Not many £400m+ turnover businesses have a key member of staff sounding so limited and looking like a bag of shite..

Levy’s comment about being disappointed at the end of a transfer window if we didn’t get our targets. Epic troll init.

Yikes.. think Rose could've handled that chat a lot better tbh.. I get he was annoyed for the lack of game time, but he went with all guns blazing straight from the get go, super confrontational. He def didn't do himself any favours there.
Yeah that was the chat you have when you've had chats and not got through to someone.

He was just full of anger and didn't really act well. If you're Jose and you don't fancy someone and they do that, you strike them out. Wouldn't blame Jose.

Rose was being a bit immature would expect that of a 20 yo not 29 Yo, was surprised and disappointed. He must have boiled it up though as Jose was new etc, which maybe explains his case

Jose really puts the pressure on his medical team. I know he wants and needs his best players to play, but it's not like the medical staff are trying to exaggerate the extent of the injuries. I felt sorry for the guy when he was just trying to let Jose know that Son would need to have a scan on his arm.

Yea that was the only time I thought Jose has been a bit out of order, not sure he meant to come across like that but to me that wasn’t very nice behaviour from him. Otherwise been impressed with him.

Some find the whole documentary was scripted yet called out on those awkward moments. Does it even make sense to have a scripted show having awkward moments at all? I guess some are just so hard to please even when watching something of a reality documentary.

Eriksen will be shooting his feet if the meeting with Levy and Mourinho was scripted. No one would have ever approved of the scripts of saying its never about financials for one's next job. That could only come out from one's own will. And for Levy, that was really a commendable effort in underlining the resolve to keep Eriksen matching any wages offered.

Lloris changed my perception of him now. He even admitted he was far more vocal than he looked. His focus and concentration made him look quiet and meek. But wow, the way he chided the team vs Southampton in the FA Cup for having 5 defensive players in the box but still not aggressive enough, letting them to come into the box so easily, and everyone one in the fucking dressing room has that responsibility - ?????? just that his pitch went up higher addressing the team ?

No one has really said the whole thing was scripted.

It basically started out with people point out how weird and unusual the voiceover was in one scene, and then we had a bunch of people doing what they do in every other thread and hyperbolising what was said and turning into a statement that was never made.

fair play to Danny for standing up to Josè and wanting a reason for why he has been left out

I would cut jose slack in this instance. He seemed frustrated and just angry at the situation. I mean how cna you achieve your goals if you can't score any...

I've never seen Hitchens before, based on the episode introduction, I thought he was an agent.

I’d never heard of him either. How has this dude flew under the radar? He comes across as someone who is punching way above his level.

Belongs in a Guy Richie flick.

Yep, his threat to see Daniel was akin to ‘I’ll tell my big brother on you’.

Might help you a little bit about the egg head scout.
Thanks for bringing some actual fact-based information to this thread. Because it's always really useful to judge a person solely based on how they look or how they come across in 2 minutes' worth of screen time. Based on some of these recent posts, you'd think we have complete naifs in charge of the club and Hitchens just somehow managed to blag his way into his current position. :facepalm:

I haven't watched it but surely a head scouts job is mainly about overseeing and directing a scouting network and being able to suggest from that a list of suitable candidates not how you come across in a meeting.
