I’ve always considered myself a die hard arsenal fan who goes to many many games
But yesterday I went and watched my local 8th tier team with 130 other supporters in a local derby and it was so much more fun
The players cared the coaches cared the ball boys cared, it was a big big eye opener
I watched Whitley bay North Shields on Friday over 1400 there, 8th tier, 7£ entry 5£ burger chips and pop, great banter and canny game, also spennymoor Blyth on Monday 1400 there to, 150 from Blyth which made it quite noisy
Top man
Arsenal are a terrible team
And I bet they played their hearts out. 👍
Cool story bro
And he's only 21...imagine what his 2nd Man City contract will look like 🤯
he might not get one
He won’t be there for another contract. He’ll play for 10 clubs at this rate
English premier league is not German league. He might flop like his buddy Sancho.
He might not even be good enough. I’ve watched him play several times and he is nowhere near 500k a week level.
Werner, Sancho, buyer beware!
Simon is a legend, difficult 2 find someone who articulates their point as clear and as precise as Simon
For "their point" read agenda.
I love it when he makes Sinclair look like a dumb little uneducated boy

Media doesn’t speak about it because they aren’t winner. City’s money only gets brought up constantly because of pure jealousy
@@dxjjw so true these hypocrites r jelous
It's utterly insane listening to the fooloshness in UK Football media b/c they actually believe the Big 3 just have a birthright to win Titles & corner the market on teh Top players b/c it's the Wht Privilege Aristocrat system..... What Simon is Really angry about is that Chelsea & City had enough cash to compete for Top players & instead of having a Lightbulb moment & realizing:
"Wow if we do a Revenue Sharing system w/ a Salary cap structure where no team can spend beyond a certain amount but they ALL must pay at least a certain %%% of Revenue on Players than Players will grow richer b/c of increased competition - but thats Great b/c Owners can not hoard that money & the Best part is the Fan Experience will Grow by Levels b/c then ALL clubs can compete on equal footing & Compete for League Titles!
In other words let's grow MORE Chelsea's & City's
But the Truth is that is NOT what people like Simons & Gary Neville & many others want - they Desperately want to Return to the Rigged system where only a few clubs - the Big 3 get the top players & win League Titles - this the PL they want & the Society they want & the UK Gov & Media supports this backwards thinking 100%
And that's why the ridiculous FFP was invented - to Stop great owners from setting a New competitive standard - nope they got together & tried to figure out how to make Sure no other clubs could join Chelsea & City actually hoping FFP would cripple City & Chelsea and return the Big 3 to the Top - Not b/c they Earned it but b/c that's just the way it's supposed to be
Simon is backwards but he's in a completely backwards system & country
Yeah......🤣
It’s not just oil money that pays footballers 500K+ a week, Messi was on 1m a week at Barca, bale on 600K at Madrid, Ronaldo on 500K at ManU and If Liverpool want to keep Salah then they’re going to have to join that group
You do know that Messi, Ronaldo and Bale scored in CL finals and are multiple CL winners?
@@workinginthewell3498 This is the most stupid comment I've seen in my life!!!
@@workinginthewell3498 and Haaland just might do so as well, the others were all in late 20’s early 30’s when they were on that sort of money, this kid is only just getting started. De Gea hasn’t won anything yet he’s still on similar money, so is Arron Ramsey, what’s he ever won?
@@tylerstanger1563 he might, he might not. They were payed that money bc they are serial winners on the biggest stage. EPL is the only League were players like Maguire can make that kind of money.

Very true.
So true. How many times have we seen a player in front of goal and he tries to get ball on favorite foot and defenders close them down instantly
And they still fall over...
and?
and can't hit the target from 12 yards and it's their job, professionals, ur having a laugh
Comparing it to the wages Man Utd is paying to utter flops this is a bargain. 😎👍
Not played a game in the league yet, what’s Sancho done so far
@@benbowden7321 Got to agree mate. Look at how long it’s taking the likes of Warner, Havertz etc to adapt to the Premier League.
Warner was unstoppable in Germany but he’s just not the same player.
@@luke2371 Very true, The German League give players way too much space in behind. Werner was scoring for fun in that League with most teams playing such a high line and lets be real he is nothing more than a modern version of Theo Walcott but not as fast.
