Genie Posted September 2, 2022 Share Posted September 2, 2022 It’s amazing how the initial reaction is normally to fall to the floor appearing to be seriously hurt rather then “fight” back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foreveryoung Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 Not sure why they keep saying Haaland is a bargain signing, talking about it now on SSN. Yes he was 50m, but to get him for 50m he's had to be paid (which is rarely talked about) 2 million a month. Over 2 years that's another 50m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 Over £10m went to his dad didn't it? Then near double that to raiola Not sure why they're driving the bargain angle of it, just appreciate the player without talking money Or we can drag £100m for grealish in to the conversation...

Genie Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 (edited) All top players transfers have a lot of large other hidden costs too. I bet with Grealish gif example there was al kinds of other payments to agents, advisors (family) on top of the £100m. It’s normal (but a piss take) and Haalands move is no different to others.

Agents taking huge chunks of cash has been a thing for donkeys years The dad taking a bag of money seems relatively new though, neymar was the first I'd heard it Pepe to arsenal had loads of people being paid on the side, it's surprising the clubs have never tried to stand up to it as a collective, agents seem to have more power than the buying club Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Easy to see how it happens so quickly into the season when you have a look at some of the weekend's refereeing decisions. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The gap between 7th and 20th is getting to be smaller than the gap between 7th and 6th. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
