Poor Mihkitaryan
On the other hand, their season is 6 months long, 7.5 months if they go to the finals, while an EPL season is 9 months, stretching to 9.5 if they make a European final.There are mediocre NBA players who earn 14 million a year... granted they play more games and there are less players per team... but it seems that the elite EPL players are only finally earning what they probably should have been earning, rather than being overpaid. LeBron James earns 31 million in basketball, Clayton Kershaw earns 33 million in baseball, Tom Brady earns 21 million playing American football. Granted, America is a larger market... but if you take into account Champions league... international popularity and the huge worldwide audience along with the EU population alone... 14 million seems pretty reasonable for the top players in the top 5 football leagues.
The other aspect though is their top players will now have a new benchmark to go after. Imagine Harry Kane's agent at his next contract discussion.Negative PR for United. If Sanchez fails, that gives them another reason to go after United and Mourinho.
I wouldn't matter, it doesn't suit their narrative. They often over report fees like this, it's not uncommon for them to add transfer + Wages when it's a number that grabs the attention, I'm pretty sure they reported the Neymar deal as a £500mil transfer more than once.Can someone calculate Pep's summer spending in the same way the press are doing for Sanchez - fee + salary + agent fee + every last detail and tweet it to all these journos spewing inaccurate figures. It literally must be billions spent in one transfer window
And in City's case, it's their only hope at saving any face after spending months with the romantic "being re-united with Pep" card being played only to get rejected for similar wages.Moral high ground.

That's brilliant.
This press Fake news fest is going year after year. Always the sameThey should be jailed for spouting as much shit as they are.
Can't believe these idiots are getting paid for lying through their teeth.
Who gives a bollox about who breaks the story. Unless there is someone handing out cash or medals for the person it matters not a jotAbout right, considering how many people will give their favorite credit for breaking a transfer story while 10 other people give credit to their own favorite. None of them being able to prove that their favorite actually was the first to break a transfer story. People confuse someplace being the first place they heard about it as being the same as "breaking the story"

He's got 172 posts in that thread - 15 today mostly going on about how Sanchez is greedy and we're the only club in the world who'd pay his exorbitant wages with City, Bayern and PSG having the moral sense not to take the deal.
That's a very fair point.The other aspect though is their top players will now have a new benchmark to go after. Imagine Harry Kane's agent at his next contract discussion.
Not attentional to be fair. I am just a muppet like the rest of you. Some guys on here is salty as feck.It ended with loads of people reacting as expected.
Pretty much everybody in the game now recognises that Pogba was pretty good value at that price... apart from this deluded tool.You've got a reply from a fan on bluemoon:

As a Lakers and United fan... I find it absurd that Jordan Clarkson and KCP get paid more than someone of Alexis's quality. He should get paid 500k per week if you go by international standards for other sports. If the players are getting less... it means the money's only going into the pockets of the owners who are already getting enough going by the enormous valuations of the teams.On the other hand, their season is 6 months long, 7.5 months if they go to the finals, while an EPL season is 9 months, stretching to 9.5 if they make a European final.
But I agree with your point when comparing it to American sports. Messi and Neymar (maybe Ronaldo?) are in that LeBron/Kershaw range. But that next tier of player just below the very top seem to be paid less in football than American sports.
Yeah, I'm sure they've embargoed important news regarding this transfer.Wait till the 5pm (EST - 10pm UK time) press deadline for the big news of the day.

Anyone got a link to the video of DT saying he'll drink bleach if Sanchez comes to us please?
They only have 10 posts per page as they're incapable of reading more than that on one page (we have 40). Sanchez thread is something like their 2nd most posted thread in their history whereas it would barely make the top 10 here.That's page 4327!!! What the actual feck?