600k a week is a bargain? You twat need to come down from cloud nine.
No it fucking isnt
How does Raiola convince a player to give him 70 million from one deal... Surely Haalnd can arrange an agent to deal with City/Dortmund for a fraction of that... Something must be going on behind closed doors for Raiola to get that power.
Agreed but the clubs deal with the parasite if they stuck together then footballers would not employ him nut someond would break ranks.
I've often wondered this as well. What do football agents *do*? What's to stop Erling Haaland ringing up Manchester City and saying "Hello, I'd like to apply for a role within your company? Yes, on the playing staff as your new centre-forward. My names Erling Haaland by the way".
What do agents *DO* ffs!?
@@matthewstevens1736 he will have a contract with him ones like him are like pimps they sign them really young tie them down to big contracts he doesn't work alone his company will Hoover up the best young talent get them cars free stuff blind them then a 10 year deal with massive buy out 90% of the ones they sign won't do a thing but if you earn 70m from one more than compensates for the rest.
Hope that makes sense.
Probably started with Chairmen screwing players over in deals. So now an agent makes sure that doesn't happen and can also monitor the job market for other opportunities/leverage for the player to negotiate a deal. Also they are a go between for the relationship between the player and club I.e the player can inform a chairman that they haven't spoken to a club or instructed their agent to do so thereby giving them the best of the market and a healthy relationship with the club. Obviously Raiola's tactics are super aggressive and he isn't scared to put anybody's nose out of joint because of who is in his player portfolio.
Never liked simon but now he's growing on me, speaking facts!
Why because he only wants owners and not players making money
He's growing IN you???
Hes talking absolute nonsense as usual loving the sound of his own voice.
@@emac8381 Whats your argument?
@@Alan_Wigz Hes talking absolute nonsense as usual?
Dude is saying that half a million wages can/will only be paid by oligarchs, oil states.. lack of knowledge here by Simon as man utd is already paying Ronaldo more than half a million per week.
He didn't cost 75 million 🤡
That wage for Ronaldo would reflect the income generated back to the club through branding, marketing and shirt sales etc. Haaland sets a different precedent as new, younger (possibly) unproven talent imo
@@delboy013 in terms of generating the income back, haaland would surpass ronaldo as you said he is younger and also an upcoming superstar of the football world. He literally is one of the best strikers in the world at this tender age. You can't ignore the stats, mate.
@@ChassyD 75m is peanuts for a player like Haaland, Mr.Gravy.
@@nishchaychauhan8814 Oh yes I do not doubt his quality and potential! And I guess 'potential' is the most important aspect here in terms of generating the income. In terms of Ronaldo, he has the most instagram followers in the world I believe alongside the high profile of Man U in countries like China and and India. Haaland and Man City are still a fair bit off that kind of exposure at the present time I would say.
I'd want a hattrick every game he plays for that money..
He’d do it too
he probaly will
He'll probably get that, guy averages a goal a game nearly for Dortmund. An insane record.
And a quadruple every half time.
Get the excuses in early
The working man a salary of £25,000 per annum who works from 18 years old to 68 years old:
50 years @ £25,000 pa = £1,250,000.
The average working man will earn £1.25million over their entire working life!!
Let’s say Haaland earns £500,000 per week. He only has to get 2 and a half weeks worth of pay to earn what the average man would earn in their 50 year working career.
52 weeks @ £500,000 pw = £26,000,000
What Haaland would earn in a year would take the average man on £25,000 pa, 1,040 YEARS to earn !! 1,040 YEARS !!
My only issue with this argument is that it seems to mainly get applied to footballers. There are a lot of average CEOs out there getting paid obscene amounts. To me this is more of a societal problem and not limited to football
Exactly and it goes to Simon Jordan too he gets paid more than any teacher and dosent give up his wages
Slightly different really in terms of footballing ceos they are paid a salary but the major money comes from bonuses and balancing the books... no one would say its wrong if haaland got 100k a week but 30k every goal because he is earning the money but 500k a week and never played in any other league or team at his age
True, just to hold meetings. At least the athletes do the bulk of the work
Generally speaking though your average ceo isn't trying to fill stadiums with punters that have a passionate connection with their club of choice. Simon is bang on here, some fans didn't want the super league but some fans want these massive signings so difficult to find a balance. At the end of the day the average Joe will lose out when tickets to see these people are beyond the reach of the average fan.
