lecter 84 Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 I really think we should tie him down (offer him a long-term contract) this season. We should not wait for the next, it being his last year in contract. His head can be turned, considering hes still a youngster and a great prospect for all the top clubs of Europe. I would hate a Nasri-esque situation at Chelsea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomo 21,751 Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 I thought Sturridge was on 60k?If so we should offer him a (relitevely low, term used loosely) deal of 70k a week, he will probally make a counter offer of 90-100k then we work it out somewhere inbetween.

Tomo 21,751 Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 we seriously need to bring our total wage bill down.lower basics and more performance relatedLetting go the 30+ on over 100k a week will be a start, and i include Lamps in that.Agree about the performance related bonus's aswell, will be a fanastic incentive to win things, not that they should need it.

Fernando 6,585 Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 Definitely ! But the last deal we've made suggests that we aren't on the way to do so.If you are talking about Cahill, Kostas in the Cahill thread explained this nicely.When you buy a player for free or with little time left in his contract you usally end up paying more in wages.

So if we really wanted to lower our wage bill, we wouldn't have answered to his demand. Since we had, it shows that we are not really looking for having a lesser wage bill.

Mata is on less, because of the fee we payed for him.Torres was the mistake as we payed a lot and gave him big wages, cause before that and after that Chelsea has been trying to lower the wages down.Cahill let his contract run down so the premium that was lost, would be gain on wages.

Henrique 9,133 Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 It was on Times, and it wont surprise me if its true.One thing I dont like Sturridge is his attitude, he is really selfish, usually If you are selfish on the pitch, you are also selfish in your life.

But Cahill is neither the next big thing, nor the kind of player which will win us the Champions League. If he was one of these two options, the fact we have given him a big wage would have been understandable, on both marketing and sportive level. Thus, in my opion, it proves that if we can lower the wage bill, we do it, but if we can't, it doesn't bother us that much. I mean, if it was truly one of our utmost aims, we would have passed to the B plan.It was on Times, and it wont surprise me if its true.Yep, that's because it's coming from The Times I've asked if someone could get the article, since it does look much more reliable than the Daily Mail.

ja1 1,166 Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 Sturridge is on 65k a week and how do you know he wants 80-100k? Welbeck wants the same as Sturridge is on. Let's not make a mountain out of a molehill if Sturridge gets higher wages he is on. It would not be on the level Terry or Lampard are on and more likely where Cahill is, and he is more entitled to that than CahillWe have done well in lowering the wage bill in some places. Our best players are all on lower wages than usual. Romeu is on 20k, Ramires, Ivanovic and Luiz all on 40-60k, Sturridge and Mata on 65k. What we've done wrong is giving long term high pay contracts to 31 and 32 year old Drogbas and Lampards and just one word - Torres.

ja1 1,166 Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 But another problem is that players will ask for high wages as we have built a reputation as a club that gives high wages out. Now we are trying to lower it while still getting players who will be some of the best in the squad (not Cahill but we will attempt to sign players that fit that description soon) and therefore ask for big wages Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

francozola 2,040 Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 At the end of the day if the player is greedy enough to hold the club for ransom, then I say fuck him. I don't want people like that at our club, no matter how talented they are. The club always comes first.We need to start sending out a message that we are not prepared to just pay 100k for any tom dick or harry that can kick a football. Unfortunately like Peace said, our last transfer does not help at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
