Even as a united fan i must admit Arsene Wenger loved his players ,he always took the bullets for his players and his players would always let him down
Some of the players towards the end were not worthy of his warmth and playing for him but that's just a generational thing. Most of today's players are just big kids!
This is a good video for a lot of modern fans that think real life is like Football Manager or FIFA where you can just move players around like their personal lives don't matter.
I feel like there is alot that us people on the outside don't get to know about transfers especially the negotiating process player's salary, agents' fees, image rights alot of these are hidden from the public
I work in mergers and acquisitions, and there is a lot that goes on behind the scenes when buying a company that people on the outside don’t know about.. fees and who gets paid what.. with clauses on performance etc, mad really
Schweinsteigers Man Utd contract was published by Football Leaks...it ran to 36 pages. There's a bit more to this than 'x years at x wages plus bonuses', how to get out of your contract early for example, as Leo Messi has discovered.
I know from the documentary that Sunderland had real trouble attracting players because of their location. Even when offering better prospects and wages and having great facilities.
@@Wreckedandruinedand Let's just say that the city of Sunderland does not have the reputation (deserved or no) of being a cool place to live in. Being known mostly for being a declined industry and shipping town. Plus North East weather.
In Brazil the combination of players' lack of education along with corrupt and/or incompetent club managers make a fertile breeding ground for football agents who can become millionaires. Target number one is a transfer to Europe and if that fails target number two is to play for one of the two clubs with the biggest number of supporters: Flamengo or Corinthians. In the transfer scenario, there is neither planning nor presentations but only backroom deals. Gazumping and gazundering is rife and promised transfer fees are not paid so a staggering amount of transfer money end up being claimed in courts with huge interests and penalties. A very sad scenario indeed...

I think these type of videos are great and reminds people that footballers are normal people too. Decisions like transfers a much more nuanced than just money. Also explains why clubs in London switch players a lot more frequently (a recent case being Giroud)
"The hidden factors behind transfers, that we ignore on our popular series, sensible transfers, where we instead recommend every elite team in the world becomes Eintracht Frankfurt"
The biggest example of family and professional boundaries being blurred is at AC Milan with Gigio Donnarumma's brother, Antonio, being made 3rd choice GK on a 1m/year wage. The guy isn't good enough for Milan, or even Serie A, more like 4th division, but if it keeps Gigio happy and performing, I've got no problems with it!
Liverpool have missed out on a few players in the past because of the attraction of London for wives/girlfriends/families... Willian, Diego Costa, and Alexis Sanchez to name a few.
To be fair, if you're from Chile or Brazil, the last place you'd want to live in is Liverpool. Not only is it Liverpool, but it's full of Scousers. Double edged sword. Always waking up with no wheels on your Beamer. Nightmare. But the accent.... They'd be thinking "I thought this was England!" constantly.

Would have loved to see something about Bayern München's strategy about signing players. According to a lot of players, they always get an invite from Uli Hoeneß to his house at the Tegernsee, near Munich. There they chit chat about the player and how he would fit into the team and what they have to offer. They drink tea/coffee and later dine with fine wine. When the player makes a decision in favour of another club, Bayern officials still hold the contact to that player. That's why players like Sané, Vidal and Rafinha ended up in München, although they went to another club. And when they are part of Bayern, they get into a comfort zone that feels like being part of a big family. They don't get that much money, like they would in Madrid, Barcelona or England, but that feeling being part of a family together with the fact that they play on a high level, makes a lot of players stay there, although they got better offers, from other clubs!
Would you guys do a video about the structure of football/sports clubs? For example, what are the different responsibilities of a coach versus a manager or director of football?