I disagree......big CEO's get that salary for a reason and are sacked if they don't perform. They are not a commodity.....they are replaceable.
Love Simon's explanation at 0:55 about gross vs net income and the shade he throws at Trevor Sinclair. 😆💀
You mean when SJ believed a silly story he saw in the newspaper and the reality is the wages will be literally half of what he thought?
Trevor Sinclair - convicted racist and still works for talkSPORT, certainly don’t think he would if he were white but that’s good old wokeSPORT for ya
@@kaisersose3872 and you know this how?
I agree on pay, its insane when we have teachers getting paid less than footballers, nurses, health care workers... even soldiers who risk their lives for the country... its madness
Use that same logic for actors and singers aswell
Why? Supply and demand...nurses are overpaid for the public sector.
That’s a government issue though. It’s not on private business owners to pay those people despite their importance to society. Even if haalands wages are ludicrous.
@@simonclarke8098 Nurses are overpaid? What planet are you on?
@@jimsim8736 The state of the failed NHS, the fact it's a money pit. The NHS needs to be overhauled. In the public sector its about value to the taxpayer and the NHS doesn't provide that. Nurses, unlike doctors, are usually public sector workers. Doctors, specialists anyhow, are usually self employed contractors
Look at it this way city are getting a 150mill player for 63mill because of a clause in contract, so the 500k a week is the money that would have gone to dortmund, now goes to the player
its the principle of giving someone so young that amount of money
No .. haland would still want 500k regardless of what city pays dortmund … neymar gets paid this even after psg paid 200 mil to barca .. so your point is baseless
City haven't confirmed anything yet so all this is just pure speculation. BTW united pay Ronaldo £510k/week, where was the media outcry at this. If the deal goes through why not welcome a huge talent coming to the premier league.
@@mikeheap7978 because Ronaldo has won it all multiple times and will go down as, worst-case, the second best player of all time until somebody comes around to better his career which is unlikely. Haaland has scored many goals in leagues where defences are poor. £510k a week for a living legend vs £500k a week for a 21 year old. Neither salary is healthy for the game however. Cleaning very dirty money on City’s end I would imagine.
@@mikeheap7978 I honestly don't care how much anyone gets payed it ain't my money 😂😂
He'll be like Ibrahimovic in terms of career trajectory especially with Raiola pulling the strings. Once he's bored at City, he'll throw the toys out of the pram and move to another SUPER club i.e. Real Madrid, PSG etc.
Yep plus Pep Guardiola fall out with Zlatan. This is gonna be 2.0
Zlatan is the ultimate journeyman
Haaland is on a different level to zlatan. How will be bored scoring 40 to 50 goals a season
You mean he will finally go to a SUPER club I.e Real Madrid etc
@@samwize28 he'll never want to go to Manchester United that's for sure .

Honestly there’s literally nothing he said here that I disagree with.
From ridiculously high salaries, agents getting even more insane amounts of money, oil/oligarch doped clubs, ManC still won’t go to a level that’ll separate them from at least Liverpool that much. Eventually (hopefully) United & Arsenal get their crap together & we’ll have City, Liverpool, Chelsea, United, Arsenal & THS competing for top spots. Also Newcastle is coming too.
Literally agree with everything he said here.
Isn't his salary almost the same as Ronadlo's?
It is but he get 40 goals a season easy. His built for the prem and City will be pretty much unstoppable. Liverpool are amazing team and my favourite out of the two but the amount chances City had in fa cup smei Haaland is getting a brace at least.
With that logic, lukaku, werner and Sancho should be amazing just because they played brilliantly in minor leagues
Only got 25 in farmers league, no chance he's getting 40 in prem.
@@voodoochile333 never ever put Lukaku, Werner and Sancho in the same convo as haaland
@@tomcolton5662 he might not get 40 in the prem, but he will easily get 40-50 in all comps
@Tyrone Williams I agree but his states don't. Only Brazilian Ronaldo has scored more at the age of 21 the Haaland has. Get him the right team he be highest goal scorer ever.
