So new manager comes in - I want to keep Wanyama is his cry. OK says Les. Les goes to Wanyama - What would it take for you to stay me ol mucker. Wanyamas response - I want to play for someone else and unless you pay me £150,000 per week that's what I'm going to do! Les to new manager - Wanyamas wage demands would cripple us! Can you get someone similar that we can buy? New manager yes I want XYZ player. ERGO the Manager (it doesn't matter who he wants to retain) is not in the driving seat. So if we sell VW before the new manager arrives it makes no difference VW is in the box seat.
