The agents fee is part of the contract, a deal cannot be done without his agent accepting his cut. An agent gets an agreed percentage of the players contract plus signing on fee. Say signing on fee is £1mill and he is in £40k a week for 4 years if the agent get 10% of that which is a conservative guess the agent would get £932k On top. It's the percentage that the agent wants that causes problems as it can vary between 5% and 45% depending on how greedy an agent is and how good he thinks he is. £932k! That's more than I earn in a whole year! The wonderful life of an agent

Somewhere down the line I made a wrong career move!
I think schools should consider making 'how to become a football agent' part of the national curriculum. Just think what a bunch of slimey b@stards we'd be bringing through the educational system!

I've never pretended to be itk unlike your good self. None of us have EVER said we're itk we just have contacts that are, hope that's clear enough for you:-) You do realise that's the same thing? That's what ITK means on here. Nobody actually thinks your the player, the player's agent or in the negotiating team. For what it's worth, I'm inclined to think you boys do get some info but despite numerous promises, you're still getting sand in your vagina when somebody doubts you, so you always come across as a bit of a dick. Why are you so arrogant that you feel people should believe you? We've all been on here long enough to know most 'ITKs' are charlatans so the genuine ones should expect doubts and not be so precious. My advice is man up or keep what you know to yourself and leave it to Marc. He seems to manage social interaction a lot better than you. PS Have a nice holiday.

I don't hear of anyone else interrested in him, so the agent will have to agree to stoke demands if he wants any money or not.

We've agreed to pay too much for him anyway, now he's just taking the piss.

More fool the player.
He isnt training with the first side properly, isn't involved in their tour, had a ropey injury record last season and he is risking his short to mid term career by letting his agent play silly buggers.
If I was Stoke i'd offer him a deal and set a deadline and move on.
If Carto is as good as the claims then we should have a shortlist as long as your arm of lads that can come in and do a job.

If it had been online and you could find it and I couldn't it would give me an even bigger reason to be in awe of you! I feel that if I could but touch the hem of your robe I too could join the immortals!

If people think you're full of shit then let them. As I said, 19 out of 20 ITKs are full of shit so you should expect scepticism and disbelief. On the other hand you can continue to have petty, point scoring, childish arguments with them all and come across as a bit of a petty child. I'll leave that completely up to you. It's just friendly advice you can take or leave

Is it just me that feels that Assaidi needs us more than we need him? I rate the lad and understand this is business but FFS his whole "saga" is getting on me tits. I agree fuck him off to January and get him for a few million less and fit. Now where the f@ck is this Mystery Winger the ITK's have been going on about?

Cheers.
At that money I'd be happy to walk away. He scored a few brilliant goals but I'm not convinced he's worth 4.5m never mind 7m.
