Ed's I know i shouldn't believe a word I read from the papers but the story that suggested Uniteds transfer acquisition team tried to bypass Rioja during Haaland talks rings so similar to Ed 002's claims that we are amateur at best in our dealings. Any truth that we did indeed try and pull a fast one again and deal with Alfie instead?

{Ed002's Note - According to Mino it was not quite like that, but amateurish still.}

I don't know enough about what agents do or don't to know who is a great agent and who isn't, however, Raiola gets plenty of stick.

Undoubtedly some agents will be easier to work with than others but if we're daft enough to pay Raiola mental amounts of cash to get deals done then that's our fault not his. If I was a top player I'm pretty sure I wouldn't mind on a personal level having him as an agent as from the outside he always appears to get good deals for his players.

What do you think of Raiola as an agent ed002?

{Ed002's Note - He gets the best deals he can for the players and others he deals with. He is straightforward and honest.}

I think the same. I always say, if I wanted an agent, I think I'd choose him. Seems to get the best deals.

His players seem to love him but he could do with some PR help and for the players.

Pogba is killing his own brand with Mino and needs some proper advice on that front imo.

I also think Mino will be fuming he can’t get Pogba out even though the player wants to leave. Doesn’t play will for him and probably why he’s bad mouthing. I can see why it looks bad on the club too but when you sign a contract you sign for period of time. Utd need to accept he can leave for free or now for a fee.

We all know Fergie had his favourite agents and Mino never played ball that’s why I think he has a bit of bad tint to Utd fans.

I’m the same AR- you’d want the biggest baddest b&$tard repping for you. why bark when you have a dog.

{Ed002's Note - It is nothing about “brand”. And Mino is not “fuming”.}

Was the pogba from juve transfer not held up because of him demanding a big fee?

{Ed002's Note - He was paid a big fee.}