£25m per year and 60m transfer fee is a bargain for a player of Haalands standard.
He is a £150m pound player.
And after 4 years you could very likely make transfer profit on him if he leaves.
Its a no brainer, wish Liverpool were in for him
good one when players like sancho and pogba picking up 375k per week it isn't a problem, when elites like haaland, salah demands it is a problem, this is a bargain if city isn't paying much to raiola
Simon soon changed his tune last week he was slating a caller for saying about what united players are getting paid mega wages but not putting the effort in hypocritical
All this money per week is relative to the time, remember 20 years ago when Sol Campbell was put on 100k a week. Obscene amount of money then, just as footballers of today are on obscene money now. No different to how it was 10/20/30 years ago
Every decade has it's highest paid players. The highest football transfer ever is for Alan Shearer(Adjusted for inflation, the number would be around £222 million). England has always been paying the highest salaries as well.
TIFO FOOTBALL has done a video about the highest ever transfers, I think it was released yesterday.
The best stuff I have heard from Simon. Well said and well done!
If I was a footballer rhiola would definitely be my agent 😂 he gets to the bag!!!!!
Mannnn that's what I'm saying
The one concern with Haaland is his fitness. For such a young guy he’s missed significant time with injuries in the past few seasons.
If anyone can afford that risk it’s City lol.

These clubs are making a lot of money. So they have to pay the players. Shirt sales and revenue from that player signing for City is worth every penny.

@@polaris7122 Yeah. But adidas gave them millions.
@@josephclarke6960 yes but the fans still believe that they get serious money for selling a shirt.
@@polaris7122 Yes they do. Thats why they change shirts every year. From Adidas and shirt sponsors. They make hundreds of millions each season.
@@josephclarke6960 they make £5 per shirt, the rest goes to the sponsors. The sposorship deal has already been agreed i.e. 47million per season for 5 years, totally seperate from shirt sales.
The problem is not players getting paid, it is the owners that enable these types of salaries. The reality is that most players are actually worth quite a bit more to their clubs than they are paid when you account for performance, brand promotion, etc. in America many “average” basketball players have salaries well over $20 million per year. The core issue is that the lack of a salary “cap” or limit on individual players is that star players get paid incredible amounts of money while other players receive less than their fair share.
Huge money. One week of that and my life would be sorted for ever!!
Anyway he is a superb player and let's hope it works out for him. Injury is a worry though.

At the start of the year, norwich were critised for being a yoyo team and reaping the benefits. I doubt our whole squad comes to 500k a week, let alone single players. The difference our club run within its means but we pay the price for not being able to compete financially with the likes of Man City, United etc.
The working man a salary of £25,000 per annum who works from 18 years old to 68 years old:

Let’s say Haaland earns £500,000 per week. He only has to get 2 and a half weeks worth of pay to earn what the average man would earn in their 50 year working career.
52 weeks @ £500,000 pw = £26,000,000

@@doncourts No it isn't, this is a blatant nostalgia bias
Thank you Simon. The best commentary of the situation in the mainstream media. I (a Liverpool supporter) have fallen out of love with the game in a large part to players belief of how much they deserve to be paid. I was happy for Winjaldum to go, I will be happy for Salah to go. They have lost touch with their supporters.
💯 ..
People like you are a disgrace to football who do not understand anything about the sport. Salah deserves the money he’d potentially be getting, not only that but if he doesn’t get paid what he deserves he has a right to leave. Why should Salah settle for a low amount because one fan wants him to? And to say you will be happy to see him go proves you are a fake Liverpool fan who does not care for his club.
you realize players are getting paid more because clubs are generating more money through tv deals? if it doesn’t go to the employees it’ll just go to the billionaires
So you’d rather the money goes to the guys in suits rather than the people who make the game enjoyable
I don’t hold anything against the players. Most are working class, in the case of salah, he came from poverty! Market value states that Haaland is worth 500k, so that’s what he gets. The only way to stop this, is to not attend football games and to not buy products associated with football.
