some people should see this is bs. You know since it has actually happened.Heard some French journo earlier saying we'd have to compensate Lille €2.5M

There’s nothing wrong with that, but I was responding to someone saying it could be a sign Levy was gonna open the purse strings.

I do get a little nervous about these "money ball" types moving on to bigger clubs. Sure he nailed on some recruits at Monaco but they brought in massive amounts of players and have seen just as many busts (although that is true across every club). Reminds me a bit of the famous one who moved from Sevilla to Roma and hasn't been a success at all.
Cautiously optimistic I would say.

He just spent about £15 mill sacking a popular coach and his entire staff, and has made Mourinho the second highest paid manger in the world.
Probably not the time for the 'Levy you tight ****' cliches.

Monchi was a great success at Sevilla and then Roma.
He's now gone back to Sevilla

That's impressive. From the Wolves midfield straight to the managerial top.
Edited, and reported for member abuse.

Great at Sevilla, not good at Roma.

2 years is no time really to judge a Sporting Director though is it and it all depends on how invested the club were in having the role. I take your point though that he has only really had obvious success at Sevilla.
The problem with a FD in England is that you unearth gems that no one has heard off. Unfortunately, these players need first team playing time to develop that they won't necessarily get in the premier league. that's why it works better in other leagues.

It shows if nothing else that the club understand direction is needed and Campos would be about as good an appointment you can make. Fully on board.

Think the point is though that the relationship and trust between the DOF and manager/head coach is key.
When we appointed Ramos it was on Commoli’s recommendation, but the guy who we really needed was Monchi who had the pre existing close working relationship with Ramos.
It’s all ifs at the moment, but if Jose wants this guy and they are in synch then it could be a very important piece in the puzzle.

True, often the success is more about convincing a young Bale that we are the right club for him.
But there are players like Kante who can be bought under the radar.

I would back this whole situation more if we got Campos in.
I dont trust Mourinho's recent transfer record so to get Campos in would be a good move. Hopefully leave us in less of a mess when Mourinho ultimately turns sour.
