Mellow to a point pal. A player will tell a Manager within reason, what he is seeking and not just leave it to moving on to the CEO or COO in our place. In other words what's the point of a Manager meeting a player not knowing roughly what they want.

Imagine Taylor speaking with a player and then sending them to speak with Douglas and Co only to find out they want 10k a week. There has to be some insight in what a player is after before progressing further.
