Lingard new contract

Page 4 of 10

I don't mind Lingard as a squad player. But £100k is criminal.

Does not surprise me with this club, though. So facking reckless with their cash.

Majority of squads in the premier league less than 100k

No one in there right mind is sat thinking £100k a week is the right wage for him.... 1) It might not be true... 2) it's not his fault.

Squirting misery ink and making up that he was on a par with the likes of Martial and Mkhi against WBA is pointless though.

UTD are mad with the cash... As Rosso pointed out... He'd be getting paid 1/3rd of what Poglet gets. That's football... That';s UTD

£100,000 a week for Lingard. Talk about inflation of money.

But we are united so let's compare with other big clubs

Just at City...

Bony plus Mangala on £100k per week
Delph on £90k

At least Lingard scores important goals and has added to us rather than them

Depends whose squad they're in. Sadly ours are earning as much as most premier league club's top earners.

It's why we keep struggling to move on the average players in our squad.

Well as a united fan I have every right to voice my opinion and if I don't think he's good enough I will voice it. Certainly not pointless IMO. What are we all as fans supposed to sit there and be content whatever?

We are mad with cash. It's is United. Is it right? No it's fecking not, lingard really has raped us here

to be fair, united make c. £400m a year in revenues, and the typical wages:income ratio is 50-60%.

that would allow them to pay £200m odd a year in wages, which would allow you to pay 12 players an average of £200k a week (some on £120k, some £150k, some 250-300k) = £125m, another 12 c. 100k a week = £62m, and still have another £13m left over to pay the kids £10k a week.

So because we are a big club we have to offer him a 100k?
Spurs are better then us at the moment. I bet Alli is on the same or even less. As is Kane and probably Eriksen

I bet Mane and Coutinho are probably on around the same if not much more

He also English and home grown which helps

And he knows how to follow out Joses orders on the pitch which other more favoured players can't.

Spurs have a wage cap as far as I'm aware which means Kane probably is on less than Lingard but that wage cap is worse for the club in the long term because they will always have a limit to their ambitions

.............................

There is a lot in this.

We just don't have a CM midfield player, for example, anywhere near like Nicky Butt. Our back up strikers just don't compare to OGS. Lee Sharpe being back up to Giggsy.

lingard really has raped us here
----------------------------
I thought I was the one getting upset

Do you know how contracts work? If you go into your bosses office and demand your wages tripled, do they just "get raped" or do they laugh at you? UTD clearly think it is worth rewarding such players.

It might be mad to us, but he has not done anything wrong here...

maths aside though, i still query the negotiations at united...you're on £30k a week jesse? and you want £80k? how does £100k sound?

on manc's point i think alli doubled his wages with his last contract, to £50k a week, and kane is on c. £100k. liverpool (i think) tend to put quite a few performance related elements into their contracts, so i doubt coutinho/mane are on more than £100k basic.

and, of course, as far as we know, neither is lingard. i'd like to think that there are incentives being built into contracts as standard - not "have an extra £5m each if we win the league", but "we'll pay you £50k a week, and if we win the PL we'll make that £80k"

We should have a wage cap for Sheite players. How about that one

posted on 6/4/17

And yes, we are a big club so should offer him big wages

This is a guy who came through the system and helped us win 2.5 trophies with his goals

£100k per week isn't even mental money anymore

No more mental than a £30 million transfer fee.

2007 called and it wants its faux outrage back

some sense

It's like people forget that the media likes to create clickbait.

Jose likes average players. Fellaini to get 200k and a 5 year deal. That's next
