Omar Berrada to the rags

[Saddleworth2]

Because he started work with City in 2011 as head of international business development and eventually worked his way up to COO of the CFG 3 or 4 years ago. Can you name any of his colleagues? Besides Soriano, Bergstein and Khaldoon I know I couldn't (I had heard of Berrada's name but couldn't have told you what he did). If it wasn't for the fact that he's gone to them lot you probably still wouldn't have heard of him.

Absolutely unimportant in the overall picture at City or the CFG, they'll just get someone else in to do his job.

I had heard of him 4 or 5 years ago. Mostly because of his COO (Chief Operating Officer) title. As I had worked for a number of those in the finance industry. Traditionally a COO looks after functions like HR, IT, Operations. In City's case Omar's brief was almost all commercial. So the Trafford bunch, having established that Football will be at the centre of their organisation appoint a commercial guy to run it.

As Bob Mortimer would say, Hee, Hee, Hee.

I knew of his name but had no idea what he did.
Could have been a throw in specialist for all I knew.
Besides, he didn't even have his own jigsaw.

And yet according to Sky:-

"United see Berrada as the ideal choice of CEO because of his fantastic record running both the football and commercial side of a club - having enjoyed huge success at City and Barcelona.

He brokered deals that saw City sign the likes of Erling Haaland and Jack Grealish, as well as generate record revenue from the City Academy."

It makes you wonder just what do we pay the likes of Khaldoon, Soriano and Begiristain for when Berrada did it all himself before going for a game of golf in the afternoon?

Swap Berrada for Woodward & change Haaland & Grealish to Pogba & Ronaldo ……

It’s easy this journalism malarkey.

Just showing the intellect of the average Rag as follows
Rag - City are so powerful they’ve lost their CEO to Man Utd.
Me - he was not our CEO.
Rag - sends a screenshot from The Telegraph confirming Omar moved from being our COO to them.

Thick as mince.

I've had very similar chat..Brian dead. CTID

What an actor by the way. He was the heart of the wire…shame.

Fantastic character I couldn't agree more.

Doing his job well with competent people above & below whom you can delegate & trust is totally different to being the only sane person in the crazy house. Hope it back fires spectacularly for him & he leaves within 3 months for his own mental health citing working with clowns is……

What's the issue?

A very sensible statement.

Because it’s nothing at all like that.

He’s a replaceable suit, not a world class centre half haha

 

[Le Havre Oswald]

Isn’t he the Algerian we had on loan in the early 00s

 

[Johnny Mars Bar]

[Tim of the Oak]

Omar has started work!

 

[BlueDejong]

disgusting

 

[bluemanchester]

That needs to be on X and facebook, in fact it needs to be out there, everywhere.

 

[BlueMooner87]

It does surprised me if he is able to join them without any significant gardening leave.

He may have alot of knowledge which if he was to join scum and start moving qualiky could effect our strategy

 

[jrb]

He will be crunching the Rag numbers back in Barcelona and thinking WTF, where do I start?
