I imagine him sat in his office with his fingers in his ears loudly saying "la la la I'm not listening" over and over when the staff are telling him the players aren't worth what he thinks they are, or he's not offering enough for a potential new signing.
I used to be in awe he was such a stern negotiator, but now it's just depressing every transfer window especially when we bring in new managers.
I wish he would leave transfers to people who know better, give them a budget, and work with them find reasonable solutions to shifting unrequired players. He meddles too much at the detriment of managers, the players and the club
