This time round they\u2019ve recovered from a poor start with a great last quarter.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Arsenal:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0Always happy to finish in the top 4, and make achievers club. In danger of missing out this year due to lack of investment in building a\u00a0pipeline, which is beginning to become evident. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Liverpool:\u00a0<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Top biller in the 80\u2019s. Great confidence. Always a belief that this year will be THE year! Nearly did it a few years back but a big deal slipped at year end which scuppered their chances once again.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Southampton:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Liverpool\u2019s resourcer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Manchester United:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Most consistent performer over the last 20 years. Struggled though since their top client retired.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Manchester City:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> So much talent and potential to be top biller but more focused on just beating their peer and direct competition, Manchester United.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Spurs:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Sits next to Arsenal (but they don\u2019t get on). Changed focus in recent years from trying to be the best dressed in the office to become top dog. Came close in 2016 and looks like a similar story this year.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Chelsea:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Argues with Manchester City over which family has the most money. Had a bad first quarter but then started using the CRM (Bullhorn obviously), and will end the year as No 1!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Sunderland:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Worst performer (didn\u2019t use Bullhorn), just got fired.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>West Ham:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Mainly a resourcer. Got a shiny new desk this year (nabbed it from Spurs).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So what other teams would fit in well at the Premier League Agency?