All I'm gonna say is that we should wait to see how Haaland adapts to City and the prem. I remember everyone saying how Lukaku was gonna tear up the league and look what happened
Solid point
We knew about Lukaku was from the first time ..
Chelsea more money than sense
He did tear it up at Everton. Just not at United or Chelsea
@@robertmusson7307 he didn't tear ir at Everton, he did good, but we know what happened after that
Lukaku on his last legs, he can't make runs like he used to, all he is is really big. Haaland on the other hand is a monster and a speed demon. And could even score a header if you hang it up jn the box
If Haaland stays at city for the same amount of time as Aguero, he'll absolutely decimate his record, he's an absolute animal and he'll rip the premier League a new one
On paper he will. What if he is constantly injured? Or does a lukaku and doesn’t adapt to the league? Or decides I’ve made my money now I can take my foot off the gas. Nothing is guaranteed. Although if I were a city fan I would be feeling excited at the prospect.
@@mattswinnerton9892 lukaku was never that great tho was he

There's been a few strikers signed from the Bundesliga for big money recently, Haller, Werner, Havertz and Sancho, and none of them have made much of an impact on the league.
There's no guarantees that Haaland will be any different.
Simon spot on especially about that last bit
Haaland is definitely not bang average and will bang 40-50 goals for Man City a season easy. Worth every penny. And as for the politics, it doesn't matter. A lot of teams have had era's where they've dominated financially and as a result reflected on the pitch. We just complaining about every nowadays

Yes and no. All depends on his performance in epl and if he can stop getting injured.

I’m not going to complain about millionaires taking money off billionaires. No wonder Simon hates it 🤣🤣🤣
Exactly. It's not the amount of money he hates but the type of people receiving it. He sees footballers as "workers" and like all capitalists he has a natural instinct to stamp out the bargaining power of workers.
Actually, the salary paid impacts you more than a billionaire who can happily afford it. You should complain because it will be you and other fans contributing towards it.
@@NosyFella in the grand scheme of things it's killing football. Buying leagues is not good for the game, smaller clubs can no longer afford to pay the wages players want and thus the gulf in quality between the top and bottom teams of the league only grows.
@@allyofficial4547 of course it is killing the game but that's the market, that's capitalism. Simon Jordan loves capitalism but cries about this?
Why? Because it's not "organic growth" hahah
@@allyofficial4547 premier league will become the super league over time. Blame Chelsea with Roman, they killed the premier league
Simon is right however I am more concerned that a young man is able to secure such a large weekly salary although having not won anything, plus he is not proven in the EPL. It almost sets him up for failure if he is anything less than spectacular- I wouldn't want to burden a young mind so early on and not forgetting what the English media is like. Simon also mentioned food banks etc. that I think has a lot to play in and out of football if for example people become destitue with rising fuel, energy and food it is almost a prelude for a civilisation before imminent destruction happens. My two cents.
He deserves every penny. 82 goals in 85 games..he's gonna destroy the prem
Rich envy is probably the worst thing you can do, if everybody cancelled their sky sports subscription and gave the money to those in need instead there would be no need for food banks
With Pep he can't fail. Only injuries will stop him
@@TheGeneral_LUFC in bundesliga that's a big difference then epl, like others have stated he has never won anything. Anything less then 20 epl goals a season will be seen as a huge waste of money, thats alot of pressure for someone his age. Hopefully he does well though, alot of big names have transferred to the epl recently and havnt done nearly as well as they were.
@@junioradult6219 he hasn't got the calibre of team he would have at city. Yeah it could go t*ts up but I think he do well
where was this outrage when Chelsea bought 100M lukaku after winning the cl and united making Ronaldo the highest paid player in the epl in one tranfer window?
The cost of the player is not comparable to the amount they earn each week in wages. That impacts so much more.
Ummmm there was outrage ..
Did you not listen to what he said ffs
He clearly says Man City not alone in this
Mentioning spurs , Chelsea, man utd and probably Newcastle in the future
I agree, it is unbelievable, it is also obscene in my view. Particulalry when you look around you at what 'normal' people are having to contend with. How on earth fans can still afford to go to grounds week in, week out. But, it is a business, how can you stop it? I don't know enough about this to offer up solutions but you do Simon, what is your solution?
