The legacy media is saying we have offered Alexis £180K per week and he's said no. 180K a week, what a ludicrous amount of money for kicking a ball. It's actually quite disgusting and offensive. It's also a low-ball offer by the increasingly unjustifiable PL standards. So I hope the story isn't true and I hope we're planning an even more offensive and disgusting offer to put him in line with other "big" names who frankly aren't half as good as him. But if it is true then he's gone in the summer.
Familiarity is the only thing that stops me being repelled by football. Like politics or economics, if you'd never been exposed to football and were witnessing it for the first time you'd be horrified.
Für eure Sicherheit
It's an obscene amount, but I already assumed he was on about 160k already so that really isn't a significant increase
If we aren't prepared to offer him what he wants, hard to know whether you can blame Wenger for it or not I have read that he doesn't want any player to be on a higher wage than him (I don't think any player should be earning more than their manager it's counter intuitive) but sometimes when it comes to keeping your top stars it's the way it has to be.
My personal feeling is that we will reach an accommodation with Sanchez because I think he wants to stay, I don't think the same is true for Ozil though.
You get desensitised to these amounts of money but it really is obscene.
I just with the whole world would tell the players and particularly the agents to collectively sod off.
People have to switch off from the game in order for that to happen. It's a great distraction to be honest.
I really can't understand what's going on with this club. £180k is not enough of an increase if he's already on £140k. We need to pack this up if we're not going to do all that's possible to keep our star players. Wenger is the one that has to go if he's still trying to build his mini society with a small football club. We haven't got time for the socialist wage structure nonsense. Do something else with your time, old man.
Other top players might thing twice about coming if they think they can get more money elsewhere.
Definitely. Reaffirms that 'feeder/steeping stone' rep we have. We had our chance to shake that off.
Do we have that rep? Sanchez and Ozil came from Barca and Real.
We did before them.City scooped up most of our payers, then we lost Cesc and RVP. The cynic in me thinks we got Ozil because RM needed the money to buy Bale. Similarly, Barca may have needed money to buy Suarez.
Isn't that how all transfers work though? You sell players to buy players, partly.
It's been a few years since we've lost a major player, if we don't start winning big trophies soon that will change though.
