I think that is true to an extent but it is nowhere near the same as someone at the same club earning 400k. There are already players at united earning far more as a basic wage than City players currently but we have still been able to keep our wage structure the way we want it and use performance bonuses rather than offer basic wages as high as united's.What we pay our players doesn't make a difference to the agent.
If KDBs agent knows what Sanchez can earn whilst in the PL, he will still demand similar. Also, it's more about the financial package a player receives rather than what they earn per week. You can bet your last pound that when all money is factored in, signing fee, bonuses etc, that KDB will be much closer to £400,000 a week than what he is reportedly currently earning. As will most of our top earners.
Hahahahahah 400k wage for a 29 years old.
35 Million for the transfer
10 Million for agents Fees
400K wage
+ destroying the whole wage structure and make people like de bruyne and aguero rage and also want 400k
U have to be insanely stupid to do this tranfer
So in the summer when Pep wants another forward. if we want anyone with Sanchez quality or potential. What will that cost us? 100m+?
There would have been nothing to match if this was all done before the rags decided to try their luck. And of course he would ask us to match the offer once he received a better one. It's his job, he does this for money. He doesn't owe us anything, he already waited 6 months for us only to see us draw a line in the sand over the fee.
Someone fill me in. Are we deffo not getting him now.
City are clearly operate within budgets. The highest price we have ever paid is £54M for KDB. We have not so far paid stupid figures like the Pogba £90M. We do not throw money away. We decide what someone is worth based on age and salary and that is it. I see some are saying we should have signed VVD and Sanchez in the summer. Wasn't it the case that because we thought we were signing Sanchez we didn't have the budget to buy another centre-back or full back which was originally intended (we had of course already bought several other players).
After the Alves debacle, where we let the world's best right-back slip through our fingers, I regularly question what they do.
Dey do dat do don't dey?Yes but at least Liverpool will light some candles!
The sort of blue who has an opinion but gets pissed off by the pack of dogs who can't accept that. I never said I would enjoy saying I told you so but it is tempting to when people have been such dicks over it beforehand.
where were you when we have been breaking every record going? feck off as they say on your true homeThe sort of blue who has an opinion but gets pissed off by the pack of dogs who can't accept that.

CarefulIf he does sign for United, we can dress it up all we like by saying, too old, too expensive, no ambition etc but the fact is, Pep wanted him, he'd improve our squad, he's premiership proven and we need someone up front.
This is possibly the second time in 8 months that we seem to have relied on the fact that they have wanted to play for Pep but gone elsewhere
We've really missed Alves though...We are top of the league unbeaten 15 points clear and im more than happy with Walker
52 weeks in a year not 48. I hope you factored that in.400k a week....1.2mil a month x 12 = 14+ mill x 3....40+ mil mate......(not 63mil) ;)
EDIT: 4 weeks in a month...not 3! ;) You right bud! lol!
Going to be fun on here this afternoon when we get served our annual Anfield drubbing :D
That was a joke