How far does that line of thinking want to go hundreds of unused rooms in Buckingham palace will army veterans sleep on the streets half a mile away
I'm on he fence if he'll even suit the premiership, Spain or Italy he'd destroy I see him as better version of Lukaku and he was great in Italy and is a average striker in the premiership.
Remember Timo Werner was goal machine before coming to Chelsea so I think it's a risk for city but with there money it's a risk worth taking as it won't hurt them if he fails
Haaland has more goals than games in ucl and he plays for dortmund and salzburg
Lukaku has over 100 PL goals, and there’s nothing special about England, get off your high horse.
Mr anti city simon Jordon who also seems to be a Chelsea fan commenting on city getting haaland
I’m sure if Liverpool, United, Chelsea did the same they’d be no issues. The cartel bias is stupid.
No they hate chelsea just as much. LOL replace us with Arsenal.
Because financial fair play isn’t applied on Citeh.
@@sg_hokkien_opera it is we just spend our money wisely unlike the OT bunch
he's forgetting that there are over 10k Pro Footballers, only 400-500 in the Prem, so being average in the Prem is a very high level, also the average yearly wage is nowhere near 10m yet, it's around 3.5m.
Also Oligarchy isn't something exlusive to Russia, there are also Oligarchs in the West. That's a prime example of Framing.
Don’t drag Chelsea into a PSG and Man City wage argument, Chelsea are nowhere near offering 500k a week
Yes but they started all of this
@@bryanfarnet2037 that’s not true, Blackburn started it. Chelsea perfected it
yep, 10 million a year for an average player is absolutely scandalous. These football agents are ruining football and they need to do something before it gets out of hand.
it is already out of hand players and there agents have all the power
Haaland average? 🤣🤣
And imagine people have the guts to criticize Salah because he wants Liverpool to pay him more based on his actual worth/performance!!
don't know why anyone is surprised, guardiola can't do it anywhere unless he has all the money/players at this disposal. exactly the reason why KLOPP is the greatest coach there ever was.
Fc barcelona
@@eugeneibeh7638 yes exactly..all the best players in the world, Messi?
He’s literally won leagues with no striker for years. Klopp has won one title infront of no fans. Levels in the game.
JM walks in the room
@@alexbelotti1603 spending all that money and still no ucl for city? Levelsss
If they pay 500,000 a week to every player in the Squad or near, City will keep winning
If they pay just a few players Huge money the rest of the players will not be at the best
Its the same in all walks of life , if the gap is created to big then resentment comes in
The working man a salary of £25,000 per annum who works from 18 years old to 68 years old:
50 years @ £25,000 pa = £1,250,000.
The average working man will earn £1.25million over their entire working life!!
Let’s say Haaland earns £500,000 per week. He only has to get 2 and a half weeks worth of pay to earn what the average man would earn in their 50 year working career.
52 weeks @ £500,000 pw = £26,000,000
What Haaland would earn in a year would take the average man on £25,000 pa, 1,040 YEARS to earn !! 1,040 YEARS !!
United have the biggest wage bill in the Premier League. Spending money isn't a guarantee of success
the more i listen to Simon the more i respect hes opinion
100% agree. Where does it stop?
Amazing the amount of cash Dortmund generate through transfers to the premier league. Aubameyang, Sancho, Haaland to name just 3..
Simon mentioning Chelsea as if we have a higher wage bill than Man United. I don't like it
This man is going to be top scorer season after season wat a signing for city
Maybe, but my no means guaranteed. Could very well turn out to be a massive flop.
Brilliant analysis Mr. Jordan
The Premier League era began in 92/93 exactly 30 years ago. John Barnes was the highest paid player 10k per week, 520k per year. Gareth bale on his return to Tottenham was the highest with over 500k per week, thats more than 26 million per year.
Insane!
Simon is Spot on again. This statement is beginning to sound like a Slogan.
Blame agents, not clubs. Raiola particularly is too greedy.
