the 9/10 is exaggerated , but think how many players are money-orientated , its a tough world there atm and players are gunna go for the best they can get, we did miss out on a hell of a lot of targets last year (some due to agents fees etc) and look how we ended up , the better players cost more money like it or not, and the job of an agent is to get the players the best contract they can, an agent aint gunna reccomend a player to a club who has no interest in paying their fees.
