Who is Paul Mitchell and why have Spurs prised Southampton's head of recruitment away?

[Greenspur]

Get him in. I wonder how much due diligence went into signing Paulinho for example, a player who almost gave up football after a difficult period in Poland and Lithuania where he didn't settle.

He then openly admits in an interview last season that he has struggled to adapt and communicate with teammates at Spurs but is too lazy to learn English. Absolutely abysmal and exactly the type of mentality that continues to cost us. One of the reasons Sandro was successful was the way he threw himself into the banter of the dressing room making him a favourite with fans and players alike. So unfortunate he started to pick up those injuries.....

Maybe we should offer him to QPR and take Sandro back.

"with just a few clicks, Mitchell and his team could be watching any player, team or target anywhere in the world."

gosh how technology has advanced... or is it just Youtube!

The disturbing question is: what are they watching them do?

What happens to the young one then?

This "black box" doesn't happen to be a PC by any chance does it? And it's running Football Manager with someone on a database doing a search for players with high potential stats? Sounds technical!

Levy prised him away because Poch is failing and he's shook.
