It's a disgrace and sickening. Can afford to pay him 220k a week but can't afford to pay someone who probably makes 7 or 800 quid a weekLargeAddick said:
If they had paid him just 200k pw they could have saved the jobs of most of the 65 staff they laid off. Football is fucked.DoctorCharlton said:Arsenal sign Willian on a free transfer, rumoured to be paying him £220k p/w wages.
He now joins David Luiz and Cech as another entry to the Chelsea retirement home.

Seems the 220k is a big exaggeration. It's apparently half that but he can earn more with bonuses.

Sheffield Utd agree 18.5m fee with Bournemouth for keeper Ramsdale. What does that make Pope worth? At least 30m in my opinion.0

What will happen to Henderson now?LargeAddick said:Sheffield Utd agree 18.5m fee with Bournemouth for keeper Ramsdale. What does that make Pope worth? At least 30m in my opinion.
A surprising amount of speculation around keepers at the moment, with United needing to decide on De Gea or Henderson, and Chelsea needed a new keeper as well0 -
United facing a dilemma but I’d imagine Sheff Utd been told no chance on Henderson. I reckon De Gea could be off, PSG be my guess.1

Does the Willan to Arsenal mean that Zara definitely won't be going there?0

Sky are reporting that it's Henderson's choice and he wants to stay and battle De Gea for the number 1.
Realistically though, United need to make a decision. Henderson has 2 years left on his contract, De Gea has 3, and neither are going to want to be a sub for very long.
For me United should cash in on De Gea, and keep Henderson as he's younger and English and could end up the England keeper for the next decade if he does well.4 -
Henderson has probably seen De Geas form and believes he can win the battle. It does make sense for Utd to see if Henderson is good enough before offloading De Gea. Problem being if the latter loses the battle his value will just keep decreasing.Chris_from_Sidcup said:Sky are reporting that it's Henderson's choice and he wants to stay and battle De Gea for the number 1.

Problem United have is selling De Gea, who's been very poor recently and is on big wages.0

Not exactly the same scenario, but it slightly reminds me of the conundrum Leicester City faced in the 60s, where they ended up selling Gordon Banks in 1967 to clear the way for Peter ShiltonChris_from_Sidcup said:Sky are reporting that it's Henderson's choice and he wants to stay and battle De Gea for the number 1.

If they had a sell on clause, would that apply yo themselves? Making 18m more like 10m? Would make sensericky_otto said:

Recent similar scenario was when Chelsea had the much younger Courtois returning from loan and needed to decide between him and Cech.0 -
A lot of reports about that Liverpool are on the verge of agreeing a deal for Thiago from Bayern. Immense signing if they get him.
A team that doesn't need much improving signing him is a big move.1 -
You can't stand still, teams have to constantly update the squad.0

He's a fantastic player, would be a very good signing for Liverpool even at 29.
Remember Moyes turned down the chance to sign him back in 2013 as he thought Fellaini was a better bet.1 -

Only became aware after watching a tribute documentary about Banks, as from a modern perspective it seems amazing that Leicester chose to sell him a year after WC 66 (and 3 years before the Pele save)...and that he then went to Stoke, rather than one of the top sides
But yes the Cech/Courtois situation is similar1 -
To think that they could be two CAFC's for the money they might have to pay for Sancho - and his wage alone would dwarf our total staffing costs!LargeAddick said:
said on talksport this morning that a £108m fee had been agreed with Utd paying half up-front and the rest in instalments.ForeverAddickted said:Daily Mail are claiming that Jadon Sancho has agreed a five year deal with Man Utd (£340k p/w)

Joe Hart to Spurs looks likely. 3rd choice to replace Vorm and another for the 'home grown' restriction.0

Sad that at the age of 33 he's gone down the "home grown 3rd keeper who never plays" route. Surely too young for thatstackitsteve said:Joe Hart to Spurs looks likely. 3rd choice to replace Vorm and another for the 'home grown' restriction.2 -
But he's crap compared to 4-5 years ago, his choice is 3rd choice to fulfill squad registration rules or first choice for Rotherham/Coventry etc.killerandflash said:

Ivan Toney to Brentford for 10M0

How much does this make Bonne worth, I'd say a similar amount especially as he has 1 more year on his contractdickplumb said:Ivan Toney to Brentford for 10M2 -
reportedly he is on £50,000 a week at Burnley, about £2,600,000 a year .. another example of prem wages being totally out of kilter with reality .. football, the working man's game lolstackitsteve said:Joe Hart to Spurs looks likely. 3rd choice to replace Vorm and another for the 'home grown' restriction.1
