I doubt it means that they're an unknown in footballing circles or even to the wider footballing community.

Rather, I would guess that it means that as of yet who they're talking to is unknown to the source.

Oh please.

Would you like to elaborate? Or did I obviously miss or confuse your atrocious attempt at wit before?

I have always liked the idea of a Director of Football. The manager has enough to do running the team. Having someone doing leg work on transfers and dealing with contracts takes some of the pressure off. It also takes away an area of conflict, if a player is dealing with the manager over pay that can raise areas of conflict, if the manager is removed from that it may help with team morale.

Wit no, facetious yes. Sorry.

Please be Monchi, it'd change the game completely. Imagine how far he could make this £100m kitty go. Licking my lips at the thought of it.

Only 2800-odd pages to the catch up on the Manager thread. Will be a while before the DoF is named :hayee:

Think it may be more than that, although I don't think we need much more tbh.

Can't see it being more unless we sell a big player personally

I've never given it much thought but I can see the benefits.

I've only seen two names mentioned Monchi and Overmars.

Let's be honest none of us has a clue what a DOF does or who potential candidates may be.

SUPER ITK WRD1878 from TEF has spoken

Talks resuming with Monchi on Thursday and there is also an unknown in the frame too.

Someone mentioned the M word at one stage (and it wasn't Monchi)
