Marcel Brands

[Gilbert..]

Things went downhill for him in summer 2019. The transfer activity was pretty poor with hindsight. Imagine if we'd taken that 35mil spent on Iwobi and bought a CB or CM. We now know that the purchase of Iwobi was not his idea.

He cant hide behind that because IF it wasnt then he sat there taking the money. Some make him out to be this genius football guru who was being held back by Everton.

Well he was..........

We dont know what would have happened if he was given full control, but its quite clear he was hamstrung within his role.

But anyway, im not doing the looking back thing any longer, forward with Fronks Super Blues, what happened before has happened.

Then he should have walked by principal. Not sat and drew a huge salary. Ah but who would have walked is usually the reply. Well im not interested in his own circumstances of coining it in. I'm interested in what he brought to this club. It surprises me how quick some are throwing him the get out of jail card. I dont really get the whole brands thing. He only ever worked in the dutch league. He's now back in the dutch league.
Its not inconceivable that he wasnt up to it here.

How far is Eindhoven from Caldy?

 

[Brownie]

That's poor from Marcel, you have to say.

 

[Aberblue]

Any chance he'll try to buy Fabian Delph from us?

 

[Mr K.Dilkington]

The beginning couple of pages of this thread are utterly sensational.

 

[Sweeneytoad]

He was culpable in the mess. If he'd of stood up to Moshiri at times, then some of these mercenaries wouldnt have been signed. I guess he had 3m reasons to keep his mouth shut, those skinny jeans needed financing.

what's he done?

 

[BluePeadar]

I wouldn’t hire him to help on a burger van

I think it's actually van Burger if you're referring to the PSV under 21 starlet.

 

[Brownie]

what's he done?

Rejoined PSV like a chump.

Principles. If you're calling for them then at least use the correct spelling.
It isn't inconceivable, but, given the litany of balls ups carried out by the rest of the crew over many years, in all probability he was just waiting for them to get it out of their system.
It's without question that what he was brought in to do was blocked, over ruled or interfered with at almost every turn, from manager appointments to player buying to academy structures.
He was left with basically selling as much deadwood as possible for as great a return as he could, something he dealt with fairly efficiently given the amount.
He isn't the whipping boy anymore, and the fact he did fall on his sword just weeks before el gordo was sacked should give you some indication of each of their character.

Didnt even notice my error there on the principle principal. Typing to fast while at work. But no excuse. Thank you Susie Dent. I'd say i will be looking out for your perfect grammar in future but i dont really go down that pedantic pr!ck route. I cba.

Bit i marked. Is there any proof of this?
