RVP - City linked by Ladyman and the Times (merged)

Re: Am I the only one who is...

I'm more disgusted at the thought of people being stupid enough to believe a tabloid tale that includes picking a figure of the air and trebling it
 
Re: Am I the only one who is...

I don't see the problem..... ?

Football is a sport that has been repackaged as Entertainment.

The most high profile Music Stars will earn the most money.
The most high profile actors earn the most money.

Same with Football, sure the likes of Wayne Bridge aren't the best players out there but at the time of signing his contract was high profile and thus commanded that wage packet.

I believe Sport should be sporting and thus the introduction of Salary Capping, and the abolishment of Transfer Fee's keeps the game on a level playing field, and clubs in lower leagues able to compete.

But the Hollywood Money Men run this game and they want to produce the next blockbuster, so we like lemmings all flock to the nearest Cinema to watch the likes of Shrek.... The celebrity status of players is a big section of the entertainment package created by big money men.

I'm jealous big time, I'd love £200,000 a week, wouldn't we all? but remember it's only a select few who earn this sort of money.
Many players down in the lower leagues can't even afford to pay for petrol to get to games..... Which is why Salary capping and abolishment of transfer fee's should be introduced.

How will one equate to the other? How will a salary cap in the Prem means Bob Smith at Dag & Red gets more money?

This comment surprised me:

‘I think Van Persie at this moment is one of the best strikers in Europe with (Lionel) Messi, (Cristiano) Ronaldo and with Sergio (Aguero) and Mario (Balotelli).'

Does that spell the end of Edin or is just an omission by mistake?

Funny - that one really sticks out to me too :-)

I just think starting duo of Aguero and Balotelli is set in RM's mind.

So, IMO Edin will have to either accept the 3rd striker role (that he never had in his career, so I doubt it), or look for another team...

Or me and you are just reading too much into it :-)

No it just confirms what we already know. That Edin isn't one of the top strikers in the world

Actually you are spot on there. At worst its just a slight mistake though. We all know Bobby rates Edin

That's not it though. If we're honest - right now Balotelli does not belong in the same sentence with Messi and Ronaldo...so it appears RM named two of the best in the world, then his own forwards...so not mentioning Edin is really interesting, actually.
 
RVP is a very very good player and would score goals in our (or any) team anywhere. He has the fuckin lot. 30 goals in a good (but not great) team is fantastic by any standards.

I'd offer them Dzeko, Bridge and 5m.

disgusted by the salary we are offering RVP to join our club?
disgusted by the salary 'superstars' like Tevez, Dzeko, Yaya, Silva and others already have at our club?
disgusted by the salary of pro football players in general?

Don't get me wrong, I love city with all my heart but I'd rather donate RVPs weekly wage to charity than to see so much money go to one guy who can do something with a ball and nothing more...


Pity rant over


You forgot Lecsott this time.

poor lad, his hair is messed up, ppl can't write his name properly and rag children don't want to shake his hand or give him a high 5 (inside city). I guess the millions and playing for city make up for it.