As a Leeds fan, I'm glad he will join Man City 😊 instead of these other lot in Chelsea or Man United, they would have been a waste of his talent, Lukaku was money well spent though 😂
Well spent if you hate Chelsea
Leeds 🤣
Grealish not wasted then ?
Absolutely spot on !
He forgot Man United, Liverpool. Bayern, Real Madrid, Barcalona. Only teams he mentioned are the ones owned by middle eastern owners
Failed to mention Manure salaries 🤣. I'm sure the Glazers bought Manure out of love. Sanchez was on 500k, failed to mention that 🤣. City aren't the first club to offer 500k 🤣
Why wasn't this said when UTD broke the 50K a week mark on Roy Keene I know cause it wasn't City....
I completely agree with Simon...there have to be some sort of strict controls on wages.
Why is Simon acting like being a professional footballer is a normal job😂 anybody complaining is comparing themselves to footballers
Around 25 million a season is not that bad for a player like Haaland and what He brings to the Premier League. NBA and NFL players are making 40 million dollars a season. If the players don't get this money the owners do. Simon is a the old man screaming at the sky. The only thing I agree with him about is the Agents fees. Agents fees started getting completely out of control in US sports but rules were put in place to not allow Agents to run wild. European Football needs to do the same thing.
It is not sustainable my friend. It will implode eventually and destroy the sport !
Very few of them, isn't there around a 100 mill cap for most sports teams in the usa. Isnt city like over a billion dollars
Call me mad but I just don’t think halaands style suits Man City. They play well with a small creative player up top, aguero, Jesus, when they have false 9…
Pep will change him
It's the best league that money can buy! I like how TV pundits always play along with the idea that it's tough at the top for managers.
Well said, Simon.
The working class are struggling so much ,but it's disgusting to be honest ,the whole premiship is wrong.
Simon always want to push the agenda of only certain 'non organic' clubs pay high amount of money which is bs. Man United, Barcelona, Madrid have all paid players insane amounts of moneys recently.
Spot on today Simon
Have city done it to upset the Liverpool structure with wages? Salah will want 1million a week now after tax 😂
City haven't had a proper starting striker for a while now since Sergio was also struggling with fitness and thus featured less and less until he left the club.
I understand the exorbitant amount of money but that's just how it is today. It's obscene but what else can you do. 🤷🏽♂️
its not just how it is though? Who is doing that in all fairness? State run clubs. There should be no state owned clubs in the PL, if you want sporting integrity and fairness of competition. Manchester is a working class city, with a lot of poverty, and kids going hungry reflecting on the fantastic work of Marcus Rashford. Yet the same working class cities sees a player getting paid 1/2 million per week. appalling
"ignore it and look the other way"
If it's obscene then just don't pay it. We act like it's Haaland or no one
City haven't confirmed anything yet so all this is just pure speculation. BTW united pay Ronaldo £510k/week, where was the media outcry at this. If the deal goes through why not welcome a huge talent coming to the premier league.
Liverpool are good but you don't need to spend 500k a week just to beat them, because that's literally what it is. Fair play to them, they can get away with throwing money at everything and hope that they can finally win the CL but no one else needs to send that so I wouldn't say its how things are. There's only really City, PSG and United who do things like that but United, although laughably awful are nonetheless a massive club and do at least earn their way but asude from them it really isn't normal, not when Salah and Mane and stuff for example on like 200k or whatever they're on
Simon really resorting to tabloid journo tactics here. Commenting on a salacious bs article from last week and not the one he was asked about where his wages are supposedly 500k
Thousands of business owners take home 2 million a month... why shouldn't one of the best player in world for the most watched sport earn it. Weirdly placed anger
Because he's a footballer. An entertainer. We don't need footballers as much as we love them.
I don't mind the huge sale fees for players as thats just an exchange of assets that can be used within the clubs, and this can help smaller teams revigorate their squads. But the absolutely absurd wages players are paid now are crazy. Footballers themselves are going to end football as the level of money is just unsustainable (hence super league fiasco). UEFA and FIFA need to instill salary caps to try to rebalance the game. Should be also regs on agent and 3rd party involvement.
Completely agree with the divergent nature of club ownership and the inflationary effects of expectations due to these crazy high wages.
