Joe Hart (joined Torino on season long loan - Official)

[kaz7]

Not sure where all these figures come from , apparently Joe earns £150k a week and we are paying £90k of his wages to play for Torino , the positives are we will save £60k a week , and he just might develop his passing game playing in Italy , come back next season and challenge Bravo for the goalkeepers jersey . We all know the media love to make mugs out of us ,but just maybe this could turn out well for the club and the player.

£140k a week and they will pay 50k of it

My problem is that we keep overpaying our players. Hart is not a 140k/a week goalie. Our wage structure is a joke.

He's not on close to that.

City have the third highest wages in the league, not first or second. But we don't sell our best players. If we did, wages wouldn't be an issue, the problem city have is that there is little difference in basic wage between out too guys and our squad players wher as United pay Zlatan 300k per week and the likes of Shaw less than a third of that.

I'm gonna take a guess and say 50k a week for a keeper in Serie A is quite high, people need to understand wages here are crazy compared to most of Europe. Still no loan fee either makes it seem like a good deal for them, I'm surprised no better offers came in but the rumors that he was told to look for another club happened very late in the window.

Torino always seem to have pretty decent kits, other than that I don't know much about the club.

Also read from a Napoli fan account similar to City_Watch that they were interested, but Joe wanted first team action obviously.... Something they couldn't guarantee. As Pepe reina is pretty established there now... . Torino did... Of course just rumours at this stage

Fair play to Joe for having the balls to be an English player to give it a go abroad.

I could be wrong. But i remember reading that some of our staff is paid by CFG? In a way to circumvent FFP rules. That way our wage expenditure is smaller.
I bet that factored in....we have the highest wages.

The problem is his wages but he is being pushed out and is right not to lower his wages,we want him gone he only wants a years loan so we have to cough up,serves us right for forcing him out,i have no sympathy with the club i'm afraid

Read my post again. I said I had no problem re. Joe's wages. I simply have major misgivings about Torino benefitting from Joe's expertise on the cheap. They won't/can't buy him, yet they also won't pay all his wages while he's playing for them. Sorry but, for me, that's not on.

Some of our staff are paid by the CFG, it makes more sense to centralise certain things when you have a few clubs under the same umbrella. The CFG still charge MCFC for the work they do. It's just good business practice rather than a way to cheat FFP. Although that hasn't stopped our detractors from spouting their hateful shit about us cheating FFP.

I couldn't give a flying @@@@ if we had the worlds highest wage structure I don't pay it and neither do u. It's the owners choice let him deal with it.
