1) Money - I aint playing for free. 2) Attractiveness of league - Would want to play in the best possible once the money side is covered. 3) Level of club - Going to effect how many magazine deals etc I can get. 4) Friends/family - Would be boring without them ![]() 5) Weather - Bit of sun so I can show off my new convertible ![]() 6) Manager - Wouldn't reallt hold much sway over me tbh, how many people don't like their boss and do just fine? 7) Competition for places - I'm pretty confident by nature, wouldn't be afraid of a challenge. 8) Club history - Wouldn't matter to me at all. |

Okay, my final list is.... 1. Whether it's Arsenal or not (yes, I added this) 2. Attractiveness of league - I'd be a league snob, only EPL or La Liga. Maybe Serie A at a stretch. 3. Level of club 4. Friends/family - Turns out I like to be near the parentals (i'm a mommy's girl AND a daddy's girl) so would take a lower paying job in England over a higher paying job in Spain 5. Money - If all the clubs were at the same levels, similar ambitions and in the same location money would be the decider 6. Weather - If my family were happy to move with me, the place with the best weather for me would be my choice 7. Manager - not too fussed in all honesty 8. Competition for places - I'd be the best so it wouldn't matter. 9. Club history - if it's not the club I support, I couldn't give a crap. |

Depends on your own circumstances (age, ability, position, wealth, aspirations) which dictate every criteria in that list. |

True but I guess the above answers show that different things, matter to different people so who are we to judge why such a player chooses one club over another.

yes, but an experienced, wealthy player is going to have completely different reasons for going to club x over and above an emerging 18 years old who isn't getting first team opportunities at club y. both are ambitious, but will choose different clubs for valid reasons. |

Just out of curiosity stacie i would have thought manager would be high on your list.. especially when seeing at arsenal how a manager can really inspire you.. henry would not have been the player he was/is without wenger |

I get your point but joining because of a particular manager wouldn't be higher on my list than the other reasons. I'm not really one who's found a need to be inspired by people in charge. |
