But you're right, 100k is silly money.
judas hadnt earned it
FootballFan, post that list of trophies again
I'd say around 80k would be okay. Think Chicha, Young, Jones(?) and Nani are on a similar amount.

I actually didn't even bat an eye-lid at the wage.
Weird but just doesn't seem like much at all anymore. With the way finances are at the top clubs a £100k wage is pretty standard now it seems.
Welbeck and Tom are on 60-80k.
At our club, Thiago's good for the 100.

Reports vary between 80-120k.

At our club, Thiago's good for the 100.
And Thiago hasn't earned the right to be on 6 figures but here we are. We should've given it to him say after he played x number of games where his contract would've automatically upped his wage to that level from something more modest.
Welbeck is on that? fml.

In the end I think we offered Pogba more than he is on at Juve to stay.
But it was too late obv.

Yep.
You have to think about the economics of it. Don't wanna go all finance on yo asses but our wage bill is still 20%-30% lower than it is at our rivals City/Chelsea. Now you might argue that's because our players aren't as good...but then that will be why when we sign Thiago we give him £100k/week. Remember Hazard last season, he is reportedly on much more with a hefty agents and signing on fee to boot.
Then you have to think about the increased wealth. In the last 12 months alone United have signed/benefited from deals which means our income goes up some £150m over the next year. The players know that and they will demand a cut of it. I expect wages across the board to go up quite a bit this year as all PL clubs get alot richer.
Finally...we're paying below the market value here. Thiago would normally never be sold for £15m. He knows that, he'll want a nice cut of the money.
But yes - it is alot to pay.

I get the economics of it. I wouldn't care if we were raking in huge profits every year, Welbeck on that wage is criminal. Cleverly too tbh.
He'll take his Zenith Data Solutions Cup runners up medal and be happy with it.
All this talk about wages depresses me. Le Tiss biggest ever deal was £4200 a week.
CL tops PL no?

Out of interest (and OT lol) has there ever been a player who has moved from Man Utd to Liverpool and vice versa?
winning a fluke cup that you cant even qualify for anymore cant cover up never winning your own country's league
forget giggs, scholes, beckham, even fat frank and Terry got 3 each

I think it happened in the 60s with someone called David or something, never happened since though

Bebe is done with United.
Moyes better bring Januzaj to pre season. It's too bad Kakitani won't be with Cerezo during the Japan tour.

I'd jokingly say Steven Gerrard to Man Utd but sometimes I value being alive.
Most recently I can remember them wanting Heinze.

I'll never quite understand what legal ground you had for blocking that move. Not that I wanted the twat anyway, he was already pretty rubbish by that point and only got worse from there/
Not since like 1960 summat...Phil or Bill something did. Mc something? I may be mad, but I think that is right.
Ain't gonna happen anytime soon either.
not being sold to a rival clause and #WeDoWhatWeWant
Why would a club have to legally accept a transfer bid?

NO Bebe pls
Where's Kakitani moving to? Germany?
No, he'll be competing in the East Asian Cup for Japan.

Wasn't it a release clause?
Nope, as we sold him to Madrid for £8m.

Hmm. I'm sure I remember there being a lot of mud-slinging at the time about him having some term in his contract that supposedly allowed him to join us whether you agreed with it or not.
edit: Seems Heinze claimed that Ferguson had promised he could leave in the summer without stupulations, while Man Utd claimed, with the paperwork to prove it, that the release clause applied to foreign teams only or some jazz like that

I have retired from Believe FC PC. I am now moving to either 360/PS3 cause fuck the PC cunts
Yeah he was allowed to go abroad or to a team that wasn't a potential rival for the title.

Jay Bothroyd been released?
Sign him up Parky!
Reckon he will end up back at Cardiff? He was pretty sharp when he was there before, just had a couple of rubbish years. Remember he played for England? Man we are poor upfront.
That was when we were trying out any old striker who'd had a decent month during the season if I recall.

Ah, I was looking forward to seeing him against United
Looks a good player from some of the clips you've posted.
