Chairman Mao Posted January 18, 2018 Report Share Posted January 18, 2018 Hargreaves Lansdown have risen 4.45% today on the FTSE 100 and now have a market cap of over £9 billion. Maybe Steve (who is currently valued at $2.7bn) could take advantage of a good days work and put in a bid for Sanchez Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reported £400,000 a week, so has risen more than SL's stake in HL in % terms. Sanchez is a good player, but £20m + pa is completely bonkers and probably exceeds our total player wage budget!!!. Also read somewhere that if Man U sign him then part of the deal is that they will have to pay his agent £10m, making the agent worth as much as Flinty! Agents = a scourge on the game.

Tbf football is just catching up to the type of money players get in american sports. Football already has a bigger global fanbase than most of those sports. Imo, football is just realising how much money they can make. The players of course want their piece of it all. Whether you think it is good or bad I don’t think wages will be getting lower anytime soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Utterly bonkers, however... isn’t he out of contract in the summer, meaning the transfer fee will be massively reduced, compared to if he had 3 years left on it..? I don’t know the figures, but in theory if his contracted market value would be say £60million these days and Manchester are getting him for half of his actual value, then that usually results in the agent getting their client astronomical wages. Agents are scum (mostly) but the real scourge on football was that tosser, Bosman, who went and gave the players (and their agents) all the power.

Don’t get me wrong the money in the game is stupid but if you were offered or asked you your boss for 400k a week and they said yeah you would be equally as stupid as the money in the game to turn it down. As players have said it’s a job and they (like us) want to earn as much as they can and I think that’s what people forget Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anytime Manchester sign a Star player, even on absurd money, I bet they pretty much cover the cost with worldwide shirt sales and merchandising. Thats football folks.
