villaglint Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 (edited) Presumably Deano has placed a meeting in his Google calendar for 2 weeks time to discuss our transfer plans for the summer. Or maybe he’ll just join the already scheduled meeting with Lange in 10 days time. Is that going to give him long enough to get up to speed? Other online calendar applications are available.

Cliffy Biro Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 Genuinely not having a go here but if hes so highly rated then why was he at a Belgian 2nd division team? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He followed Pearson around. So he joined them when Pearson did after leaving spuds. Presumably Watford didn't want to hire a director of recruitment which is why he didn't leave with Pearson. He got the Belgian team promoted as well so not too bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't really explain why such a highly rated guy ends up there but i suppose it only matters what he does for us and i hope hes as good as some people are saying.

We seem to be getting the Pearson band together, minus the band leader. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
