surely all transfer fees are compensation for loss to the selling club?

and isn't the extent of Colchester's loss dependent on how good Lambert is? The better he is the bigger the loss they've suffered?

I can see both sides too, but I don't see why future performance should apply to players' moves but not managers'. Either it is a valid factor in the final amount paid by the acquiring club or it isn't.
