Obviously Watford have seen something in City’s performance yesterday & will be approaching Ehab for permission to speak to McC, unfortunately for Grant, Ehab will demand £20 million in compensation & the deal will fall through.

I had no idea Pearson briefly managed them. They must have a higher turnover of managers than Chelsea.
