And besides, even Wayne Rooney can work out for himself that if he left he could get more money elsewhere. You don't need to be a commercial genius to work that out.

In an ideal world I would say the player should be able to work all this out themselves and where is best for them to go.
I have to say based on some comments i've seen that agents do seem to have this much power over a player and do tell them what to think and where to go. We had it with Wes Brown where he almost left and went to Newcastle due to his agent, Fergie said if he could talk to the player direct it would be sorted but it all had to go through an agent.
Even these new talks with Rooney aren't, it is all going through the agent. The agents only care about money not the player
