One thing we do have to think about with any of these transfers is that most of these players will know Pelle is in the last year of his deal and no long term commitment from the club.....so we are asking them to sign for a manager that wont be here next year.....I know this might not be a big issue to most BUT....it must be in the back of their minds that a new manager would want to make his own changes?...just wanted to put this out there, as I think its a factor...maybe not a big one but must be something a player/agent would think about before signing....
Does anyone think that the questions over the long term future of Pelle would make any difference to the players we look at this transfer window?
Not in terms of signing them so much but it could impact their motivation near end of season if they know he's gone. It all depends on the new players - if they like MP they'll put in a full shift for him. If they're professionals like Kun they won't care either way and give it 100%.
It just goes to show what a difference having a respected coach makes in the transfer market; there are 2 other Germans on the way there as well purely to work with Van Gaal again.
I know its comical how some of these 'undercover' rags are about as subtle as a punch in the face. Sad fuckers
