zolayes 14,489 Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 He gets my full support...er...till he fucks up......in fact can I be the first to BOOOOOOOOOO him now ?I think because of the saga of his signing fans may be more critical if he doesn't deliver quickly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Idiot 71 Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 Whats wrong 80.000 a week sounds enormous but its quite normal to overpay players only because they are english. And tbh most of you talk like he is an fuckin average player who will never start a game for us and thats totally wrong. David Luiz will get many problems to stay in the team imo.I'm glad that we will have 3/4 of the national team defence! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spike 12,049 Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 I don't like him. Fucking overpaied and overpriced Pom bastard. Bloody English players like him, they are a dime a dozen.The world needs more Le Tissiers and Lampards and less Rooneys and Gerrards.

BlueLion. 21,491 Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 Overpaid and overpriced? So are Cole, Lampard, Terry, Cech, Drogba, Torres, Essien, and 95% of the squad. What's your point? If he comes in and plays well, I won't complain.And I'd rephrase your post if I were you, because there are a lot of 'Poms' on here that would taken offence to that.

Kostas 1,468 Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 Not glad with the rumored terms of the deal, 7m and 80k p/w, but they're just that, rumored. Every major trustworthy site/source has actually pointed that out to be on the safe side. Only Mirror in their "exclusive" appear sure and that's saying something.Anyway, since it's a matte of hours now, welcome to Chelsea Gary.

Peace. 4,352 Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 You must be stressed out keeping on top of the clubs finances... oh wait, why do you care?Why does he care ? Just because he cares about the club, and paying an average player this wage is bad for us in several aspects. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Idiot 71 Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 I hope you are wrong about Luiz ,,,he could become MAGNIFICENT for usright, but its a far way to go for him. and right now cahill is the better option. I'd love to see Luiz in CDM in a 4-2-3-1 but this will always be a dream Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry for actually caring about our club making sane financial decisions, kind of worrying we can only attract a player of the calibre of Cahill for such wages (at least, so it seems).

nullabletype 987 Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 Why does he care ? Just because he cares about the club, and paying an average player this wage is bad for us in several aspects.Maybe I'm crazy, but you would think... you would indeed think, that a business man, a multi billionaire no less, such as Mr. Roman Abramovich, owner of Chelsea F.C. would have an experienced finance department who have all the money issues under control. I dare say it's pretty much sown up. So again, why does he/you care? If the club has made the informed decision based on all the financial information they have at hand, that they can afford to pay Gary Cahill 80K a week, then I think we can trust the deal is okay.I'll never understand why when it comes to money issues within the club, why some fans all of a sudden think they're the Chancellor of the Exchequer. Sorry if myself and many other posters don't take hyperbolic financial posts seriously. It's just, you know, none of you guys have the balance books sitting in front of you. So you couldn't possibly be in a position to make accurate posts about how much we can afford to spend on/pay players.Stressed out, nahh. Sorry for actually caring about our club making sane financial decisions, kind of worrying we can only attract a player of the calibre of Cahill for such wages (at least, so it seems).Based on?

But when you think about the fact that Drogba is on 100k a week, a contract he signed when he was still one of the best strikers around (also taking into account that attackers always get paid a lot more money), and read Cahill will receive 80k week, it doesn't seem right to me. You don't have to agree with me but that's just how I feel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't have to agree with me but that's just how I feel.If you're reasoning was based on the financial state of the club then I'd point to my post above. You say it's not, it's about the comparison of wages between players, which seems even weirder to me. Of what concern is that to you? In fact, lets bring it back a step. None of the players on the team are worth 50K a week, because no athlete is. So if you're disappointed with the alleged wage that Cahill is going to receive, why not take umbrage with all the players wages? More so, why don't we wait until he's actually pulled on a blue shirt and put in a few performances before we start judging whether he's worth his wages or not.

So you couldn't possibly be in a position to make accurate posts about how much we can afford to spend/pay players.I care because it sends a wrong message. We were already at a top level with Kalou and his £60k-a-week wage, now we have reached a whole new level. For instance, Modirc is on a £40k-a-week wage. Malouda when he was one of our very best player has signed a £80k-a-week wage. Mata who was a proven good player with a lot of potential is on a £60k-a-week wage. I can't understand how an average defender (yes, because defenders are always less paid than forwards, both in wage and transfer fees) could earn 80k per week !What's now when will try to sign a player of the caliber of Mata and offer him a £70k-per-week wage, he will laugh out loud.And I don't need to have the club's books to know that we were trying to reduce our wage bill, and this transfer is against this.

I didn't mean or want to offend anyone. I got defensive because I though you were being aggresive.I'm pretty insecure about Australia and tend to be very beligerent with Englishmen and New Zealanders. I've never had a problem with any other nationality of the British Isles though . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ulsterchelsea 3,221 Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 The amount the club decides to pay players is immaterial to us as fans, its what the club has decided they are willing to pay avbs NUMBER 1 choice. People can complain all they want about the money hes reportedly going to earn but its pointless because very little in the world of football finances makes any sence. People can continue to say its a lot for just a bolton player but he is the first choice for avb ..that's good enough for me ktbffh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
