Hi Ed's, I'm hearing that Bobby Duncan is all but gone, seems a shame all this garbage that surrounds him at the the min has come out in public with his agent acting the fool. I admire the lad wanting to be a first team player but he's only just turned 18 he should be working hard on the U23s and seeing if he can kick on from there for me. His agent seems to be screwing his career up before it's even started.

Mental health is very serious and I hope the lad's alright. Clearly though this agent is a problem. Based on his tweets he barely knows how to do his job (He quite literally didn't know how a 'loan with an obligation to buy' worked), and is clearly influencing Duncan on some level so he can get a better payday. There needs to be much more protection for youth players from these leeches masquerading as agents.

Though let's be clear that refusing to sell a player while under contract, is not "bullying". That isn't to say the player can't be annoyed or upset by it, but working with the club to find a solution or playing out your contract is typically the best way forward. His agent has helped no one with his comments.

If mental health is really his issue then I hope gets all the help he needs. That said, I think it is a really low blow by his agent using Duncan's issues as some sort of leverage. The agent is at the bottom of the barrell.

Some of the sexist and bigoted tweets coming to light from his agent shows what kind of person he is, an absolute low life. That said I hope Bobby Duncan does well where ever he goes and he finds some better advice shortly.

My favourite unearthed old Saif Rubie tweet:

"People wonder why english players don't develop when liverpool spend a fortune on the useless henderson instead of pushing Shelvey upwards"

Yeah. This guy knows his stuff, clearly.

Does he think the north east is a foreign country?
