The transfer window reached new heights on Thursday (03/08/2017) when Brazilian forward Neymar completed a sensational switch from Barcelona to Paris Saint Germain for a world record fee of £200 million, that fee was more than twice the fee Manchester United splashed on Paul Pogba last year when the French midfielder became the world record signing. These facts are all over the internet, but what are the consequences of the fee? Will transfer fee begin to cover a multitude of sins? Will PSG go on to prove that a trophy like the UEFA Champions League can actually be bought?
Who Is A Football Manager?
The word 'manage' means to 'make do' with available resources (footballers) and do so 'effectively'. There seems to be a slow but gradual breaking away from the norm, in the past managers were known to put to efficient use the number of players they had and 'grind' out a positive result. Sir Alex Ferguson was once told "you won't win anything with kids", this comment was as result of the Scot's faith in youth which later paid off massively. A football manager is he who is able to read a player, a footballer could be a struggling striker but a phenomenal midfielder, there are players who start a season slower than others, some fullbacks have the urge to run while some prefer to guard over their defensive territory and be less adventurous. It is the duty of an active manager to notice the make up of the team AND then go into the transfer market in search of players who will complement the squad he already has.
What Has Changed
The recent takeovers of European clubs by oil rich entities is beginning to turn managers into a lazy bunch. If you give a manager £500m for instance, he will spend every bit of it on not more than ten players, now the quality of these players is a topic for another day. Managers are now in a race to 'outsign' each other. The tactical prowess, the mind games and the touchline warfare is becoming a thing of the past. Can football managers now be likened to a fat kid who wants all the fancy cakes he sets his eyes on? Are managers doing it the easy way? Just get players who know their way around a goal post and breathe easy? New signings in a team should be an addition and will remain an integral part of football management but it shouldn't be abused.
The Football Business
The World is changing and football is not left out, maybe the high demand to make profits from owning a club is pushing the managers to sign players 'at all cost'. The patience in football has obviously been lost that is why a Pep Guardiola or Jurgen Klopp has no room for another 'trophyless' campaign, even Antonio Conte might well be looking over his shoulders midway through the season. To make ends meet these 'new age' managers demand the players they want just so they(the managers) can deliver, the cost of getting these players do not matter anymore.
