Can he play centre forward?
Absolutely, at a point in this whole restructuring he’s going to be asked “are you willing to work under this new structure?”, and that will be one that involves him having very little to do with recruitment, except maybe being involved in conversations regarding areas to strengthen. Which means he’ll be judged purely on the results and the way the team play. So even if he does accept his role being marginalised, he won’t last long if things stay like this.He became a caretaker manager as soon as the INEOS deal got approved.
Well, he was the CEO, so I guess he managed the club. He would surely have known about what was going on.What exactly did he ‘lord’ over? He wasn’t involved in any of the sponsorship deals, he’s been largely on the football side of things.
Was he in charge of/played a part in player contracts? Hasn't everyone kinda assumed they've been making hidden payments to players for years now?What exactly did he ‘lord’ over? He wasn’t involved in any of the sponsorship deals, he’s been largely on the football side of things.
Of course because CEOs are supossed to be competent but the ones we had were impotent in their decisions making. Things that are normal for other clubs are improvement to us.It's sad that a good CEO appointment is was constitutes a game changer for a football club.
Yepp! It was definitely one of my life goals!If you’re not on the Caf you haven’t made it in life basically
Thing is if this was an MCFC or Liverpool appointment you’d be disappointed that they’re “continuing to strive for elite success, we should be doing that” but because we’re doing it, it’s a “sad” - Is this forum never fecking happy? Are we always looking for the negatives or something?It's sad that a good CEO appointment is was constitutes a game changer for a football club.
That's the understatement of the century.Oh great, let’s shit on the guy before he’s even started work for then club.
Would you expect our rivals to cheer us on? If he’s still posting this stuff when he’s in the job then we have a problem otherwise who cares.
Also Bayern probably did deserve to win in 90mins back in ‘99 but it was fated and what happened in extra time is history!
Mitchell as head of recruitment and ashworth as sporting director are for me.Maybe we could attract Maldini,however not sure in what role that would be
He's never been the CEO of City. He's had multiple roles first at Barca then at City, each one stepping up in responsibility, and appeared to be on course to be their next CEO when their current one left or retired. But he hasn't had that role in the past before joining us.Well, he was the CEO, so I guess he managed the club. He would surely have known about what was going on.
And even if just transfers, there were surely dodgy payments involved there too.
I don't believe press has any Idea who United are targeting for these positions .Mitchell as head of recruitment and ashworth as sporting director are for me.
After nabbing Omar feel more confident we can get Ashworth now
Yeah this appointment certainly proves thatI don't believe press has any Idea who United are targeting for these positions .
No. But he can take over OnanaCan he play centre forward?
There was evidence uncovered of hidden payments to Mancini. I don’t think there’s been any evidence of hidden payments to players and according to their own figures, City have one of the largest wage bills in football. They also spread it across a relatively small first team squad where they focus on quality, not quantity.Was he in charge of/played a part in player contracts? Hasn't everyone kinda assumed they've been making hidden payments to players for years now?
Perhaps this chap wasn't involved at all, I have no idea, but Man City's dodgyness isn't just sponsorship deals.
Jeez at least give him a chanceIt's easy to look good when you've been playing on cheat mode.
True.First time we sign someone before the media announces anything.
Would hate for him to be our manager. He’s not our manager, he’s City’s manager.Pep in the Summer please.
Nah. Results NOW.Let's give it a solid 12 months before we start hyping or writing off a CEO yeah?
WasYepp! It was definitely one of my life goals!
Head of recruitment is supposed to be a position above the Chief scout and the chief analyst. It can be someone that is independent or one of the DOF's assistant. Basically the position always exist but it's not necessarily formal. Also head coaches aren't really part of this, in the sense that while their input might be valued, it's not necessary.Maybe I’m behind the times but what would a “head of recruitment” even be?
Wouldn’t recruitment be a joint effort between the Sporting Director, Manager and Chief Scout anyway?
For context, he was director of partnership sales (Sept 2013 - Jan 2015) and senior VP group commercial director Jan 2015 -September 2016, before moving onto more senior roles at the club, culminating in the COO role in 2020. Its almost inconceivable that he wasn’t involved in the club’s sponsorship deals during this period, and indeed prior to this period, he joined the club in 2011.Tweet got community noted. It does seem pretty wishful thinking that the one senior executive that joins United happens to be the one not involved in the 115 charges.
Yepp! It was definitely one of my life goals!
We're in a strange era of football where players identities are less important than they used to be. Now it's about the backroom staff, perhaps there will be massive announcement vids for clubs upgrading to Windows 13.What are City fan's reactions? Do they even care?
It's such a weird/pitiful state for a fanbase to be in. Getting hyped for signing a businessman.