Exactly Simon you dont really KNOW what money he will be on if he comes. Funny how wages and fees are only taken into account on City transfers and the red media never mention it over in the deals in Salford. As for managers constantly complaining about fixtures step forward Herr Klopp.
The end of football
I agree 100% with Simon; players who can only take/kick a ball with one foot getting obscene salaries.
When I was growing up in Knightswood I would spend hours hutting the ball against the lockup walls alternating from one foot to another. I never made it but I could provably give s few numpties a run for their money
The big question is surely , why hasn’t there yet been a serious push towards wage capping . I agree the wages they get is completely obscene , has been for a long time . What laws exit to prevent it ? .
Never and I mean never should any of wages ever be capped in the private sector
Who cares if they get these crazy salaries the clubs and the owner are making way more than that, it’s only right that the players also get paid what they deserve for what the being in to these clubs
i think that wages have become so high that implementing a wage cap would be too detrimental for the top teams an would do nothing for the bottom teams. I’m not saying the top teams should have all power but a wage cap would basically wipe more than half of teams like Chelsea, City, Utd. For example, I think Zaha at Palace is their highest earner in the clubs history at approx. 150k a week whilst Hudson-Odoi is on about 110k. If a wage structure were to be implemented, maybe it could involve having a limited amount of players over “x” amount of wages net?
Very clever from City. Salah wants to be the leagues highest paid player other wise he leaves so city screw Liverpool by doing this. Very cute city.
Salah needs Liverpool more than they need him. He won't get more than what they are offering.
@@drive9912 PSG, Madrid will pay
Simon on his anti city agenda yet again. Fails to mention Ronaldo is on 480k per week for a 37 year old. Also Salah wants 400k per week so if you want the best players in the world you have to pay top dollar for them, simples
Because clubs like man United and liverpool attract players off their names alone , city can only get him because they offer him so much!
Real Madrid and Barcelona aren’t prepared to pay his demands
Salah isn't getting that he will be sold with that request! Ronaldo on 480 is insane 😂 only Manchester
except Salah and Cristiano are established performers and proven winners. Haaland is still a prospect and untested in the Epl.
Comparing Ronaldo at 37 (480k) to Haaland at 21 (500k) isn't an argument and one that misses the point.
It's not an agenda it's the small club mentality of some city fans
He doesn't agree Salah should be on 400k.
He's been against the insane wages for years now.
Calm the victimhood
Simon's spot on about mad footballer's wages, I've just seen the new Gazza documentary, he was on 4 grand a week at Spurs, he was a genuine world class player, most of today's bog average players are on 100 grand a week, I don't blame the players, why would you not accept these wages, I blame the greedy agents and the clubs dumb enough to pay it.
Simon is right about superstar salaries pulling up average player's salaries. That was the problem with the NHL and why they had to turn to a cap/floor system. That is why the NBA have designated "max-deals." That is why the NFL don't have fully guaranteed contracts for a sizeable proportion of their players. But these are all "closed-shop" leagues.
Superstars are good for a league's business. Bloated contracts for average players, who by definition make up over 60% of the players, kills a league. This is why some changes have to eventually happen, but with leagues competing with each other, it will be tough. Football is headed down a bad path.
Who cares if they get these crazy salaries the clubs and the owner are making way more than that, it’s only right that the players also get paid what they deserve for what the being in to these clubs
the league is fixed.. certain teams are where they are now because of prior FFP but now the gap is to big and teams like city can do what they want and pay what they want...then other teams spend nowhere near these teams prior ffp and now getting accused of breaking ffp its crap... Even VAR is fixed for the so called big 6 who was going to leave the league
Definitely they are never allowing a Leicester scenario to happen again! VAR bought in to manipulate matches best they can
When you can sponsor your own team for 300m you dont need to worry about FFP

Just a sick amount of money. I am struggling every day to keep the power on in my house and this fella is on this amount. Oh dear , ambulance please
Why do footballers walk around like they are depressed af when they get paid these amounts? Makes me think of the nurses who work tiring 12 hour shifts five/ six days a week and get no rewards.
More money More problems
@@michaeljohnson-thiman4975 I can see the problem with fan attention and never being able to show yourself in public without being harassed but what else?
