I think the point is: what's his remit? Is it control over transfers? Negotiating contracts? What?
Ask Hughsie and Gollum !!!!!!!!!!
Everton and Gollum hadn`t got a clue how Clubs now deal with transfers,having and still are,dealing in the 19th century world !!!
A manager determines with the Club,MCFC,who he would like and Marwood is then installed to act on behalf of MCFC and their manager (in this case Bobby Manc) to try and persuade to the Player and his Agents why its a good thing to transfer from "a" to "b" and discuss a fee with the Club in question.
This starts the ball rolling and when a fee has been agreed the Manger will talk to the said Player and tell him why it will help the Player.
That over,Marwood and Cook will then sit down with the player and his agent and throw £££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££,s galore at them to make them "feel at home"
Simple !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
