Kostas 1,468 Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 They all use Football Manager anyways .André Villas-Boas was often accused of using CM to scout the opposition (think that was his job) during his stay here. Look where he's now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jose M 140 Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 WE LOOK IN GOOD HANDS! PA with plenty of power The name Marina Granovskaia will not mean anything to football supporters. But it means a lot to agents and power-brokers at the leading clubs; for she is emerging as one of the most influential people in the game. Granovskaia is Roman Abramovich’s PA at Chelsea and the decision was made some time ago to relocate her from Stamford Bridge to the training ground at Cobham. Granovskaia has become a hugely influential figure. Indeed it was she who was the conduit for Chelsea’s two big transfer deals of the January window — the signing of Fernando Torres and David Luiz — rather than the club’s sporting director Frank Arnesen. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/teams/chelsea/8375076/Chelseas-Kaka-fantasy-may-come-true.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henri 115 Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 Ive read that it was piet de visser who brought ronaldo to arnesons attention, de visser is also the guy who scouted/recommended alex, cech and robben to chelsea apparantly, he is currently romans personel scout according to reports and one of europes leading scouts from the last two decades, if you want to see the reports type 'de visser' 'ronaldo' 'romario' into google.No doubt that this is true, but every scourt in the world has connection/ or even friends he use or will be used. Scouting is not a one man show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henri 115 Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 Exactly my point. Scouting the next Brazilian wonderkid after he took part in the World Cup isn't impressive. Getting him to sign is.Ok, lets agree about that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
