Alexis Sanchez

[Impeccable One]

http://www.totalsportek.com/money/footballers-with-highest-salary/

This site for example, suggests Ibrahimovic 220 Pogba 290, De Gea 200, and Lukaku 200.. and now Alexis 270.
Whereas ours is Sergio 230 Yaya 230, Silva 210k, and assume this year KDB joins that +200k bracket.

Yaya and Big nose may have taken cuts since - not too sure - and both won't be here in the summer. But this might go some way towards explaining why their wage bill is higher.

Now this is a comparison! Might show the reason why they need players to commit over the next 2 years, a lot of changes to their squad!

Out of contract in the summer:
City: Fernandinho and Toure
United: Fellaini, Young, Shaw, Carrick and Ibra

Out of contract summer 2019:
City: Mangala and Kompany
United: Valencia, Mata, Darmian, De Gea, Rojo, Herrera, Smalling, Jones, Martial.

If all that information is correct (and I’m not doubting it/you), the Scum will need very deep pockets over the next few years and with squad re-building and their pyscho manager they’ll never reach our level over a PL season.

What an obscene amount of ackers that is for a 29 year old.
Still if it means that the Rags think they`ve finally got one over us, I make that about 1 to them and approx 12 to us over the past 4-5 years.
It`ll all end in tears and not with City.
As much as we may have lost out on a great player, let him count his pennies, whilst our lads will be counting their trophies and bonuses.
Well done to the Management at City ... seriously.

So what was tolmies video all about??

Had troubles in opening article.Yes I stand corrected so around £500k per week then as opposed to £300k by us??
We all know why he and his agent did a glorious u turn

Were we even willing to pay that much? It seems like our top earners are on much closer to the lower 200s basic but with lots of bonus incentives. He's pretty much doubling his wage at the rags. Fair play to him.

I'm not going to join the 'he's shit' 'didn't want him anyway' bandwagon, but let him go and stagnate in that anti-football mob with his 1/2 mill a week before tax. He's in good company. He can waste his few remaining footballing years trophyless but at least have time to count his cash.

Oh by the way he's shit and didn't want him here anyway

What are they ever all about?

x2 for pure entertainment but the videos mean nothing serious anymore tbh

Alexis' number should be 500, since all the other quoted figures are net of tax. Makes their wage bill look even crazier!

God knows what that'll do to future contract renewals/negotiations for them

Hard to blame Sanchez. 500K a month is just stupid money and will effectively gut the rags wage structure. There's probably a way to pry Rashford or Martial off of them now.

 

[come-on-barney]

Will give them a boost in the run in no doubt about it, so we have to focus and get back to winning ways on Saturday.

Anyone still annoyed that we walked away?

Stupid money