@@amasim86 quite a lot of them actually live in central London. I used to live near David Luiz who has a penthouse near Putney Bridge, and loads of players live in Imperial Wharf
I think that my club Malmö FF benefits from being very close to Copenhagen. Malmö is a great city but add the fact that Copenhagen is only 20 minutes away makes a big difference to attract danish players. And our manager is former Milan striker Jon Dahl Tomasson. Idon't think that a club in Stockholm would be able to get him
Kinda explains why London clubs (Arsenal,Chelsea,Tottenham) have it easy to sign France related players.Alex Lacazette,Laurent Koscielny,Ngolo Kante,Malang Sarr,etc,etc
I'm from the Scottish Highlands, originally, and the two (ahem) big teams up there (Inverness Caledonian Thistle and Ross County) often lament how it is more difficult to entice players up there than it is to similar sized clubs in the central belt.
I am just looking in the comments to find out the players/clubs/agents/ managers this video was talking about. Just found out one so far at 2:06 it was Harry Maguire with Ole and Phelan.
Can you do sensible transfers for Inter Milan? That would be interesting as they could be a force next season after Conte's first season and Chinese owners promising more money for transfers this off-season
If I was coming to the end or past my peak, I'd swap title challenges and no guarantee of football, for a move to a lower club where first team was guaranteed and it suited my family. I hate this idea of if a huge club comes knocking that it's a no brainer. Family, Wages and length of a contract, stability in life is key.
I always believed location was a big part of it. I think that's why the three London giants seem to attract more South America and African players than any other club in the PL.
Christ I put more thought in than this on FIFA. I always check the formation, tactics & competition for places before I allow a player to leave on loan (yes I know it has no impact on their actual development)
@@doomdoktor Yes a knee problem was one of the reasons cited as well - but the agent at the time said that the brother-in-law suddenly demanding more money for himself was a factor too.
Idk about you guys but this seems pretty self-explanatory. Of course, thank you to Tifo for always being outstanding (i wouldn't even be here commenting on and liking all their videos) Who's excited for the next PL season??? :D
Moral of this story is: Never let Mike Phelan present a sales pitch of any kind. In fact, keep him behind locked doors, and swallow the key. Poor Mike.
I think the difference is in the phrasing: 1. Who would you consider loaning out so I can evaluate them and see who fit in my team and I could develop for you vs. 2. Who do you have available? I'll have them. 1- Good 2 - what is referred too here.
nah mate, it would be a step forward to move from a promotion hunting Championship side to a relegation threatened PL side. This player moved from a promotion hunting Championship side to a relegation threatened Championship side
Most of the reason why North East football is failing - location (shithole) and local economy (even conferences, business meetings, weddings etc contribute to a club's income)
If FC Tifo isn't a fully-formed club by season's start, I'm putting it down as a poor effort all round. Talk about 'most popular club on social media'!
Can someone please be a legend and let me know the name of the background music for this video? I've literally been trying to find out the song for months! 😥🙏🏻
*The case of Willian* Classic example of how location plays important role When Willian was in Chelsea, Barcelona tried to sign him TWICE with higher wages he decided to stay in london because his family was already well settled with his kids in very reputed English school, Willian even opened Restaurant as side business in London. He loves London so much he even joined Arsenal for next 3 years, he says he doesn't want to go back Brazil & wants to stay in London even after Arsenal most of his life time Meanwhile West Ham/Fulham/Crystal Palace be like : 🤑🤑🤑 😀😂😂 Anyways whats happening with Barcelona today is not pretty with appointment of Koeman, 8-2 defeat, Messi drama, ill treatment of Brazilian players in Barca, ironically that's not the reason Willian stayed away from Barca but friendly advices by his Brazilian colleagues Neymar, Dani Alves, Coutinho, Arthur who had bad experiences in Barcelona not just club but as a city, its very conjusted & ghetto, poverty etc Just Google Barcelona buildings, you guys will understand & makes sense
Disagree with the building's aspect, barcelona has some of the most incredible architecture in the world. By far my favourite city in terms of architecture.
What? You like your own city, that's good, but you're not making any sense. Barcelona is a BEAUTIFUL city and its weather is objectively better than London's. Barcelona, the club, well that's a different story.
Ings was always going to join Southampton surely since it’s his boyhood club and he was on loan there the previous season. I think it makes more sense if it was Trippier or maybe Welbeck
