Dante_Lockhart Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 4.5k p/w seems more likely. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't for a second believe Keinan Davis is on £45k a week though. Wes, maybe, I wouldnt have thought so either but he'll be paid more than Davis for sure considering he was our record signing at the time. Also not convinced on Traore pushing £80k a week considering he was on the bench in Ligue 1 before coming to us. He'll be in around £50-60k imo Ings will absolutely be on more than Martinez - who had had one good half season and was 2nd choice at Arsenal when we signed him (rightly or wrongly) compared to Ings who was largely expected to go to a CL club this summer and one of the league's top scorers.

Not that nonsense. Konsa was on 8k/wk before he signed his new deal. So the figures might be out of date but accurate for that contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was highly sought after and wasn't going to come to us without a large boost in salary. Martinez was a second choice goalie playing no first team games in years, so that also seems about right. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Traore I don't think was signed to be a bench warmer in Ligue 1 even if he was warming the bench by the time we purchased him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I can see Davis earning that much as well. He seems to be rather highly rated for whatever reason and the plan was probably for him to have played a decent part last season if not push on into becoming a full starter if he was good enough. Unfortunately for him, Watkins never getting injured or needing to be subbed meant he never got much game time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vive_La_Villa Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 I think some of these are bullshit but Ings is probably our highest paid player. He is a high profile signing. The more successful we get the more players we will have that have salaries close to the 100k mark and more. Hopefully success and revenue increases come with it as it’s slippery slope as we’ve seen in the past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VBM Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 9. Emiliano Martinez, £47,000 a week 10. Keinan Davis, £45,000 a week One of the very best goal keepers in world football, signed for £20m is on £2k per week more than lets just say not one of the best strikers at the club, signed from Biggleswade? I'll file this list under crazy bull shit that I see on the interweb. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aston_Villan4 Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 (edited) Here’s another one. Shows Konsa at £72k p/wk.
