Presumptions? Did I blatantly outright say that what he earns is true? Have been using the word 'reportedly' in the discussion, to suggest assuming 'IF' it's true.

IF what the media are saying about his wages is true, then 77k p/w wages for a 23 year old whose experience so far has only come in Germany looks even more ridiculous. And even with the potential, it doesn't explain that reported wages right now. It's only potential. Doubt he has a higher ceiling than most of young players in the first team right now. As for the comparison with Mata, I didn't bring up the comparison because it was you that started comparing Schurrle's wages with others first. Only went down that road because you decided to draw it towards that direction to justify his wages.

Can't be bothered to argue this point. He's earning a fair wage in my opinion if the reports are true and I initially objected to the idea that we had a recent history of overpaying players, which I really don't think we do.

The Mata wage is an outlier.

That's pretty much it though. I have a 'one argument with a mod at a time' rule and somebody else is being a real bellend elsewhere.

Hazard,Mata, KDB can play 60 games a season each

Can they? This season Mata and Hazard sure did but we didn't do very well in the league, now did we? At times they looked fucking exhausted and we certainly would have done better if we had more useful players in the squad than Moses and Benayoun to replace them with. To be successful in the league and not just the cup competitions we need a bigger squad than we did this year. The manager needs to have the right approach and use all players accordingly and not just field the same 11 players week-in week-out because sooner or later things will go sideways. If we just trusted Mata and Hazard to play another 60 games next season, we would be bound to suffer when they get tired and in case they got injured we'd be truly fucked over.

Manchester United are the perfect example here. As a team they played 54 games last season but only a handful of their players appeared in over 40 games while most of them only played between 30-38 matches. With a relatively low amount of matches most of their players won't have the chance to get insane records like Juan Mata this season but at the end of the day the only thing that matters is the team's success and not the individuals.

Yeah yeah why are we need him, we already have too many!?

Bayern - Ribery, Robben, Kroos, Shaqiri, Muller add 40m Gotze.

BFC - about six top attackers add 55m Neymar.

I think with Marin, Moses we still short in quality compared to top teams. We easily can have both KdB and Schurrle in the squad and even more - someone older who not so desperate for regular football but good professional. It will only benefit for the team. We need this quality to push our top players like Hazard, Oscar - it will make them better.

£18m for a player only one club was chasing.

Even Madrid & City get a bargain from time to time. Us on the other hand.......

Recent examples off the top of my head - KDB, £7m. Courtois, £5m. Ba, £7.5m. You were saying? I'm quite sick of you trying to use almost anything to blast the club tbh.
